On Review

Anton Ego is a character from Ratatouille (2007) known in reviewer's circles as "The Grim Eater," Anton Ego is an unscrupulously hard-to-please reviewer.Towards the climax he reviews Chef Gusteau's restaturant. 
I found some quotes really striking about REVIEWS. 
Anton Ego's words as it is...
In many ways, the work of a critic is easy. We risk very little yet enjoy a position over those who offer up their work and their selves to our judgment. We thrive on negative criticism, which is fun to write and to read. But the bitter truth we critics must face, is that in the grand scheme of things, the average piece of junk is probably more meaningful than our criticism designating it so.
