That guy still reviews movies? Haven't heard his name mentioned in a long while.

And this is why he is still a virgin.

on Rotten Tomatoes. What a troll. Actually, I don't know if you've read his review, but it's not as negative as I thought it would be. He doesn't like the movie, to be sure (and I for one am unlikely to see it), but he's not completely panning it. I often disagree with Mr. White's opinions--he gleefully spits on many of my favorite movies--but I find his willingness to buck the trend and the status quo refreshing. He may be a contrarian just for contrarianism's sake, but, sometimes, even that is necessary when all critics simply beat to the same drum.

It's an interesting review. While Mr. White and I don't always see eye-to-eye, he is by far my favorite critic to read. He's well-spoken, intelligent, and always offers a unique perspective I enjoy.

There's a saying among journalists (although I'm not sure film critics would count themselves among that tribe): "Report the news - don't become the news." White is now so notorious you can find whole articles about him, a particularly illuminating one you can read here: ew.com/article/2014/01/13/armond-white-kicked-out-of-ny-critics/

No less, he spoils the movie in the first sentences.

So you're saying it's all whitey's fault? Or is that the theme of the movie?
