A lot of the same critics that praised The Last Jedi are giving negative reviews for this film, calling it too much fan service.
This gives me hope that it actually may be good!
"Fan service" is bad?
The problem with a lot of movies or music is that the don't play to their fan base. I have no intention of watching this but if Chatters start raving, I'll catch it.
I'm still smarting from Crystal Turd.
It's usually a case of "critic reviews are much higher than audience reviews", so if this is low down on the critics' side, then it will be almost 0% on the audience's side!
That’s not really the current trend these days. Critics love everything to be be PC and woke.
shareClueless, as usual.
shareThen please sir, explain your take on the ratings then?

shareThat's your excuse? RT?
Look, even if the critic ratings haven't been forcefully raised because of threats from Disney keeping future exclusives from them and making them say nice things about that insipid movie (which I doubt), I'm still sticking with the more accurate audience rating for that particular movie.
I used to trust RT a long time ago, but from movies past around 2015, and especially reviews of Disney movies after that time, I wouldn't trust RT now as far as I can physically throw them.
Ugh! Please look at this thread again. You are totally agreeing with my point but don’t even know it.
shareFan service is cheap and for people who want to live in the past. I really dislike it when they repeat lines directly from the older movie. It says to me that they can't come up with something good new. I like the past but leave it there. I'll watch an old movie then.
shareThat's correct. The Force Awakens was a fan service after the Lucas' prequels and look how that turned out to be... yuck.
shareDepends.
Anyone can be a critic these days and some random movies get great reviews. It doesn't take much to get rave reviews.
Bad reviews from critics means it's either an absolute abomination or a popcorn movie that the masses will enjoy but the more pretentious critics simply don't care for.
Flip a coin.
Haha. Maybe. How many of them have Indy 4 a good review???
