Interesting film criticism

Couldn’t find a thread for this, feel free to move this if there is an existing thread.

Here’s a review of Eraser Head by a new mother dealing with postpartum anxiety: http://bobsurlaw.blogspot.com/2017/03/eraserhead-1977-cathartic-watch-for-new.html

Y’all know of any other interesting outsider crit like this?

this is going to sound like a joke but it isn’t: sometimes you will find some interesting stuff if you just trawl imdb user reviews of various films

Yeah this is the kind of stuff I like. His latest review is of the Josie and the Pussycats movie. He talks about its use of product placement as satire, rather than “wow look at this dumb movie.” Good stuff, thanks!
