You are like the dog that refuses to let go. Fortunately, there are ways of dealing with the dog, unfortunately laws against dealing the same with people. Not having seen the film, I cannot comment on the merits of the film. But we can look at some facts, and draw conclusions:

Facts:

(1) 93% of professional film critics have recommended the film, including Andrew Sarris, one of Donald's big critics (dislaimer: not an endorsement of Donald), as did the other New York Times' critic.

(2) In the prior thread on this film, Clark, Draz, Rico, Tunenut, and Harmonia raved of the film.

Saying you did not "like" a film is one thing, saying it is "bad" because you did not like it is arrogant, particularly in light of the glowing endorsements the film has received from various quarters. Which raises the question: Did all these people get it wrong, and Tin get it right? Or did Tin get it wrong, and all these people right? I suspect that your inflated ego suggests to you the latter.

And before you blather on about "it is my opinion", "I am entitled to my opinion", etc., note that "think" and "opinions" appear nowhere in your post. The emperor is naked.

I apologize ahead of time to those who would like to castrate me for providing Tin an incentive to add to his condenscending post.
