Forgive me if I get in the middle of this, but there's a couple things I would like to point out in regard to your comment. It's not really about defending Ezzy, who is more than capable of doing it by himself. It's more of something that relates to the idea of steemit and blogging itself.
In the first place, honesty is not necessarily frowned upon around here. Some people are afraid it will get them flagged, but as you see, that's not even the case. I noticed that a lot of people here behave in a very formal manner, or think that civilized discussion means always saying "yes" to every opinion, but I actually found out (in a little more than a couple weeks, so yeah, I'm a noob) that people that disagree with authors, even famous ones, and still behave somewhat decently (no need to be aggressive, right?) can actually interact in a healthy discussion and be happy about it. Unfortunately, most of the other platforms work in a way that has made us forget what the word "discussing" means.
Secondly, and most importantly, you might have to rethink your concept of "blogging", dude. You don't have to be a movie critic to blog about movies. You don't have to analyze in-depth cinematography and photography and scripts if you don't want to. You can just write down a couple of thoughts, that's what blogging is in the first place. If people like your thoughts, you have success. Have you ever talked to a buddy of yours about a movie you saw? Did you keep them standing there half an hour while you dissected the movie piece by piece, or did you just give them your brief opinion? That's what Ezzy does, if you don't like that, there's plenty of online magazines with professional critics that you can explore and read.
Third, and this pertains to movies (and not only movies) themselves:
> I love movies and I want everyone to experience movies, at least good movies, on a level that's at least a bit deeper than just surface level.
I get it, more than you can imagine. I'm one of those guys who have to put thought behind every experience, reading, gaming, watching series and movies. I like to understand the technical aspects, I like to understand the philosophy, I like to understand the message and how it's conveyed to me. I get it. But the truth is, that every product can be enjoyable on two different levels, one immediate, and one deep, and not everybody like to see everything on the deep level. Some people outright refuse anything that requires critical thinking, and as much as I don't get it, we have to respect that choice. We could spend an evening talking about how great Mulholland Drive was, but if I dare to show it to my girlfriend, she *will* kill me before dying of boredom. So as much as we need good reviewers who point out details and "educate", sometimes we need someone to just say "dude, you'll enjoy this one, it's cool", and that's it. It doesn't mean that the're not capable of understanding the finesse behind a movie, it just means they chose a friendly, direct way of expressing their thought. Then, those of us who have the need to analyze will analyze.
