A Mensch and a Scholar and a Sly Wit

“I don’t have any clever rants, trolls, snarcky witticisms to add to these comments. I just like Joe’s reviews and have read them for a long time. His reviews are thoughtful, often funny, insightful and, above all, humane. They shy away from the usual cinemato-speak of auteurs and genres. They remind me that humans watch movies to be entertained, not exploited, and that they can really add emotional dimensions to our lives. Even some schlock ones. But, whew! if your movie tries to exploit the good will of the audience, his wit can be a runaway slicer and dicer. If you read his review of, “The Sound of Music” (last century, guys) you’ll know what I mean. .”

“If a movie reviewer has many haters who bash him for criticizing movies like Twilight then he has to be good. Seriously, do you want to read or listen to a critic who loves every big movie release or someone who is willing to emphasize things he doesn't like? I'd choose the second.”Read full review »

“Your review of Alita Battle Angel serves to express your age and "tired old grumpy man" status in life. Retire, go dust off the trinkets you've collected and allow someone with taste a chance to express themselves. I'm on your lawn with my dog, and I am not cleaning it up.”Read full review »

“I enjoy the host's voice, but the reviews don't often tell enough about the film, and sometimes I can't even tell by the end if the critic is recommending the movie or not.”Read full review »
