Not at all. That's just a statistic of tickets sold/money made.

66% is still a fresh rating. Every movie ever will have some people that don't like it.

Well, I need to see this. Can anyone comment on the quality of the Vudu stream? If it's poor I might just grab the Second Sight disc.

Fair enough. I just found it to be a great new direction.

(This thread has become a place to say the odd thing that may not fall perfectly with the unpopular.)

Well it was still in the midst of high infection rates and was put on Premier Access, so you can’t really judge it’s Box Office Numbers.

The numbers also don't say anything about what the people that saw it actually thought about it, so it's pointless looking at it either way when we are talking about opinions of the film itself.

Case in point: In the Heights. High critic scores, high audience grades , and nobody went to see it. Personally I thought it was garbage, but I seem to in the minority on that.

Dude, it was released when theaters were only operating at like half to even less capacity and also consider the solid D+ viewership that it had.

Hold on a second. Before you spend money, just know it's fun in a so-bad-it's-good kinda way.

It's on Prime and the stream is decent, so I imagine VUDU is as well.

Oh I know what I'm in for. I checked out the trailer.

I'll check it out on Prime. Thanks.

I like Shia Labeouf in Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull. Think he gets a bad rap in that movie. Wouldn't mind seeing him in Indy 5 again.

I don't think he's one of the main issues of that film. There's so much more
