    Siskel & Ebert (1995)

    Season 9, Episode 45

    This episode takes a look at some of the best villains that the big screen has ever delivered. The film critics talk about the villain over the years, how they've changed and how they've somewhat stayed the same. They also talk about how being politically correct might cause an issue for villains going forward but we also get a discussion on how most movie villains suit whatever attitudes are going on in the world at that time. We even get Siskel and Ebert giving us their pick of the greatest villain of all time. This is certainly a very fun episode with a lot of great movie recommendations in it. I thought both critics did a very good job with their selections and there's no question that the discussions are great and full of wonderful entertainment.
