    Just form your own opinions instead of looking for someone else’s to parrot.

      How do I use my own opinion about a movie that I have not seen to decide whether I will enjoy the movie or not?

        1. Watch the movie.
        2. Write yourself a review.
        3. Get a concussion strong enough to cause temporarily* amnesia.
        4. Read the review and decide if you would watch the movie.

        *No such a thing.

        You’re asking me how to tell the future? You can’t. Just watch the movie then decide whether you like it. Why do I have to explain this to you?

          Because I don’t want to pay $20 and spend 2 and a half hours to decide whether I wanted to spend $20 and two and a half hours on that thing.

          Reviews exist to help people decide. Of course they won’t be exactly my opinion, but they can tell me whether the experience will be worth my time and money. Or at least if the movie contains stuff that I definitely wouldn’t want to see.
