That's the only thing I can do for you:

Why should I be interested in proving anything to you? Why should I care that much? You can not put a whole life in a two hour movie, the same way you can not explain such a complex thing as movie in a couple of words. I may give you the answer, the way I saw it, but it won't work, because without providing the proof it is pointless. This video (in fact, there is three parts), tries to present such a proof. Anyway, it's up to you to decide whether you want to search for the answer or not. Just as it happens with most of the questions in our lives. I have zero interest in convincing you of anything. Why would I need that? Why do I need you? All I'm doing is suggesting you an explanation to a question that bothers you. And I won't bother you any longer.
But it is a fact that there is something about this movie that you do not understand. You don't understand why so many people like it. Hence, you do not understand either this movie, or people in general. You have all the right to consider it bad, as well as the right to wonder why so many people liked it. They also evaluated the movie and don't want anyone to change their opinion. The possible truth is that both, you and them, didn't get the movie, which puts all of you in the same position.
And by the way, "to be not interested in a particular answer" is a pure ignorance.
Give it a try. It shows that the movie isn't bad at all and actually tells some very important things. The movie addresses exactly the question of the stupidity of the masses.
It is the most normal reaction to consider this movie stupid. But it is stupid only on the surface. It was made that way because it was meant to make stupid people realize that they are stupid. A lot about this movie is explained here
