Film Criticism Quotes

Film critics said I gave a voice to the fear we all have: that we'll reach a certain point in our lives, look around and realize that all the things we said we'd do and become will never come to be - and that we're ordinary. Ann Bancroft
Now it turns out that a few broadsheet film critics in Britain do indeed belong to a category of people who would have resisted Hitler when he came to power. So the great shame is, clearly film critics should have been running Austria at the time, because Hitler would have represented no problem to them at all. [The Guardian's] Peter Bradshaw would have known exactly what to do, and he would not have been remotely fallible to any Nazi who threatened his life. No, he would have died in heroic... David Hare
Many French directors, having now realised there was no more real criticism, that the standards of the past have gone, are very offended about the quality of film criticism. Wim Wenders
John Milius quote: "I mean, the old film critics just excoriated me."
I mean, the old film critics just excoriated me. John Milius
I despise the phony, fancy-pants rhetoric of professors aping jargon-filled European locutions - which have blighted academic film criticism for over 30 years. Camille Paglia
Of course the French are making very credible movies and it is still one of the greatest nations in terms of world cinema but the real problem is the decay in film criticism. Wim Wenders

The culture of independent film criticism has totally gone down the drain and this seems to come with the territory of the consumer age that we are now living in. Wim Wenders
Chris Rock quote: "No film critic's going to say it, but 'Madagascar 3' is better..."
No film critic's going to say it, but 'Madagascar 3' is better than 'The Artist.' Chris Rock
My favorite laser disk ever was the laser disk for The Graduate, which had a commentary track that wasn't even the filmmakers, it was a professor, some film criticism guy who just happen to be this amazing commentator who went off into the whole theory of comedy. Jay Roach
Quentin Tarantino quote: "If I wasn't a film-maker, I'd be a film critic. It's the only..."
If I wasn't a film-maker, I'd be a film critic. It's the only thing I'd be qualified to do. Quentin Tarantino
I'll tell you, I think that the Internet has provided an enormous boost to film criticism by giving people an opportunity to self publish or to find sites that are friendly. Roger Ebert
I love magazines and film critics, so I eat it up. I'm not one of those people who says 'I never read anything.' I generally read all of it. Judd Apatow
I still think like a critic, and I still analyze films like a critic. However, it's not possible to write criticism if you're making films. Paul Schrader
People think I'm against critics because they are negative to my work. That's not what bothers me. What bothers me is they didn't see the work. I have seen critics print stuff about stuff I cut out of the film before we ran it. So don't tell me about critics. Jerry Lewis
