It doesn’t matter where you are in the US, film critics seem to have the very same taste. I mean, how many good movies were made last year? How many good performances? The same ones keep showing up in those critics’ lists, over and over and over again.
What a lack of imagination…
I’m kinda surprised that a movie like Slumdog Millionaire, with subtitles and all, was so popular with Oklahoma critics. I’d have thought that they would have liked stutff that was more mainstream. Perhaps I’m being prejudiced.
