Most people realize that reviews are a subjective opinion, and anyway, WOM is a more effective way to judge a film. If I like the trailer, I usually go ahead and watch the film regardless of the reviews it is getting.

Yes that’s how I am. I don’t care what others say lol. Infact most movies that get bad reviews interest me 😆😆

Majority don't respects reviewers anyways, so faltu ka rona chal raha hain iska.

Its around 1-2 years that reviewers ki respect utari hai.. IF-BWF pe ek time tha movie threads par pata nahi kis kis reviews chipkaye jaate the. "Who is best reviewer threads bnte the"

I watch any movie only if I find it’s Trailer is good or if it’s got very good WOM.

Vikas K should have named and shamed them in his post. Expose the people who do paid reviews in BW.

Salman, SRK, Akshay, Varun must not have too much money. Their movies get trashed by critics a lot. Kjo must be really poor because he gets trashed by critics the most.

Varun openly stated in his interview with Komal that he wouldn't pay a single paisa for a good review. He however admitted that he might ask them to put a good word in during promotions etc. But that's as far as it goes. I get the impression that he might have been approached in the past and he wanted to make his position clear to all paid critics.

Agree...this is how it works👎🏼👎🏼

Small movies might need good reviews, movies of Bigger stars might not because they have their own fanbase and PR machinery to promote their film. Nowadays even word of Mouth seems to be bought ?
