If you "have a question" or need "explanation"; this movie isn't for you


Whether you're a troll, a Michael Bay fan or simply someone who does not understand this masterpiece; don't put any extra strain your brain, watch Passengers with Jennifer Lawrence and Chris Pratt. I won't spoil it for you, but it has explosions and plenty of exposition. You will love it.

Wow, what an insightful remark. You must be really clever since you're making fun of people who like action movies.

awww hope that made you feel better hun :)

of course you realize it just made you seem a bit sad, like you didn't understand it at all and are overcompensating but boards are closing soon, hopefully no one else will notice :)

Someone who disagrees with you is NOT a hater 😉

I don't have questions and i do understand this non-masterpiece. It's a decent movie, no need to be super smart or super-inteligent to get it, but it is so FAR from a masterpiece ...

Do you want time paradox done well? Watch Predestination.

I loved this movie and really connected with it but having a question is fine. Sometimes we simply don't pick up on things. Maybe some people have other things on their mind or weren't totally engrossed in the film and missed out in some subtle indicators.

I would be surprised if there were any intelligent people for whom this movie didn't raise many questions. That's one of the things that makes it so interesting. You imply that you don't have any questions or need any explanations (thus your superiority), which makes me suspect that yours was a superficial viewing and you didn't really pay close attention. As for "Passengers", it was a different style of movie, but also very entertaining. It's possible to like both.

People calling this movie a "masterpiece" is the very reason why others call it garbage.

It was a flawed okay movie.

I still wouldn't mind hearing her lecture on why Portugues sounds so different from other Romance languages.
