Is film criticism becoming irrelevant in the age of social media influencers?

Terance Standring

Film criticism is when people watch a movie and give their opinions about it. Some people think that with social media influencers, who are popular people on the internet who have a big following, film criticism is not as important anymore.

But I think that film criticism is still very important. Social media influencers might talk about a movie and tell you whether they liked it or not, but film critics go deeper. They look at the movie from different angles, like the acting, the writing, and the directing. They give reasons why they liked or didn't like the movie.

Film critics also have experience and knowledge about movies. They have studied movies and watched many different kinds of them. So, when they give their opinion, it is based on their expertise.

We also have to remember that everyone has different tastes and opinions. Social media influencers might like a movie that others don't, and vice versa. Film critics give you an idea about the quality of the movie, but it is up to you to decide if you like it or not.

In conclusion, film criticism is still important in the age of social media influencers. They offer a different kind of perspective, with experience and knowledge that influencers might not have. But, it's up to the individual to decide whose opinion they value more.
