EST (2324 GMT) 48 CHICAGO (CNN) -- Gene Siskel, a film critic known for his thumbs-up and thumbs-down reviews with fellow critic Roger Ebert on their popular TV show, died Saturday. Siskel had surgery in May to remove a growth from his brain but returned to the syndicated television show "Siskel & Ebert" soon afterward. He announced earlier this month he was taking time off from that show to recuperate from the surgery. Siskel wrote movie reviews for the Chicago Tribune and TV Guide and also did reviews for "CBS This Morning" and WBBM-TV in Chicago. He had said when he announced his leave February 3 that he expected to return to the television show and writing his reviews this fall. Their trademark "thumbs-up" and "thumbs-down" reviews became a benchmark for the movie industry. Siskel was one of the first broadcasters initiated into the National Association of Television Programming Executives and won several print and broadcast awards. Siskel is survived by his wife, Marlene, and two children.
