The "Don't Waste Your Time and/or Money To See This Film" Thread

The November Man - believe the critic's rating on Rotten Tomatoes and not the User Rating.

This movie was terrible. A complete waste of time. The dialogue was amateurish and just so bad that I actually looked at the actors with pity because they're too dumb to see those lines and do something about them. LOL.

It's not even a Redbox movie. It's a don't bother at all movie.

I didn't hate it. But I just thought it wasn't a well-written movie and I don't think you should waste your time, but especially not your money. It wasn't even entertaining, IMO. Some movies aren't written very well, but are still kind of entertaining, or worth it to see on the big screen because of the action, etc. But this movie is NOT one of those movies, IMO.

Awwwww.....I didn't think it was worth a "don't waste your time". The action was great. Though the forced love story was bad. I thought it was worth seeing in the theater for the visuals.

I've been accused of being too easy to please with movies, but I have different rating scales for movies.

Non-Oscar bait movies (comedies and summer popcorn movies) get good scores if I was entertained by them.

Oscar bait movies are graded on a MUCH harder scale.

I saw JS and it is a good flick. I don't get how a woman can run with heels?

It had a couple of so-so moments with the raptors & the t-rex, but I was left wishing I could get those two hours back. I kept thinking 'why am I watching this crap?', and I couldn't stop fidgeting or checking the time on my phone (maybe I should've played on my phone to help pass the time). I think they did a terrible job with the movie (the actors were awful too), and yes, idiot running around in heels was ridiculous. I didn't really have high expectations, but it was still a disappointment.

I tried to watch this movie but ended up leaving the only thing that kept me in was the new dinosaur. To hear that it is simply a trex with longer arms and to hide it for so long was the last draw. To be fair, I expected to see something like the first one since I had that on vhs and watched at least 10 times so I was going to be disappointed no matter what. I'm sorry but this chris pratt(or w/e) needs to stick to funny movies. I let him slide on guardians but that wasn't that great of a movie so I knew that coming in. Plenty of funny one liners though in guardians.

Gurdians was built on the fact that it was a b movie in comparison to the other avengers from what I remember. It wasn't given any where near the hype of any of the avengers. It was that comedy with action movie you go to see.

Yep, you're remembering correctly.

And what surprised everyone was how good it turned out to be.

IMHO, it's a close second to The Avengers as being the best superhero movie.

You had to lower your expectorations unlike avengers. This sort of let you give it better props than it would have gotten.

You know I got mad love for you. But, lets not get carried away. We all know The Dark Knight is hands down thee best superhero movie of all time. With, Superman 2 tying it for the top spot if one accounts for the era in which it was made and the nostalgia factor.

I think spiderman 2 out ranks avengers dubious on the dark knight.

and I said spiderman 2 that came out over ten years ago and not that amazing crap that needed an end.
 
Fuck no!

It has been, sadly, decades since I've seen the Christopher Reeve Superman movies, so I can't attest to how great they are...

The Dark Knight is an excellent movie, and frankly I forgot about it. LOL.

For some reason, Christopher Nolan's Batman movies don't feel like superhero movies to me. They're just too dramatic. When I think of those movies, I don't even think about the fact that Batman is a superhero.

I totally forgot about Spiderman!! Spiderman 2 (the ONLY Spiderman movies I consider when thinking about Spiderman) was the best one of the trilogy.

The Andrew Garfield ones I don't like at all. I only saw the first one, but it wasn't a good movie and the reviews were less than stellar for the second one, so I passed on seeing it.

I loved Tobey Maguire as Spiderman.

In fact, I think Spiderman is my favorite of all the superheroes. I don't know why since I HATE spiders. Haha.
