    What?

    You're going to have to do better than that.

    The Wolverine (NOT 'X-Men Origins: Wolverine') is one of the better Marvel movies. It ranks up there with First Class and DoFP in quality and execution.

    AND it follows one of the major Logan comic runs in the 80's and does a damn fine job of it.

    So, rather than saying 'effing horrible' - which is worthless as a review by the way - how about you actually say why you thought that?

    And you too Eric:

    I consider one-line reviews which trash movies and give no plausible reason for doing so, especially when the movie in question was generally regarded very favorably, as nothing but trolling.

    Why? Do you have anything specific about it which caused you to consider it to be 'garbage'?

    Re-watched Open Water. 8 out of 10. That will keep me from swimming in the ocean for a while.

    Very similar movie to Frozen (not the recent animated film... the one with three people on a ski lift).

    World's Greatest Dad 7.5/10

    Been on a Robin Williams spree lately and this is one of his gems imo, really interesting story and concept but some parts could be improved. If anybody is looking for something on netflix i would recommend you give it a shot.

    I'll give it a go, because I didn't like it either.

    But I start with a bias, in that I don't USUALLY like comic book movies, especially now that there's a new one out constantly. They're not compelling to me...UNLESS they somehow find their way out of the mold.

    Guardians of the Galaxy is an example of one I really, really enjoyed....but I feel like I've seen Wolverine/XMen/Fantastic4/blah blah blah a million times already. To the point where the only reason I see them is because I have a 9 year old son.

    The other exception is characters I ALREADY care about. I already care about Bruce Wayne and Peter Parker, because I have since I was about 5 years old. I find their stories compelling...but that certainly doesn't mean I necessarily enjoy every Batman and/or SpiderMan movie.

    Pitch Perfect

    I didn't think I would enjoy it as much as I did. The movie travels a familiar path but it has a lot of fun doing it.

    7/10

    Slumdog Millionaire 8/10 (felt like 9.5 out of 10 while watching it though cuz of the whole rooting for the underdog thing)

    I totally get not caring for super-hero movies. Everyone has their own taste.

    But that's a far cry from flatly stating it was 'horrrrrible' or a 'pile of crap', as some people have done.

    The Grand Budapest Hotel - 9/10 - I just truly enjoyed this from the story to the cinematography. As had been said before about Wes Anderson, almost every frame could be a very good picture by itself.
