When's the last time this old queen was relevant (if ever)? He takes some ridiculously ignorant shots at the Coens in his review of True Grit.

I can understand people who don't really get the Coens movies and don't like them, but to for a RT supposed "Top Critic" to make such asinine statements is surprising.

I was disappointed with it but I'd still give it a B or B+. It just wasn't GREAT imo.
But that review is just ridiculous.

talk about pretentious. I love the Coens, but not everybody on the planet has to fawn over every single move they make. They aren't above criticism. And have you even seen this movie yet? Perhaps some is warranted.

I have seen the enemy and his name is Rex Reed.

He's pretty goofy. He attended Natchitoches High School. My sister was one of his best friends. You can't take the guy very seriously.

One sentence in and it's pretty clear this guy is an idiot.
