Everything Wrong with...

This is one of the best youtube tv shows out there.

Jeremy and Chris have real eyes and ears for criticism and talent at being a-holes, but they're still big movie buffs and enjoy their work and I cannot help but admire it! I find it particularly interesting when they remove sins from a movie and in turn demonstrate how undeniably great they are, showing that they indeed have a passion for films. I have subscribed and viewed them for years and always like hearing their thoughts!

Cinemasins is definitely a unique concept with a lot of promise. It's memorable as well, because it pulls it off in terms of presentation. Content is where Cinemasins falls down. While they do raise several legitimate points, it's lined with pedanticness that will go one of two ways: Jeremy will point out meaningless things that will mean nothing to the "average" cinema goer he claims to represent, or will show a lack of understanding of the source material.

It's also billed as a comedy, which would work if their jokes weren't so hit and miss. And when they do "hit" they'll milk an barely-funny joke for everything it's worth (SCENE DOES NOT CONTAIN A LAP DANCE AHAHAHAHAHAHXDDDD).

Not to mention the way they'll occasionally critique a cartoon for simply being a cartoon, or make fun of a movie for making use of basic storytelling techniques like narration. To some extent, it reeks of a screenwriter who's "unique and brilliant" screenplay got rejected one too many times.

Of course, like any series, they're going to have their hits. But their hits are overcrowded by their forgettable videos.

Cinema Sins is just a regular guy poking fun and poking holes in every movie that has sinned, which is every film every made. From tropes, to continuity errors, to calling out the blatantly stupid, he calls it out. His voice is somewhat monotone but I prefer it over someone that is constantly trying to "broadcast guy" his way through the presentation. Some things get boring like the "ex-machina" call-outs, "No", and his extreme bias against exposition. However, if you are looking for some community validation for/against a movie you love/hate, this is a nice vehicle for getting it. He also takes time to remove sins for awesomeness in a movie, but it's rare. If you are on youtube looking for something to watch to pass the time in 15-ish minute tidbits, there are waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay more boring, brain- depleting, complete-trash videos you can watch than Cinema Sins. #PrometheusSchoolOfRunningAwayFromThings

I like his amiable chatty nature as he points out some of the flaws in the script, continuity or plot that bug us too. Although most videos are narrated by just one person, some have more than one and this can be quite amusing.

Some things are never tolerated, DC for instance, and characters who know too much ("NERRRRRRRRRD!") and rightly so. Start like I did with films you like/know and move on. You'll get into them, and then want to add "sins" to the account.

Don't think they hate these films, they don't, but Hollywood (largely the films are those) needs to stay honest. And, yes, the videos (between five and twenty minutes long) do contain spoilers! Enjoy.
