Description

We are the Silver Screen Cynics! We love film and television and discussing them both. Over the years we have becomes somewhat cynical in our approach to critiquing film. Sometimes poo-pooing on a film or director can be quite fun! This also means that when we find something that we enjoy, we get very excited to discuss it! That can be rare though.
