He wrote something once in defense of taking kids to "inappropriate" movies. I agreed with him and had already been doing just that, but his piece inspired me to take my kids to EVEN MORE (more in number and more in degree) inappropriate movies. Not sure if this was wise. We shall see. I have to start looking at Time Out if you say it is infallible. I love A.O. Scott’s reviews. He wrote something once in defense of taking kids to “inappropriate” movies.

In general, I do trust the EW critics, but Real Steel was a real dud. I also like Michael Phillips and A.O. Scott and miss their version of At the Movies terribly. Ebert is ever more unreliable. I should have consulted Time Out. They are almost infallible, for me. http://www.timeout.com/en_us/film/real-steel Wanderlust was on the list.

But all that sex talk and dating Megan Fox? Bleccch. Suddenly crush was comatose. I hope it can be revived. I ene Have you seen Wanderlust? Highly recommend. I was forced to see Real Steel in the theatre. Even John Carter was better and that was pretty bad. So, if you don't trust EW movie critics, what movie critics do you trust?
