It's a matter of opinion, nothing more, nothing less.

Everyone has their own opinions. For example, I think Eyes Wide Shut was a great movie, and Tomb Raider was every bit as horrid as Anaconda. See, the only critic I listen to is Roger Ebert, and that's because he's the only one I've found that actually knows what he's talking about. That doesn't mean I listen to his opinion all the time, I felt exactly the opposite of his reviews for The Mummy Returns and Tomb Raider. You just have to recognize what they're trying to say, and not base your opinion off of that.

: AI is getting GOOD reviews as well.

: Where at? Every critic around here, and nationally that I have seen has pretty much bashed the movie.

: I agree with you all, critics pretty much suck. Seems as if every movie I really like they absolutly hate. Maybe they need to come on out of thier "artsy fartsy eggshell" and see what the American public wants and likes, just plain entertainment.

: For that matter, if I remember right didnt these critics like "Eyes Wide Shut." Dont know about you all, but that has to be one of the absolute worst movies I have ever seen.

: I'm not bashing all movie critics, but do think most of them are really out of touch with the public, well maybe not the public, but with me for sure.
