These guys should team up with the Neo-Nazi film critics as some kind of public-access Bizarro-world Ebert & Roeper.

(Dig the Public Service Announcement on "obesity": "Veganism, sports fanatacism, or any other such individual reaction results in a basic ignorance of the systematic realities of imperialism. Obesity is not an individual choice alone ... " Ever-credible Mr. Larouche is unimpressed. )

Nothing like getting a new perspective!
The "creative class people ... use the word "diversity" a lot ... They want to hear different kinds of music and try different kinds of food. They want to meet and socialize with people unlike themselves, trade views and spar over issues."

Another approach to film criticism: the early warning system movie reviews at the Christian Science Monitor. (Sample: Sex/Nudity: 3 instances innuendo. Violence: 5 scenes, including assault. Profanity: 13 strong expressions. Drugs: 3 instances drinking.)
