I agree with everything except what you typed in BOLD. Yes there's plenty of fair reviews, most of the positive reviews said it isn't his best, however there are critics that PURELY have an agenda, really on both sides. It was inevitable to happen too.

That's fair. I can think of a couple and even know a film critic who's told me that some of them do go in wanting to hate a movie or wanting to love it and will not be moved off of that position no matter what

Which is precisely what the IGN review said. It's going to be a polarizing movie, some people are going to love it, others are going to loathe it. So what if it's not universally praised? I man there are actually people threatening critics because they dislike a movie that these people haven't even seen yet. What type of shyt is that? Are they related to Nolan? Is Nolan paying them? No? Ok so have a coke and a smile man.
i got my nolan pom poms ready for next week :jawalrus:

I hate people that look to critics as a barometer.

I swear metacritic/rt is the worst thing to happen to film.

The funny thing is years down the road a lot of critics change their mind on films.

Its like people forget theyre just humans, susecptible to the same bias, hype etc that everyone else is.

Some of the best movies are the ones that get torn apart by critics or are polarizing.


Fight club is one of my favorite films of all time but when that movie dropped critics shyt on it.

See the movie. Judge yourself. I only trust my opinion.

expectations play a huge part in reviews too, for example, they're expecting a cinematic masterpiece when seeing a nolan film, anything less and they :camby:

but they expected John Wick to suck dikk, since it's actually a good movie it's in the upper 80%'s

That goes both ways though. Having high expectations and hyping a film then going to see it and it's not as good as you've been saying it would be, so people end up defending it endlessly. People who hype movies on forums are notorious for this behavior.


Posting "(insert director) does it again :blessed:" before a movie is even released. :sas2:

"we in for another masterpiece :lawd:" :sas2:

But then the movie doesn't get stellar reviews and isn't as well received as people expected, then it turns into "but but it's just polarizing some like it some hate it" :sas2:

Man i followed prometheus for like 2 years, before it even had an official name and before rewrites. I was so hype for the movie and it was a letdown, although i still think it's a very good(enjoyable) movie just not what i was expecting.

with it's flaws and all, I fukking love that movie. I really wish they had kept the original script though, it explained things a lot more clearly and was a direct prequel, Ridley fukked up big time there, but I love the ancient astronaut story. Although I have to say, if Fassbender had not been in it I would've liked it CONSIDERABLY less. His performance elevated that movie a lot.

Yea i love the movie, first bluray i purchased. Even just adding certain deleted scenes would have made the movie much better. The butchering of the movie's story is the number one reason i'll never watch anything that damon lindelof is attached to. Never again, guy is a hack.

Noomi rapace just does something for me:shaq:
