Makes The Hangover (2009) look like Citizen Kane


I just saw it and posted feedback on this board. Yeah, it was terribleā€¦.

You're being hyperbolic. Of course it wasn't a masterpiece but it wasn't s**t. I've seen loads of worse movies. You knew what you were getting into just by the title. Manage your expectations better, dimwit.

Why are you so emotionally bothered by hyperbole to the point where you need to insult me personally? Obviously I wasn't expecting Oscar-worthy performances or a stellar screenplay but AT LEAST a movie that makes me laugh for then a handful of times.

Sorry, that "dimwit" part was really me flying off the handle being "emotionally bothered."

It really depends on whether you saw the trailer. You "only" laughed a handful of times? I'd say that's what they were aiming for. It's not a comedy club, bro. It's a movie with a plot and a moral. Even American Pie spinoffs have that. Yes, there are funnier movies, but again, what did you expect?

It would be s**t if it didn't make you laugh at all, or maybe just once. Have you seen Movie 43? Piranha 3DD? Biodome? The Garbage Pail Kids Movie? Mr. Magoo? Freddy Got Fingered? Son of the Mask? Those movies are s**t. Dirty Grandpa is better than that. It's mediocre unless you have a huge aversion to sex/gay jokes, which brings me back to what did you expect?

Honestly I think most of the negativity might be from the gay/dick jokes as they are the most jarring. I just moved on from those, but I can understand if they got under the skin of some.

It sounds like your argument is that if there are worse films, a film can't be considered terrible.

reply

It is s**t. If you are entertained by this film in any way other than to witness a cinematic car crash, you must be half retarded.

Yeah, I don't like seeing Aubrey Plaza strip either. /sarcasm.

You must be asexual. What a sad life you must lead.

Awful! And I had been looking forward to it. I'm a big DeNiro fan, but hated this.
