Calling yourself \"one of the few that didn\'t hate this movie\" after titling your review \"Well it wasn\'t terrible...\" strikes me as a bit odd, since the film has a large and utterly rabid fan base who consider it the greatest thing since sliced bread. Of course, that\'s not really a surprise these days, where people judge something not by what it is, but by what they\'d decided it will be before they even watch it.
Always expect the worst and you can only be pleasantly surprised.Leave a Comment:
Well, it wasn't terrible...
All right, look, I don't have a very critical mind when comes to movies compared to apparently everyone else on the planet. So I'm probably one of the few that didn't hate this movie. I thought it was okay at best. And worst. Will Smith was probably the best thing about it, except in the first scenes with the character's daughter. And the forced Title Drop. I dunno how I feel about this movie's Joker, though. Well, performance-wise, at least. I hate the design, it just looks bad to me.
Story-wise... eh? I mean, it's a typical action movie with a typical action movie plot, now with DC villains. I mean, if that's what you don't like about it, okay, but I can't bring myself to feel any strong emotions about it one way or the other.
If I had to rate the movie I'd give it a 5/10. Well, maybe a 4.5/10, taking off 0.5 points for the at times really overbearing visuals. Like, they could've taken it down a bit. It kinda felt like they knew they didn't have a great story so they tried to compensate for it with heavy stylization. It didn't work.
