Cinephiles with WiMax: Five Great Sources for Film Reviews

While plenty of people who love films have opinions on their favorites, it's a bit tougher to know what to think of movies that have not yet been seen. And while those living in smaller towns with local film critics who might not share tastes used to be out of luck, in the world of the information superhighway, it's a whole lot easier to get an informed opinion, and even to get the chance to watch a film online, too. This has been a major game-changer in the approach to viewing, and it's a fun and exciting way to learn what the big winners at film festivals are around the world, as well as to pick out content for one's own viewing at home.

For those with WiMax and dreams of seeing the next great piece of work, rather than a pale indie film comparison, here are five great sources for film reviews online. Blockbusters these are not, but pertinent they will always be.

#1 - Roger Ebert. Whether it's his official site or his column running somewhere else, or perhaps even the chance to watch his new show "At the Movies" online, Roger Ebert is committed to doing more for the world of cinema than just talking about the big blockbusters. Whether it's hiring a young crop of diverse correspondents to do their own reviews or being able to cross-reference his own old content, WiMax users who care about the world of cinema will really appreciate his take on reviews.

#2 - Rotten Tomatoes. Sure, the content here is often mainstream fare, but those art house films that do get picked up will be indexed well, too, according to how many people review them. And for anyone who wants to look at the track record of a favorite critic, there is no better source out there to see exactly what he or she had to say about a wide range of different cinematic moments.

#3 - The film festival's official websites. For the latest information on what critics who have just seen a film are thinking, then it's often great to go directly to the source with one's browser; the website of the film festival in question will have plenty of accolades or real-talk. While this might sometimes veer towards the advertising and commercial side of things, the fact is that it can be a great way to find out what people are saying about films that aren't even out yet.

#4 - The blogosphere. This is a matter of personal taste for WiMax users, since one person's blogger hero is another person's most annoying text on the world wide web. Be smart, be brave, and do some poking around out there; finding someone whose tastes are similar but whose writing is superior won't take long at all.

#5 - Vice Magazine. It might sound silly, but these pop culture critics are often better while being overly smarmy than many people who claim to be astute manage to be while staying calm and collected. Also a great source for interesting stories about foreign countries and obscure art movements.
