Hi pls make me a film critic what's the pay

Annabelle

This movie is set in the 60s, a time when there was very much racism, which was really bad. However, the movie completely fails to confront racism as a really bad thing, thereby tacitly endorsing it, and instead chooses to spend the entire time focussing on souls and hell dolls, which was confusing because I'm pretty sure those aren't even real. It's a really bad racist movie but the doll made me scared sometimes.

Dolls: 1/10
America's Racist Legacy: 0/10
Kinda Spooky: 6/10
Hell: Not Real
Or Is It??? 4/10
OVERALL: 11/50


Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

This is a really good movie that has lots of symbols. Of the ones I counted: Alexander represents the global proletariat, his birthday party represents material fulfillment, the school system represents hegemonic first-world oppression and alienation, Dick van Dyke represents God, Celia represents women, and the whole gameing job subplot is a subtle shout-out to #gamergate. That's six metaphors and I enjoyed them all, but I have a suspicion that Celia doesn't have a dick which is erasure, and I saw a product label which is really degrading corporate shilling for an artform like Disney movies to engage in, so -10 for each of those

Lots of Symbolism: 60/10
Transphobia: -10/10
Commercialism: -10/10
OVERALL: 40/50
