Ok, where to start ?
1. I guess you never actually did read any critic written by a French cinema critic because you would never have dared to say what you said about them. French critic are a caricature of themselves, writing critics that nobody can even start to understand in the most pedantic language ever invented and meaning absolutely nothing just to show off how much they are intelligent. Nobody in France gives a shit about the French critics. They are crazy.

2. Transformers 2 is indeed a threat to the brain of any normal human being.

3. What do we expect from movie critics ? To tell us if the movie is good or not, if it is entertaining, intelligent, well acted. I don’t care what the movie says about cinema or society or whatever when I read a critic. I care *after* I have watched the movie, if it was good enough that I want to have a discussion about it. And for that I have discussion groups on the internet.
