What excites critics at Rotten Tomatoes? Here are the top rated films now in theaters.
“Pillion” - Gay drama - “A timid man is swept off his feet when an enigmatic, impossibly handsome biker takes him on as his submissive.” Eighty-three critics, each of whom loved it: 100%.
“Killer of Sheep” - Life as a wonderful Black man in LA, and his oppression: 98%.
“Young Mothers” - Single mothers are wonderful and triumphant: 95%.
“Put Your Soul on Your Hand and Walk” - Palestinians in Gaza are wonderful and oppressed: 98%.
"The great March of destruction will go on. Everything will be denied. Everything will become a creed. It is a reasonable position to deny the stones in the street: it will be a religious dogma to assert them. It is a rational thesis that we are all in a dream: it will be a mystical sanity to say that we are all awake. Fires will be kindled to testify that two and two make four. Swords will be drawn to prove that leaves are green in summer." - G.K. Chesterton
These Leftist film critics are not mad. They are programming us, molding our minds. The Left’s has run this revolution since ~1964, slowly transforming us into something different. Their dominance of the education, entertainment, and press industries quickly normalizes each change. Then we forget we were once different. And eventually look at our past America as evil or inferior.
Now grade school children read gay porn, something that in 1960 would have had mobs of parents rioting. They’ll grow up and see “Pillion” as cutting-edge in its day.
If we won’t defend America, let’s not whine about these changes.
It really depends. Movies are often good or bad for reasons other than their politics, and it's limiting to praise or dismiss them simply because of what they believe, or even worse, because of who created them - the world of criticism is so much bigger than "woke" or "not woke." Look at Jordan Peele's "Us," for instance. I'd heard mixed things about that movie, but when I watched it for the first time, I was blown away by how intelligent and well-acted it was, and chalked the controversies up to some of Peele's more politically charged comedy bits from the past. Of course, there's another side to this.
There are many movies out there looking to capitalize on cultural movements to make a quick buck, and almost all of them are, thankfully, products of their time that are quickly forgotten. On top of that, the more movies you watch, the less you'll tend to care about their politics. Movies become less about the message they're probably parroting from another movie, and more about how well their moving parts mesh. I would know; I've watched and written an article-length review about 150+ of them in the last year. A movie is not necessarily worth it simply because it is not woke, an already-subjective adjective, and it is not necessarily otherwise just because it might be.
I am aware of a "don't trust the critics" movement. It's easy to look at aggregations and bottom lines. I've found that actually reading the reviews and focusing on their subtleties is priceless.
