I am pretending to like this movie...am I alone?


This reminds me a lot of JFK by Oliver Stone, except there is a skinny and atrophied Tony Stark and young Han Solo (whom I cannot stand).

I am not sure what all the hype is about, but overly long and indulgent.

If you are saying you like this movie because your friends/family all say it's great, stop doing that. Stand up for your views. I happen to agree with you. Other people are doing the same thing as you; they're 'pretending' to like it because of all of the undeserved hype. They need a voice to articulate their boredom and disappointment. Be that voice.

Well of course I have my own views. haha thank you for this advise though. I guess I am speaking more to the ideas that everyone says this is so great and its a Chris Nolan film.

I had a hard time making it through this, putting this in the "once is enough' category.

If you didn't like the movie you don't have to be afraid to say so, just brave enough to admit that it's about you and not the movie. I guarantee you nobody involved in this film is taking it off their resumes anytime soon.
