'Rediculous' Customer & Critic Reviews

[JSC]

A few one-line reviews that grabbed my attention.

An amazon review for an anthology of writings by Antonin Artaud

He may look like Conan O'Brien, but he isn't.

A review of an early television show Hollywood Opening Night from 1951

a pleasant, well-lit, well-upholstered vacuum of a show which should kill a half hour of your time as painlessly as possible

A typically acidic review by Ambrose Bierce about some book.

The covers are too far apart.

The covers are too far apart.

This made me laugh. I might make it my go to phrase for when a book is too long.

[domino harvey]

It is a good one. This will always be my favorite one line critique of anything, though

[Grand Wazoo]

These are great but my fave is still zedz's catch-all

Looks like shit. Too many dwarves.

Going through all of Stuart Millard's videos, here's another good all-purpose one: "Because its written by a horny weirdo, everyone's a horny weirdo".

Letterboxd reviews are like shooting fish in a barrel, but I can’t resist posting this because of how benign the film being discussed, 23 1/2 Hours Leave, is.

is it unfunny racist and filled with American propaganda? yes. but the songs are lowkey fire and I actually found it pretty enjoyable.

One thing that is "rediculous" is that when you click on the "tomato score" on Rotten Tomatoes, it now takes you to the audience reviews rather than the critics' reviews, furthering the idea that everyone is a critic now and professional film critics are redundant. Both Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic have overhauled their websites in the past year in ways that I don't think are for the better.
