The thing I like about Siskel and Ebert is that you always get the feeling
from them that there's nothing they'd rather be doing than sitting in
a theater, surrounded by an audience, munching on popcorn and watching a
movie.  (Notice I didn't say "film" or "cinema".)  With some critics
(Pauline Kael is an example) you get the feeling they'd rather not mix with
the riff-raff at most theaters, and would prefer watching only "important
films" at private screenings.  I think that movie critics should at least enjoy 
going to the movies!
