Audience v/s Critics

Hello Friends,
    As an active audience,I have watched lot of movies of many languages. But when a movie is released, we wait for a critic review, to decide whether we should watch a film or not.
   It has proved many times, that a movie liked by one, is not necessarily liked by other.Because it depends how a person looks at it.For eg.,Tamasha was beautifully crafted film, telling take some time out of your busy work schedule and Live life,dont be a machine.But,thats my point of view.Other person will think,that movie, as waste of time.
Now is the time we should start watching more films.Experience something new.If you watch 10 films, you might like only 5,but if you dont watch it at all, you will miss those 5 beautiful films.
Critics should be given importance upto a certain level.Do not depend upon critic review whether to watch a movie or not,because you are different.You might like the movie,even if critic rating is less.
Be a critic yourself.They divide the movie into good part,bad part.You should go and experience it. Dont tear it apart.Watch movie as your passion, not as a job.It will help you understand the movie better and enjoy it. A lot of hard work goes into movie making. Atleast respect that hard work before you decide it as a bad film. Dont just try to find negative things in a movie.It will help you to be a better judge,a better person in your life.
Critic's job is to present a detailed view about the movie and express his own "personal" views about it, as they are privileged to see the movie before everyone else.He/She should not manipulate you to go and watch the movie or stop you from watching that movie.Its your right to watch each and every film release in this country.So be the decision maker yourself. Sometimes taking a risk proves fruitful. We are in large number, so we decide whether the movie is Hit or Flop, not the critic.
So my personal advice to you all is, watch movies and give our industry a chance to make more good movies,be open to accept something new, experimental.
