Medved AND O'Reilly? Now there's a brain trust if I ever saw one. I'd rather eat urinal cakes with my morning orange juice than watch these two morons whine about Clint Eastwood's brilliant movie because they were "offended" by it's intriguing plot developements.

Medved especially is a disappointment. What happened to the man who gave aspiring film critics the world over reason to celebrate with his legendary 1980 book the Golden Turkey Awards (and coined the idea that Plan 9 From Outer Space is the "worst" film ever made)? When did he get replaced by a grumpy, obnoxious, rude Hollywood-basher disguised as a movie critic?

Were the body snatchers somehow involved?


I may agree with Medved on a lot more foreign and economic policy issues than the far-left-winger Roger Ebert, but damned if Medved can't even hold a candle to Ebert as a movie critic. "A movie is not about WHAT it's about; it's about HOW it's about it".

I saw the segment on replay last night. O'Reilly had another critic opposite Michael. O'Reilly had seen the movie this past weekend and he liked it. He disagreed with Michael.
