I’ve just recently discovered the joy of reading Roger Ebert‘s movie reviews. He really has a gift for written word.

For instance his scathing review of the new G.I. Joe movie contains these delights:

“G. I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra” is a 118-minute animated film with sequences involving the faces and other body parts of human beings. It is sure to be enjoyed by those whose movie appreciation is defined by the ability to discern that moving pictures and sound are being employed to depict violence.

and

What is Cobra? What nationality are its leaders, other than Scottish? What will it gain by destroying world capitols? Reader, I do not know. Even the U.S. President (Jonathan Pryce) asks incredulously, “Don’t they have any demands?” His role is otherwise limited to being briefed about the Joes.

It is truly a pleasure to read Ebert rant and rave about films.
