In the past, to be a film critic you had to work for prestigious (*cough* pretentious *cough*) magazines or media companies. Then, YouTube paved the way for huge creators such as Watch Mojo, CinemaSins and countless Movie essay pages.

Since TikTok took over the world, and its short-length videos became accessible for anyone to watch: one of the jobs that we’ve seen become more down-to-earth is movie reviewing. Here are ten Movietok reviewers that have contributed to changing how it’s done:

 

J Stoobs

J Stoobs has a following of nearly 500,000 followers on TikTok. She shares really in depth movie reviews where she often discusses social injustices. She’s not afraid to go against the flow: meaning she sometimes likes something that most people didn’t and viceversa – Instead of the “movie bro” approach, J Stoobs (aka Megan) will share contemplated and thorough arguments to explain why that is. If you follow her you know she loves Jennifer’s Body (a modern classic) and didn’t love the new Wednesday series. But she will always share her thoughts with much consideration and respect.

With 225,000 followers, this TikToker’s content is slightly focused on horror movies. Horror movie opinions are so subjective, but even if the film she’s talking about has bad critics reviews, she tells her followers if she thinks they’re worth watching or not based on entertainment value, campness, scare level, etc.

But just like George, Seth is very heartfelt and often recommends movies that will increase your serotonin. with nearly 145,000 followers, Seth loves Studio Ghibli movies and simply wants to share his love for cinema.
