Phil Writes Them as He Sees Them: The Introduction

As a sort of, avid, filmgoer I find myself constantly having insightful dialogue - in my head - about my feelings towards almost every film I see. Sometimes though, in the case of something like Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B. Schoedsack's (of King Kong fame) The Most Dangerous Game, a film adaptation of the short story you have most likely read in your high school classes, I gained nothing from watching it, but also lost nothing. I felt completely neutral toward it, and it was nothing more than a check on my Criterion Collection check list, but that in it's own right is a reaction. So in this new section, by the way is the only section thus far, I will review a film, as I see it, whether it is new, old, or even relevant. This of course is presumably exciting to no one in particular but I hope that the insights will help incite (see how I did that) decisions or cause a certain discourse on your own belief of certain films. I will attempt to not revisit films unless I find it important or something new is revealed through the act of rewatching, I also plan on tackling all mediums at one point but my diligence only goes so far.
