https://rogerebert.com is still up and running and their staff is still writing reviews for new films. It's one of my go-to sources for film reviews.

Once Ebert died I largely stopped visiting that site. Do you feel that they still hold opinions largely similar to what Ebert would have if he was still alive?

to me the trick is finding one or two reviewers that you understand (not necessarily agree with.) Then if the person says they dislike something and why, you can compare their history with your history of agreeing or disagreeing with them. When Ebert was alive, I had read (and saw) enough of his reviews to have that kind of reaction. For example, I knew Ebert hated David Lynch, and I understood (to an extent) why and I knew that I disagreed on the reasons, so I could filter his reviews. Other people writing on Eberts site don't give me that.

That's something you don't get with aggregators.

I don't know; I discovered it after he died and have been using it mainly for post-Ebert reviews. I'm actually not super familiar with his taste in films.

It's never been the same for me. I didn't always agree with his opinion, but he always articulated it beautifully, and I could respect it. Critics these days seem like they're just churning out more content.
