Default Re: Favorite movie critics and styles of reviews

Joe Bob Briggs, aka John Bloom, had a movie-review collumn in the Dallas paper 25 years ago. It was called Joe Bob Goes to the Drive-in. He was fired for being politically incorrect. Luckily, his stuff is on the internet. Here are samples:

Killer Sex Queen from Cyberspace

la femme nikita

A critic's job is to tell you whether or not you want to spend the time and money on a flick. Joe Bob does this admirably. Phat mack says check it out.

I used to have a book that was a collection of that column with the same title I think. It was a paperback book and fell apart long ago. I agree with your comments and add my recommendation for Joe Bob Briggs. He rules in buckets of blood.
