Welcome
to Film-Critiques.com
Who
we are:
Jef and Lyn (want more? check out our individual bio's)
Where we are:
We're near Philadelphia, PA.
Why:
This site was created for the simple reason that we both love movies.
We have made it a sort of "tradition" to see a movie every saturday
night if possible. Barring illness, or maybe other events, or occasionally
when there are just no new movies released worth seeing, we may miss a
week.
How this site works:
On the main "home" page, you will find all the typical navigational
buttons for the site, and the most current movie reviews that we've seen.
It will be the traffic light rating system with a one or two line sentence
trying to sum up the film, to let you know if this movie is worth spending
your hard earned money on. The problem with most movie critics is that
they proceed to either write or talk about the movie being reviewed in
detail. Many times this will give away important plot twists, or even
in some cases the ending of the movie. We like to know as little about
a movie as possible when we go into a theatre.
Go see this movie
Use caution about seeing this movie
Avoid this movie
The reason for the 3 levels is for those movies that may be worth seeing under certain conditions, for example, a science fiction movie might have horrible acting, and a bad plot but might have stunning visual effects. The movie may be overall bad, but a certain actor or actress may have an amazing performance worth seeing, or it may be a mindnumbingly stupid comedy, with no redeeming qualities, but it still might be hilarious. Finally, it may just be a mediocre movie, not great, not bad, but entertaining.
For those of you who do like to know more about a movie before going to go see it, then there will be option to read more, which is our full indepth critique. Maybe you've just seen the movie, and would like to hear our thoughts on it and compare critiques. Maybe we can offer you another viewpoint on a movie that will change your opinion on it.
We hope you'll enjoy this site, that we may save you from spending good money on a horrible film, or sometimes worse yet, losing 2 hours of your life. We would also like to promote any good movie we happen to see, and provide you with an entertaining review of the top hollywood films. We both enjoy some of the lesser known independent films that sometimes slip through the cracks of the industry.
Thanks for visiting Film-critiques.com
