watcher are you?
Sit back and chill and enjoy the movie?
Criticise every moment?
Provide a running commentary ?

Maybe one film a year and I’ll see maybe half of that.

That's still far more preferable than someone who won't shut up with their running commentary.

Re: What sort of film
Watching anything with the youngest makes me want to reach for the duct tape.

Re: What sort of film
I get absorbed, and enjoy it, unless the plot gets too drifty, then I get bored and walk away.

Re: What sort of film
I disapprove of fiction.
And biopics.
Documentaries are sometimes tolerable.

Re: What sort of film
An occasional Bio-Pic is OK. But Fiction, for me, makes the best movies.
I really enjoy the old 30's and 40's era Swashbucklers.
