Critics Are Wrong

Do critics matter?

What is the point of movie critics?

Their purpose is to describe the plot, characters, director, etc in order to help determine whether or not a film should be seen. Film criticism is the study, interpretation and evaluation of a film with regard to issues such as historical context, theory or technical analysis.
