Stick to more thoughtful movie reviews, Exponent

Publication Date: 11/05/2009

When I read a movie review, I would like to read an articulate analysis of the movie’s strengths and weaknesses (with some quips thrown in for laughs) and not someone simply regurgitating the movie’s plot. Unfortunately, Christina Ripley’s article on “Zombieland” in the 10/28 edition of The Exponent falls into the latter category.

Besides retelling the plot, Ripley even gives away the Bill Murray cameo, which was one of the movie’s best moments. A thoughtful review would have encouraged the reader to check out the movie without resorting to spoilers.
