Movies you hated that everyone else loves over 3 years ago
The Godfather is overrated, and quite boring. I just can’t find compassion for murderers, no matter how much humanity a director tries to instill.
Juno was really contrived as was Little Miss Sunshine. If these are great films, we have nothing to look forward to at the theaters.
I thought the The Dark Knight was incomprehensible and devolved into the usual mayhem that action films tend to do these days.

What Is "Movie Hell" For You? over 3 years ago
Most action films just devolve into rapid-fire machine guns and I just lose focus. Better than Ambien for sleep disorders.
