    Again I refer you to Mike D'Angelo's short reviews of Toronto films on his website. His choices are interesting: he's committed to them and always so personal he sometimes writes his review as a direct letter to the director. This may seem self-indulgent meta-journalism, but it gives immediacy to his day-to-day reports. Let's hope he fills in his last five days.

    Note: I first became aware of D'Angelo, a prolific and eloquent film critic whose whole career has been online, with his open letter to Lars von Trier in an AV Club bulletin from Cannes 2009. D'Angelo's distinctive and valid tweet-reviewing style was heralded by Kevin B. Lee in Fandor in a 2011 piece called "Essential Tweets: 34 Film Reviews From The Man Who TIFFed Too Much. . .Mike D’Angelo’s Twitter coverage of Toronto employs a new kind of film review aesthetic."

    More mainstream choices are reviewed with revealing colloquial detail by two of the Onion's main movie critics, Noel Murray And Scott Tobias , on AV Club.
