Jeffrey Wells: Impudent upstart

Jeffrey Wells, the aging Hipster King who hosts Hollywood Elsewhere,

dares to take issue with my rave review of Knocked Up. (I've been

told, by the way, that said review already has been blurbed on lobby

displays in megaplexes throughout this great land of ours. Uh-oh.

Looks like I'm rejoining the ranks of quote whores.) You can humor

Wells by reading his comments here.

'Jeffrey Wells, the aging Hipster King'

Ouch! I used to read Wells but gave up on him earlier this year

having become gradually disenchanted with his Oscar coverage,

his hyperbolic praise for soulless rubbish like The Departed

not to mention his absurd shilling for good not great movies

like Zodiac. It doesn't help that most of his commentators are

the usual collection of arrogant film school kids each of them

trying to outdo the other with their shallow but aggressively

proclaimed 'opinions.'
