Review
Do we really need to read reviews to watch a movie?
Does the purpose of review is merely to make people watch the movie or not??
I just got into this writing from having heard many conversations on a films release and people discuss the number of stars a film has be given by some website where we don't have any idea about the reviewer.
If we have to choose over films on a weekend can't we choose it ourselves?
I read reviews once i finish watching a film and suggest so for any viewer.
For a maker,its like an evaluation report.
Here are my list of reviewers i look upto
1 Baradwaj Rangan whose articles are published in TheHindu. Here is his blog http://baradwajrangan.wordpress.com/ He is my most revered writer on films.He is awarded National film award for best critic(which i got to know now).
2. Mihir Fadnavis film critic at mid day most known with his blog /http://mihirfadnavis.blogspot.in/
you can follow him https://twitter.com/mihirfadnavis and taste his reccos.
3. Rajeev Masand A known face for any cnn-ibn viewer.
4.Peter Bradshaw http://www.guardian.co.uk/profile/peterbradshaw and
5 Roger Ebert http://rogerebert.suntimes.com/ .
Though i dont agree to all of their views i love to read their reviews.
