I've always found SZ to be far better than other critics. More honest, more observant, more analytical, and more reliable, but resulting in many negative or even biting reviews. I am suspicious that this has changed though, perhaps an attempt to placate the readers.
And yes, I'm perfectly happy to admit that I have long avoided movies that SZ has panned. Most of what Hollywood puts out is not worth seeing, and Stephanie has been the best filter I have ever found.
Most other movie critics (on the payroll of some media conglomerate, if you trace the money back far enough), cannot be trusted. So the 92% rating on Rotten Tomatoes means nothing, at least not to me.
