This might be interesting. All action and SFX, but sometimes that's for the best.

Its not doing so well with the critics...But you know its only their opinion.

Holy shit.. 12% on RT. I knew it wouldn't do well, but I wasn't expecting it to get that low. 😬

Yeah that's not good. However, 69% of users liked it which is something. Professional critics sometimes remind me of internet goons who want to seem cooler by hating something vehemently instead of enjoying it holistically. The fact that Black Guy in a Fat Suit Sequel Eight Billion Madea's Christmas ranked marginally higher at 20% tells me that the critics aren't the best barometer of enjoyability for films. Hobbit 2, which is the most disappointing Tolkien movie since Ralph's animated series, ranked much higher, and atrocity to mankind Lone Ranger ranked 31% (That was a horrible film which went on forever).

Grain of salt folks. In any case I plan to see it today so if it is indeed crap I'll let you know.

I will see this at 3:40 and give you my professional opinion my ardent followers.

... why?

The movie is obviously going to be a turd, and we all know that that the only positive comment anyone is going to be able to make about it is "well it's a brainless, completely shit popcorn flick, but if you ignore literally every single thing sans the fight scenes its decent entertainment".

😂 12%

Seems my very low prediction wasn't quite low enough.

Here comes another prediction from Rob who worshipped the Man of Steel film which was completely awful and devoid of a soul.

Calm down, it is Christmas after all 🙂

I won't let you attack Keanu's film since you have never seen it. Leave Neo alone.

Keanu doesn't deserve the hate.

Also, I thought MoS was the best Supes film I've ever seen, even if it had a shitty introduction that left a lot unanswered until half an hour or more into the film.

But I might be biased since Faora made the movie for me and Henry Cavill always comes off as a nice guy.

I liked The Last Samurai but Reeves is no Cruise.

Agreed

Agreed. Yeah, that is a pretty significant difference. It could still be enjoyable. The Lone Ranger deserved a much lower rating.

Very solid film. It wasn't the action dominated film many thought it would be. Really about duty and honor. Enjoyable story and I would definitely recommend it.

I don't want Robbie to ever see it. He is not worthy.

Absolutely terrible movie and I actually got bored in the middle. Keanu Reeves didn't fit in, felt stale and unoriginal, terrible character development.

Fighting and effects were awesome though.

I trust ares more so yeah, sounds good.

I didn't get a chance to see this since dinner took longer than expected. Hopefully tomorrow. Duty and honor are good themes.
