Everyone thinks they can write about the movies, but that just makes the good ones stand out ever further, and Chris Ready is one of our very best.
He has been his short and succinct movie reviews on his Disaster Year: 20XX blog for nearly 15 years and they're absolutely brilliant. Zeroing in on new perspectives, and finding surprisingly new things to say about incredibly familiar films. Giving heavy duty thought to Zack Snyder nonsense and finding something to say about all the Friday The 13th movies and all the weird DC animation movies of the past decade.
You can find his work here. I remain deeply jealous of his ability to say so much in such economical terms, barely more than a paragraph or two, and that's all he needs to make a few decent points. Anybody writing about the fun of the movies can afford to be so concise.
