In other words, don’t tell me if you liked it tell me whether or not it does the job for which I’m paying it. Taken together, these have led me to developing some fairly strong opinions about the proper role of criticism: namely, I’m less interested in knowing a critic’s feelings about a particular thing than I am in knowing whether or not that particular thing is worth my time and money. I’ve also been something of a completist nerd about such things for the same length of time, which means I’ve also been a reader of criticism about books, music, and movies for most of my life. Now, I’ve been a book-reader of books, a music-listener, and a movie-watcher for most of my conscious life. If you’ve been reading this blog for any length of time, you’ve probably deduced that I have no shortage of strong opinions about any topic on which I feel well enough educated to have any opinion at all.
