Inappropriate movie review

TO THE DAILY:

Michael Zilberman's review of Jackie Chan's movie "Rumble in the bronx" ("Asian star `Rumbles in America,'" 2/27/96) contained a bizarre swipe at the great local magazine "Cashiers du Cinemart" (which he mistakenly refers to as "Cahiers du Cinemart"). The magazine is a thoroughly engaging collection of intelligent movie reviews and news and not the "typical hipper-than-thou `zine'" that Zilberman seems to think it is.

The two articles of "laborious Tarantino bashing" are actually enlightening reports on "Cashiers'" editor Mike White's hilarious short film "Who Do You Think You're Fooling?" I think it's apparent that Zilberman should shy away from literary criticism. In fact, after reading his clumsy review of "Rumble in the Bronx," he should probably stay away from film reviews as well. Leave it up to the swell staff of "Cashiers du Cinemart."
