I don't know much about that Patrick channel but the rest are pretty much generic youtube trash. Cinema sins or honest trailers are stale and pedantic. Critical drinker from what I know is just a gross channel. Same with filmento from the looks of it.

None of them analyse shit. Its such a low bar that critical drinker passes for analysis. Whatever that "analysis" is. I'm sorry that you couldn't watch a movie without analyzing whether the movie was pushing the woke agenda. Too bad.

Patrick Willems is a dude with an actual film degree producing actual video essays. He has a fantastic video discussing the nature of "content" and how he hates applying that term to anything that isn't the valueless slop peddled to keep eyes on ads, and another about how actors are turning themselves into brands and no longer doing any actual acting as a result, like how Ryan Reynolds and Dwayne Johnson always give the same performance.

I looked it up. Ok I might not have seen the ones you mention but I have at least looked at his bollywood video once.

Regarding ryan reynolds though, yeah that dude is the most shady mf. There was thing about him and the always sunny guy owning a football club, its a trainwreck.

I watched one Critical Drinker video that was recommended to me, I think it was on Mulan, all I needed to know that he's a twat because he was deliberately misrepresenting the original animated film in order to make a really tortured point about moral lessons in modern movies being bad.
