Does Slate have any reviewers who know how to enhance a viewer's appreciation of a film? That's an honest question from a newcomer. It's deeply lazy to offer readers so little insight mixed in with so many uninformative gripes: "choose one complaint from column A and two complaints from column B". It's fine to object to something in particular about a movie. I get the feeling, though, that Ms. Stevens sits down in the theater with a grudge and a ready-made list of put-downs that she sticks on any film like so many post-its.
