Two guys with sports broadcasting backgrounds have turned to movie reviewing as a fun sideline. Steven Leventhal, who does a weekend sports show on WKRS-AM (1220) in Waukegan, and David Schuster, a familiar sports beat reporter for CBS Radio-owned WSCR-AM (670) in Chicago, have launched a Web site, www.boothreviews.com, on which they have begun reviewing movies and DVD's and even books
The twist in their new movie review site is that they will come at reviewing flicks and books from a sports perspective -- an approach they believe will particularly appeal to male sports fans. Their rating system even reflects a sports theme -- with a "grand slam" equalling four stars, a "triple" equalling three stars and so on.
Lewis Lazare has written the Media Mix column for the Chicago Sun-Times for the past seven and a half years.
