Hey everyone!
Just a few notes about our film reviews. I don’t usually adhere to a specific grading system, merely what was good about each aspect of the movie or not, and why its a classic or what audience will enjoy. I operate from what VHS and DVDs I may have, plus what I rent or catch on TV.
Feel free to ask why we haven’t reviewed this or when we’re going to review that. Answer is I probably can’t get a hold of it or yeah, I’m getting around to it!
I have a few classic reviews on my personal review archive blog, I Think Therefore I Review, but mostly that is for genre film, books, and music. I have some people asking me why I don’t do more current reviews, but I’ve been to busy in the last few months to go to the theater. Besides, there hasn’t been anything I’ve been dying to see on the big screen. I’m content with my classics!
