He likes movies but lacks the talent to make them. I therefore find his opinion invalid.

A: I fully believe you can criticize anything without having the talent to make it. Saying that is like saying you have to be able to make a video game before you know if you like one or not and are allowed to voice your opinion on it.
B: Ebert did make a movie and it was... interesting. Go rent Beyond the Valley of the Dolls.
