Roger Ebert, Leonard Maltin, Pauline Kael, Richard Roeper, Gene Siskel, Mark Kermode.
Criticism may not be seen as a valid form, but there are more than a few very respected film critics. I wouldn't use the word legendary though.
- dwringer 4y agoTo me Roger Ebert fills the role of legendary but I'm not sure I could think of anyone else. Like all movie critics, Ebert would sometimes express opinions that would surprise or vex me, but - more or less uniquely to him - by the end of his reviews I would usually come to respect and somewhat understand his opinion despite the fact that I did not share it.
- mc32 4y agoI think Leonard takes himself way too seriously and comes across as preachy. Ebert is the right guy.
