  1. As future journalist and someone who writes movie reviews it's hard to take all these reviews seriously because you can't know what journalist prefers, what kind of music he likes, anything.

    Because when I watch film, I can review it the way I want. I could shit all over it, but in the same time, I could tell that it's masterpiece. I could even write "black" and "white" review of the film with arguments and in both cases I could be serious.

    Right, but what keeps you from writing your movie reviews in that "black & white" sense? I'm guessing a sense that you must remain as objective as possible, that it is a part of your journalistic duties. Probably the same sense that these critics have when they write their reviews.

    Objectiveness is not as much important in journalism as it used to be. The most important thing today is something called fairness.

    If you read that Austrian review, it's not objective at all. If you want to be objective you shouldn't judge or rate anything, just speak of facts. But then again we couldn't enjoy in positive reviews and shit all over negative ones.

    fairness or not, it still comes down to the critic/reviewer voicing his own opinions on what he sees or hears. can't fault a guy for having opinions, right?
