My First Movie Review: 'Let Me In'

My mom always says I should be a movie critic.  So I'm trying my hand at it.  I'm not sure being overly critical of tiny details is grounds for reviewing films, but I do really like to talk about them, so there you go.  The job I worked for three out of my four years in college was as a film projectionist in a movie theater, so I saw a lot of movies.  I actually sort of wish I was still working there, one because I would have a job, but more importantly because I got to see the movies before they came out, and by myself.  I often let myself be influenced by the things I've heard about a movie and the people I go to see it with.  So it would have been a good gig for writing movie reviews.  Luckily, since I have two friends in my hometown and neither of them had seen this movie, and I hadn't read any reviews, it's a good one for me to talk about.

Plus, Roger Ebert is my absolute hero.
