ROGER EBERT AND THE KINGDOM OF THE SINGLE SENTENCE
two thumbs up indeed.
Roger Ebert was the first film critic ever to win a
Pulitzer Prize. He should win a second for this line
alone:
I can say that if you liked the other Indiana Jones movies, you will like this one, and that if you did not, there is no talking to you.
That's more than just a review of the film; it's a review of all films, film reviews, and film-goers. Those 29 words are, I promise you, more wise and clear and readable than any critique you'll read of the film in the next few weeks. Or maybe ever.
