Everything Wrong with...

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.

Someone should tell the Cinema Sins staff that nit-picking and fault-finding is only entertaining if there's actually a point to it. The original episodes had a semblance of insightful commentary because the "sins" were legitimate issues that the audience could laugh about. However, it has since devolved into pointless pedantry, non-issues and irrelevant in-jokes. Even worse, many of the so-called mistakes they uncover are actually just total misunderstandings, misinformation and fabrications. I wonder if they even watch these films anymore.

I love this program. But to me, it's not as good as Screen Rant/Pitch Meetings, or Honest Trailers. Everything pointed out on CinemaSins is not a sin. Some are sins. Some are just interesting observations.

I believe every movie and TV show doesn't have to be perfect, or even totally realistic or logical. Yes, there is a line. But every movie and TV show is not a factual documentary. Drama and fiction need some artistic leeway. They are supposed to be entertaining. And viewers should be smart enough to know the difference between truth and fiction.

But still, I find this series informative and entertaining. But I know the difference between truth and fiction.

Screen Rant/Pitch Meeting 10, Honest Trailers 9, Everything Wrong with . . . 8.

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.
