I almost always write my review immediately after seeing the film and tend to write from 1) my initial gut reaction, and, 2) with total, utter, undisguised bias (i.e., I dislike Jack Nicholson immensely so it's fair to say any film with him in it I'm gonna pan ... even if Jack was outstanding). Sure people take issue with this approach (but like I care!).
I capture my thoughts in a paragraph (or very occasionally two) cause I don't wanna read reams of deep meaningful twaddle on the subtleties of a film or a film-maker. Can you say: boring!
All this to say here's a *raspberry* to Bergan and his ilk, and long live us common folk reviewers!
