Armond White
District 9 represents the sloppiest and dopiest pop cinema -- the kind that comes from a second-rate film culture. [More]

No surprise here I guess. It's almost uncanny how he does this.

HaHa! Of course. I only wish that I could gamble in Vegas with the same success I have at predicting when Armond is going to give a bad review. I would be a very rich man.

He's obviously addicted to being the d-bag critic who is the first to hate a movie. I think it's like a drug to him. We need to stage an intervention quick.

Seriously though, I don't get him. The way he describes movies seems utterly childish. Reading part of his District 9 review, it seems like he is just making things up. RT needs to revoke his privileges to post reviews.

I guess that officially means that this movie is going to be fantastic! Thanks Armond!

This is guy has a horrid taste in movies. I don't mind someone giving a rotten rating, but this loser also gave The Dark Knight a rotten review. This guy fails.

You know, I don't like bashing a critic over a review of a film I haven't seen, or for that matter, bashing a critic over a review that I disagree with. But Mr. White is so predictable that it is impossible to take anything he says seriously. What's amazing to me me is that he obviously spends a good amount of time creating something that is as bad as it is. The NY Press should really think about dumping this guy. Then again, I might feel cheated if I didn't get to see what woefully pathetic attention getting diatribe he writes next.

He is entitled to his opinion, which I must say is diametrically opposed to mine about 99% of the time. I'm just glad I don't see movies through his eyes or perspectives, as I'd never go to the movies again.

I wholeheartedly agree with Nick A, this guy is definitely racist when it comes to his reviews. He gave positive reviews to not only Dance Flick, but NEXT DAY AIR. Are you freaking kidding me? I'm sure if a black person directed or starred in this film it would get a positive review. This guy is a joke, please remove him from being a RT critic PLEASE!!!!

This guy is a joke. A paid professional troll who hands out rotten reviews to obviously amazing films. When you go against all other professional critics opinions just for your own selfish publicity, its time to go. This idiot needs to be fired because he has to hold the record for the most inaccurate, backward movie reviews.

Hey New York Press, when people start looking at your movie reviews and doing the opposite of what they tell you to do, maybe you ought to think about a change... hmm.

The funny thing is the person who was impersonating Armond White sounded almost identical to the comments just above...makes me wonder....Maybe the person who trying to be Armond White is really Armond White haha

I was JUST coming on to this website to find his email address, so that I could beg him to consider, just this once, judging an intensely popular film on its merits rather than knee-jerking in his typical, comically-predictable way. I thought Wednesday would be early enough, but he's already had time to write his Bizarro-Review. I haven't seen the film yet, so I can't judge the film's merits yet, but it is overwhelmingly clear that White just likes to draw attention to himself by declaring himself the sole voice of dissent. He's no longer a critic of films, but of public opinion, and therefore I feel his views shouldn't be expressed on a movie review website.

It looks like the admins at RT are on to him because at the time that I'm writing this the movie still has a 100% rating even with his review. But if the admins are not going to include the review in the film's score I don't understand why they even bother putting it up.
