The whole thing about show your “credentials” before you criticise/review is necessary and overrated. The producer who objected to an earlier review was just being defensive; reveals a lot about his/her own insecurities and intellectual shortcomings.
We don’t have to be filmmakers to have views on films. (Same as we don’t have to be soldiers to comment on the horrors of war!) Your reviews are insightful, honest and hugely entertaining in their own right. The only negative thing, for me, is that I have not been able to watch the movies you review because a) they never got to the country where I live – although I am now in Malaysia and b) I suspect they’re in BM, and I do not speak BM.

Thoroughly enjoy your reviews!
