RD Francis

An example of what happens when anyone can have a website, blog, podcast or YouTube channel and call themselves a critic with few qualifications.

2.2 Total Score
RD Francis (BandSAboutMovies)

We are pretty sure this is a fake name to account for a husband and wife team who decided to write reviews and share them on YouTube, social media and even go so far as to make a podcast. Admittedly, after reading the poorly written reviews and content on the website, we couldn't bring ourselves to listen to the podcasts. Whether a review from Francis is good, bad, or something else, it is poorly written and from the perspective of an un-informed movie watcher. Francis is among the many who post to IMDB and Amazon and perceive themselves as professionals but are far from it.
