Judith W. gave this critic a 0:
Mike Clark is myopic! I just read his review of "Mrs. Henderson Presents" posted on Fandango’s web site. His scathing review of this, one of the best movies I have seen this year, is so far off base it is slanderous. I nearly chose not to see this movie, based on his review. That, truly, would have been my loss. Mr. Clark found fault with Judi Dench, the director, the casting and the script (among other things). The “Jessica Rabbit” comment was comparing apples to oranges. His reference to "Calendar Girls" made no sense whatsoever as there was not relation between the two productions. I, for one, think he owes the Weinstein Company a public apology. I cannot help but wonder if Mr. Clark has some "ax to grind" with Weinstein. Note to Mike: I never found it necessary to check my watch during this movie and even though I was born in 1938, My hair is not blue and I certainly did not “tee-hee” on my way out of the theatre.

Josh gave this critic a 0:
Mike Clark is hands-down the worst critic in the world. How can he possibly say anything good about the movie Four Brothers? Either he didn't watch it or was paid/told not to be too critical of the movie. Obviously, the other people who commented on this board about what a great movie critic Mr. Clark is are his mother and his father. Nobody in their right mind would believe a word this critic says. Get a life Mr. Clark.

Ricky C. gave this critic a 10:
Mr. Clark if my favorite movie critic. I have agreed with his choice of Best Picture of the Year for the thrid year in a row.

David W. gave this critic a 9:
In my opinion Mike Clark is the best critic out there. He is usually right on the money with his critiques and I almost always defer to his recommendations when renting videos.
