His three-star-itis notwithstanding, I get the impression that he isn't even paying attention at a lot of the movies he watches these days. ("Unspecified time and place"? Every other review I've seen has set the movie firmly in 1897, as established by a tombstone shot during a funeral at the beginning of the film.)
Every review of his that I've read recently has contained two or three of these factual errors.
I mean, I love the guy--for the entirety of the 90s, he was THE reviewer, the only one who really gave opinions that mattered to me because they were so spot on most times--but maybe he's just bored with film.
