I'm sure you can other people on the internet that didn't like it. Hope you're very happy together. But, of the reviewers I trust, Mark Kermode loved it. Empire gave it 5 starts. It even has 87% approval on Rotten Tomatoes. S'ok, you're allowed not to like it. You can even feel superior, if you like. -- Champ We declare that the splendor of the world has been enriched by a new beauty: the beauty of speed.

It's almost impossible to find an evening showing that isn't in sodding 3D. I'm sure it's wonderful, but it really isn't my cup of tea. -- ogden | gsxr1000 | ktm duke 2

Can I join in? I mean, I've not read the reviews or anything - in fact I've never even heard of the film in question, let alone seen it, but I'm sure that Tosspot is right, and I'd like some of hs smug superior feeling please, as I feel I've been lacking in that department recently.
