The leading UK Movie reviewer, pretty much...(And his mate Mayo agrees).
Kermode is a cranky pretentious self described "male femenist". He's a hack and nobody should take what he says seriously.

Kermode comes from a cult movie / arthouse kind of background. He's not infrequently out of step with mainstream audiences.
I still want to see Mark Kermode and Martin Scorsese talk about The Exorcist.
It's Kermode's favourite film and he despises 2 with every fibre of his body while Scorsese, one of the most admired and acclaimed filmmakers of all time, likes the original but prefers the second.
I just want to see Kermode's reaction to that😂
That's interesting. I like Kermode and agree with a lot of his opinions.
shareSame. Kermode is the working critic whose sensibilities most closely match my own. I don't always agree with him by any means, but we're usually in the same ballpark -- and I will eventually see Joker 2 precisely because mainstream audiences have rejected it and he and Mayo liked it. Should at least be interesting.
