Lack of self reflection
The reviewers on this podcast appear repeatedly unable to separate what a feeling a movie evokes in them from how they feel about said movie. Like art, movies that make them feel a way they’d prefer not to feel are not “bad movies”. Yet when a movie evoked for them the desire to push away from what they truly felt, they confused their desire to avoid their feelings with a desire to avoid the movie. In essence, movies (art) evoked their real emotions and instead of realizing the real thing that art had evoked, they panned the movie. The essence of a bad movie is that it makes you feel nothing; a dull or uninteresting film. Professional movie reviewers shouldn’t repeatedly fall into this trap. 1 Star.
