The Three Word Movie Review!

After rambling on and on about some of my favorite movies last week, I came across a website that has a very simple formula for movie reviews. Here’s what they say about their approach:

"Who has time to read all those boring movie reviews with 'opinions?' Don’t you just want to know what the movie is all about—will you like it? For instance, Public Enemies is all about guns; now if you happen to like that sort of thing, well you get the idea…"

And here are a few examples of reviews you’ll find on that site:

* If you like The Golden Girls, then you will like Fried Green Tomatoes.
* If you like hair plugs, then you will like National Treasure.
* If you like Zach Braff’s self-indulgence, then you will like Garden State.

That got me to thinking about how I could simplify my reviews and came up with:
