Bob Grimm

"I think it was in Ebert's "North" review where he said "I hated this movie. Hated hated hated hated hated this movie." That was a beautiful thing. You're gonna need a bigger boat-Roy Scheider in Jaws Where is Pancakes House? Peter Stormare in Fargo That's me...I'm me! Michael Rappaport in True Romance Look to me...I'll show you the life of the mind! John Goodman in Barton Fink"

Agrees with the Tomatometer 80% of the time.

Biography:
Grew up in New York, moved to Reno in 1992, and can't believe I still live here. Been writing reviews since 1989.
