10 YouTube Film Critics You Need To Be Watching

Mark Kermode isn't by definition strictly a YouTube critic, considering that he's by far the most well-known active UK film critic working today, but his video reviews opposite presenter Simon Mayo (originally recorded for Radio 5) are ludicrously entertaining all the same.

Kermode has a terrific way with words and eschews typical critical conventions in a number of ways: he likes the Twilight franchise and his favourite movie isn't a Fellini film you've never heard of, but rather The Exorcist (which he seems patently obsessed with).

He brings with him decades of film reviewing experience, and though it's always great to see him piling love on a movie, there's nothing quite like his imaginative tear-downs of terrible films. If you're outside the UK and don't know who he is, change that right now.
