Post Dracula untold Another reason i dont trust critics anymore
This got so much bad reviews when it came out a few years ago that i skipped it, until last night. Since i got a free rent movie on vudu i decided to give this a go when i read by some that it was actually great, well it was, i thought it was fun and am sad it didnt become part of the dark universe, critics probably scared a lot of people away like me. This to me ranks in the same class as Speed racer and BVS as films that were trashed by critics but i ended up liking a lot.

Interesting, I stayed away from the film so far too.

It might be worth checking out after all, but it still seems to be just in the good not great category, so I'm not in a rush.

Yeah, I thought this was pretty good when I caught it on FX a few weeks ago.

If only more people could experience this epiphany and tear off their blindfolds to finally see the truth behind the hype machine.

Another example of critics being completely off with WOKJ: Alien: Covenant

Its a decent movie which is well thought and executed with some flaws and in general is a good take on the character.
