Do you guys read/watch movie reviews

Tools    





Very rarely. I'm sure the top 0.5% would be worth watching, but figuring out what those are reliably is pretty tough. The overwhelming majority are entirely unnecessary. By that, I don't mean that they're not good (though most aren't), I mean that they make no real attempt to be insightful. It's just sort of "I liked this, I didn't like that." As if the goal were just to have a record of the opinion, rather than think about it, talk about it, let other people know what to expect, etc.
This is kind of the point to a blog I started. Just a short record of my opinions on movies so someone with similar taste may be able to find some recommendations. I try to avoid spoiling anything, personally I love surprise. My netflix queue is long and ordered so by the time I get a movie, I'm usually unsure of the plot details. I wouldn't dare read a review before watching a movie, I do read them on movies I liked strongly or disliked strongly, very rarely on everything else between.
