OT: Horrible Movie

what are your expectations when you see these movies.

Do you go for plot and acting and storyline ?

Or do you go to watch background, camera shooting, cgi and action sequences.

I always feel that these movies should be rated on the second.

Occasionally you get the bonus of the plot or a good story line. Even some times some acting. Take I Robot. It actually had an ok plot and an ok storyline.

Last night i watch underworld. it was ok. good background. great soundtrack. 5.1 was fantastic. everything else was predictable. Would I recommed it. If you have a good surround system then yea, take it for a ride. If you like things that go bump in the night and action movies. Then my rating of it changes from an ok movie to a good movie.

Don't get me started on that film *laughs* It was quite well done visually and the soundtrack was great. Now, if they had a half decent plot and kate beckingsale could act it might have been something better.

I'm sorry to hear the movie AvP stunk like stinky socks after walking 5 miles in black shoes.

Personally I try to divide movies up into two Groups.
1) Uber good movies with plot and story that you walk out of the theater thinking "awesome movie"
2) Pure brain candy. Little or no plot what so ever, but if you check the logical part of your brain at the entrance, you can still enjoy it.

That being said, perhaps AvP should be the ol' cheap theater experience, or maybe a renter eh?
