Gran Torino

I followed a link from Instapundit to PJTV and to a Siskel & Ebert style review of Gran Torino.

How can I say this in a charitable way?

I have no idea, so let's dispense with the pleasantries and just ask--are you kidding me?

An 18 minute long review of a movie by two physical derelicts with voices made for newsprint.

The hoary critique my "professional" journalist is that bloggers have no editors, but bloggers only represent themselves, not a newspaper or magazine. If you don't like a blogger, you don't read them, but the blogosphere as a whole continues to thrive. PJTV is a more traditional construct, where bad content reflects on the entire enterprise--that's when you need an editor.

Someone needs to tell Roger L. Simon (whose writing, at least, I enjoy...) and Lionel Chetwynd that this is not a friendly format for them and that video movie reviews should be a three minute segment not including outtakes.
