Are Film Critics a Dying Breed?

I think film criticism can be found all over YouTube. As far as professional film critics as a part of journalism I very rarely listen to their criticism or take it seriously. It's either out of touch from reality or reeks of elitism.

I hope not. I like to do it and would like to get to a point where I could at least make some money from it so I can afford to keep doing it as well as I can. Reading a review increases my understanding about film, about life, and about writing in general. Its a thing I love to do the most and I hope that starting a conversation about each film is beneficial to not just me but to those reading it.


If anyone's interested, I reviewed the Killers of the Flower Moon on my youtube channel. Appreciate any feedback. Trying to improve - https://youtu.be/yPw8aQ8KDiw
