Jesus Christ people and being worried about what other think. use your own god damn judgement and see it for yourself. what the hell is with people now and days. everyone just plays follow the leader.

I was anxious to see initial reactions and the critics response, purely because they usually love his directorial efforts. Despite their words of caution. i'm still going to a premiere screening. Seeing this boards reaction is embarrassingly pathetic. People are now declaring Affleck a terrible director. After one flop? Pft, ok.

I just tend the bar.

Up to 37% on RT now

All critics is at 34% right now. That's every tom, dik and harry on the web. The top critics have rated it at 17%.

Also the audience score is only 68%.

No one is declaring him as a bad director.

Having monitored the Reddit community and i can tell you that what i stated is the case. I know not all share that opinion of Affleck. Just those that do annoy me.

I just tend the bar.

Affleck hasn't directed anything good, ever.

I loved Argo and The Town but this movie just flat out sucks.

Who are the one out of four moron critics giving this thing a pass?

Honestly.

"Who are the one out of four moron critics giving this thing a pass?"

Best question of the night.

Now is at 39% which blows because I want this movie to do great, not excellent but at least great :/ Really wanna go see it but Arclight prices are way too expensive. The critics on that website gave 20% rotten to Monster Trucks so I think they are either too drunk or too high because of the holidays.

reply

Why not catch a matinee then?

reply

Wait, so you're saying Monster Trucks is good?

These pansy-ass critics can't handle a gangster movie anymore. I'd be surprised if they wouldn't trash The Godfather upon reviewing it again. Yes, the icon that critics lauded for so long as the end-all, be all of cinema is now garbage for MORAL REASONS.

Get your head out of your ass, Luke.

The movie is OK, but it does have issues, not least the fact that it's a bit too polished. And there's one deviation in particular from the source material that is quite baffling.

reply

It should be at 5%.

Live by Night is a horrible piece of garbage.
