The most fun part of going to a movie today is guessing which controlled substance was dominating the central nervous system of the critic when they wrote a glowing "must see" review of a film you found utterly beyond redemption.
191movies.com, a website that lists movies people love to watch over and over, has nothing against movie critics. We simply feel that anybody not currently on life support can do a much better job deciding for themselves if a movie is good or not.
It's very simple system. If a movie sounds at all interesting, go watch it. Theatre or rental is up to you. Then, if you get through the whole thing, you ask yourself one question:
Would I watch this again? If the answer is yes, it's a good movie.
Too simple? Consider this. Movie critics spend endless hours worrying about acting, editing, script, photography and direction. While that's all important, it's way more than any of us ever need to know - or care about.
All you need to care about is whether or not you want to own the DVD!
After all, do you buy a DVD with the idea you're going to watch it once and throw it away? Of course not. You buy a DVD because the movie is a keeper - something you can count on to entertain you 10 days or 10 months or even 10 years from now!
That's what really makes a movie great. No matter what kind of day you're having, a movie represents this great experience waiting for you at home. Newman and Redford in Butch Cassidy. DeNiro and Grodin in Midnight Run. Uma in Kill Bill One and Two! Especially Uma in Kill Bill One and Two!
Nobody at http://www.191movies.com/index.html is is a movie critic. We simply watch movies and when we find ourselves watching them a lot of times, we figure that's good enough for us!
So by all means, read the reviews. But depend on yourself. You will always be your own best film critic.
