Come on!!! It's not THAT bad

I saw the movie and it's not as bad as they say, even the dialogues weren't THAT ridiculous (except for one or the other), the worst things in the movie for me were:

1) The girls dancing on the table to the sound of Toxic (seriously, no employee came up to tell the girls to get off the table???)
2) Cassandra driving a stolen taxi very calmly around the city throughout the whole movie
3) A VERY weak villain: his motivation was not to dominate the world, but to kill three little girls that he saw in a premonition... he was also so weak that although he had powers, he was never able to against 3 women who did not even have a single power???
4) Even though Ezekiel also had premonitions, why could he NEVER anticipate Cassandra's movements?

Despite all that, the movie wasn't that bad. I'll give it 5/10

I agree, it wasn't a total trainwreck - 5 out of 10.

The bit that got me was she travels to darkest Peru, meets up with the Spider-Men and none of them offer to help her take on Ezekiel. Uhm, thanks.

I guess you could argue they saw his future but still, a little help, maybe a protein bar and a Gatorade.

1. I'd the same problem, but I never set foot in USA... I just assume americans don't think that is a big deal.

2. I'd the same problem, the movie should make Cassandra switch plate with other car. It's unbelievable she can drives a car without a plate around NYC.

3. I thought that is good for the movie, I'm tire of every villain in comic movies has the same motivation: destroy or dominate the world.

4. I just assume he is weak on the ability of premonition, unlike Cassandra has no other super powers, he has other powers. It's like play video game: she put all her points on one ability.

I watched it today and thought it was alright, a 6/10 from me.

yes, not great, but not as bad as they were saying.

Going to check it out. My guess is it's not that bad either and it's got Dakota Johnson, she's always a plus.

"It's not that bad" is not much of a recommendation. I prefer watching things that are actually good, myself.

It's pretty bad.
