Did anyone seriously expect anything else?


This had critical and box office stinker written all over it from the start. Will probably be liked by a small majority of people here who will continue to argue the critics got it all wrong even though the imdb user score also drops to something between 6 to 6.9 and the movie will slowly be forgotten over the weeks to come. Anyone who has seen more than 3 movies in their life should know this stuff by now.

Well I certainly hoped for something else. The talent involved had me believe it could actually be good. I wonder why they went ahead with this script.

It's hard to really find fault in a story from someone who worked on it


That is why Lucas sucked with the PT...not only because of yes men but because of storyteller blindness. That is why the best filmmakers are the ones who show their films to their friends for critiques. Jj abrams, spielberg, Russo bros, Lucas pre 90s, and countless great filmmakers have had their worked cities by someone who is distant from the material

Yes, I did. Because of the amount of talent involved and their sincere passion.

Nolan, I love you forever!
