Film Critics United

I stumbled across Film Critics United (http://filmcriticsunited.com/) which seems to be a one man operation by Christopher Armsted. The reviews are enjoyable, but especially so for me because almost every one contains at least one typo. Dirty Pretty Things was an exception: the page was blank.

The mailto: link is labeled "Let Chris How wrong He Is" [sic]. I sent him a list of typos, but have yet to hear back.

The following reviews are worth reading if only for style:

• The Taking of Pelham 1-2-3


• Pan’s Labyrinth
• Star Trek


• Angels and Demons

and especially "Virgin Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors" because among the typos he omitted a word making the review seem a damning confession. About one of the characters Chris wrote:

"His presence in the film I found the most perplexing and I would probably have to watch the film to get a better understanding of his place in the film."

Ah what a difference the word "again" would make.
