Lol, spot on. though I do remember Ebert giving the classic "The Big Chill" a very negative review mainly (i believe) because William Hurt's character had a drug dependency problem AND was treated sympathetically by the story and even "got the girl" (Meg Tilly) in the end. Ebert's point was basically "just say NO" to this film

I may not have always agreed with him, but remember people were more sensitive back then too. Gene Siskel gave Taxi Driver a less than favorable review due to the violence, which is kind of integral to the film.

@@Poetboyy Just look at how reaction to David Lynch's work has changed over the years. People used to complain his films were too dark and violent, but now they are appreciated cause emotionally they feel more true. Violent, ugly things feel violent and ugly in his movies. Taxi Driver does something similar. It's not a typical film where guns and violence and revenge are portrayed as ultimatley good, if messy and dangerous. There's no glamour or easing of the pain.

Like I always say: if "ALIENS" or "The Terminator" came out today, KZread would be filled with "brochachos" howling "Woke!" and "Girl boss!" lol
