  If only everyone shared exactly the same opinions on everything cuz you still run into the same problem when people say it’s good, but then you don’t agree after seeing it yourself.

    This.

    Some of my favorite movies are “bad” movies. I’ve got a friend who feels the same way and we SMS each other single line movie titles and just know the other will understand.

    A recent SMS was “poultrygeist night of the chicken dead” … It was fantastic

    A well written review will detail why they thought it was good, so the reader can think about if those reasons would make it enjoyable for them.

    Unfortunately, most people are semi literate and writing at that level is a challenge

    I’ve always thought that if you share an opinion on a movie, you should also share your reasons for having it.
