Josh Gilchrist

Tomatometer-approved critic
Biography:

I'm a 27 year old Habilitational Specialist who is giving thought to going back to school to get a masters in counseling. My interest in film criticism started about 11 years ago and is still going strong today. What's the number one thing any film critic must have? The guts to pan a film you hate, even though everyone else likes it.

Favorites:

The Wizard Of Oz Touch Of Evil Dr. Strangelove The Truman Show Battleship Potemkin
