AFF's Doublethink

How often do you see a review that begins like this?

It’s hard to know where — and with whom — to begin when assessing the depraved, worthless piece of filth that is “Orphan,” a high-gloss horror show about a well-meaning couple who bring home a 9-year-old girl to join their family, only to discover, way too late, that she’s a homicidal psychopath.

The quote is from Ann Hornaday’s review in the Washington Post. Interestingly, most of the comments on Hornaday’s review trashed Hornaday, rather than the film itself. I must confess I’m not interested in resolving this debate to spend $10 on a movie ticket.
