Speaking on the launch Raj K Gouni, CEO of Raising Media, said “Cinema is one of the strongest media of entertainment today. Every movie has its own flavor catering to a particular segment, and we often see a single person judging the movie with one frame of mind and his own set of tastes and views. Why should we rely on a single critic? This may avert us from watching the movie as we are governed mostly by his taste. I strongly feel that this trend, where a single person judges the quality of a movie should change. This is where 16reels.com becomes handy. We want to make the single-man review concept obsolete by giving every user a chance to write his own review on a movie and share it with a community of like-minded people in a more transparent way devoid of any prejudice or bias.”
