CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Kodie Bird True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Edwin The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

josephtheowl If there ever was a time we needed "The Critic", now, ladies and gentlemen, is that glorious time.With more crap films being made now more than ever, we need a show that's unafraid to bash them mercilessly. "The Critic" was such a well-rounded cartoon with funny characters who were slinging random, situational jokes long before "Family Guy" was a twinkle in Seth MacFarlane's eye.Sadly, "The Critic" is just one of many shows cut down in their prime. I think in the day and age of "Aqua Teen Hunger Force" being on the rise and "The Simpsons" being on the wane, this show would be very successful among adults who realize how nonsensical movies have become.

jdollak I cannot in good conscience, give this series higher than the 8 I just gave it. It's a very good series, significantly better than lots of shows that maintain an audience. The humor had a difficult time reaching a certain balance. There was humor that was cerebral enough to miss most of the audience. There was unpredictable nonsensical humor, to appeal to a different audience. Then, there was more humor that was not especially clever, and too predictable or juvenile. This mix is part of what led to the downfall. Any of the audiences that would have appreciated each element separately disappeared because the show felt sub-par to them.While I take this as a weakness, once this is an understood problem, the show is very enjoyable. There is a lot of heart inserted to the characters, the stories are far more interesting than most of the modern-era Simpsons episodes.If you feel like you miss the golden days of the Simpsons - seasons 3-5, then go watch these, and it'll be a nice, fresh fix of that kind of writing.

FrankBooth_DeLarge The Critic was popular while it lasted, but it didn't last very long. Sometimes the show was very funny, sometimes it was very absurd, and other times it was very lame.Most of the characters were interesting, even though a couple of characters were very annoying. Jon Lovitz was great with his voice work that he provided for the show.This wasn't a bad show, but it wasn't nearly as good as animated shows like Beavis and Butthead, The Simpsons, South Park, or Family guy. If it was that good, then it would have lasted much longer.This is worth watching if you ever do get to see it, but don't expect to see a legendary animated show.

moviemystic Poster Mr. Doright on this board got it wrong. The Critic was NOT made bySimpsons creator Matt. The two shows just happened to share the sameproducer - James L. Brooks - that's all. Matt has never drawn, plotted norotherwise created The Critic in any way, shape or form. As to Matt's all-time masterpiece, many (including Matt himself) argue that it was his excellent pre- Simpson's comic strip, Life In Hell. Regretably, Matt has gone from makingalmost no money in a much freer creative environment to making lots of moneyin an increasingly more restrictive environment, which usually leads to friction, in this case between him and Brooks, who has had it made in the shade since a very young age, due to the fact that his daddy was already a behind the scenes Hollywood bigshot.
