Last week, I went and saw Catching Fire in the cinema. After
the show, I was asked when would I write the review of the movie. I replied
that I wouldn’t because I didn’t like the show. I was then asked why not.
As some of you may have noticed, every month I would write a
review of a book, movie or game. What some of you might not have noticed is
that I only write reviews of book, movie and games I liked (or at least I do
not dislike).
The reason for this is very simple; I can’t be bothered to
write a review about something I don’t like. In my view, if you like something, it makes
sense to write a review of it to recommend it to others. If you don’t…well, forget
it because maybe others would.
Take Catching Fire for example. It has been top of the box
office for 2 weeks now so there’re a lot of people who like it. I don’t understand
why as I found the movie to be painfully slow and filled with gaping plot-holes
but that’s my view. A lot of people with their wallets do not agree with me.
To these people, I say good for you. I don’t understand why
but to each his own. Just don’t expect me to bother arguing about the book,
movie or game with you because I can't be bothered to.
