You simply cannot use the same criteria to review the latest Broadway offering, and a new potty-humour comedy.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you about getting to know a reviewer's style and biases. The Toronto Sun's Bruce Kirkland and Liz Braun are good examples of reviewers whose opinions generally run almost 180 degrees opposite to mine. If Bruce Kirkland gave it a zero out of five stars, I'm likely to look forward to a good movie going experience. Likewise, a bad review from Liz Braun is automatic for any movie starring Bruce Willis or Kevin Costner. I don't think she even bothers going to those ones any more.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
