The passing of legendary critic Rex Reed at 87 marks more than just the end of a career—it feels like the end of an era. There was a time before the "Tomatometer" when movie reviews were about personality, passion, and a genuine love for cinema. Today, everything feels optimized for engagement. Are we losing the soul of film criticism?
In this video, we’re looking back at the titans of the industry—Rex Reed, Roger Ebert, and Gene Siskel. These weren't just names in a byline; they were celebrities who shaped the way we watched movies. We explore why their "acerbic" honesty was actually a sign of deep respect for the art form, and how modern review culture might be making us settle for less.
