WTF? So bad I think they trolled us!


I cannot believe how terrible this movie is!
You're telling me an assembled group of professionals from the stages of; pitching, scripting, from pre through to post production could not realise how bad this would turn out.

The writing is atrocious, seriously it's like it was freestyled with zero drafting. A school child could do way better. The dialogue was awful, the plot was so bad and riddled with clichés it was comical and the acting was subpar, it almost felt like a spoof with some of the original cast!

For such a well known blockbuster to be handled this badly made me wonder if the producers and writers are trolling the audience to see how bad they can make it, they can't seriously be that inept. I laughed most of the way through but I'll be honest and admit that I didn't make it till the end of the film. The imdb rating is super generous imo.

I also see a part 3 in the making, wtf?

None of you know how to have any fun anymore. Fancy shmancy big words to make it sound smart too. I'd rather watch movies like this than listen to you film snobs whine all day about your first world problems.

It was awful. There it is, in plain English.
