I've been enjoying Ebert since his PBS days

and I totally agree with you. To generalize greatly, there are people who generally like movies and those who generally don't. I am in the first camp with Ebert. I can almost always find something to enjoy in a theater experience, even if the movie is no classic. That doesn't mean I like every movie, but there tends to be something to recommend, a performance, the photography, the music, or something, in most of them that I see. And Ebert is very much on that wavelength. Although I have only seen 4 of his 10 best, and only Millions would probably be on my own 10 best, that's OK.

OTOH, there are film critics, both amateur and professional, who dismiss most movies as populist junk. And then they do give high praise to a few of them. I've got nothing against them, everyone can enjoy life in their own way, but since they are so far from my wavelength, their opinions are not useful to me.
