How the hell is it a bad movie?
How the hell is it a good movie? There is absolutely nothing good about it.

Good to know you guys thought the same thing I did. I also made it to about 40 minutes before I realized I should stop wasting my time waiting for it to stop being terrible. Somehow it has a 3.4 average out of 150k ratings on Netflix.
Just got done watching the director's cut of Amadeus on Netflix. Wikipedia describes it as a "black comedy" which I don't agree with at all.
Anyway, I've been meaning to buy it for a while, so I should pick it up.
INK - wow, 3 people think it sucked so far. We are not alone! Off to Netflix to rate it a 0. Ahhh, I see that one person liked it but was high at the time.

You sir are fail.
Fail for having good taste in movies apparently. Because none of you can tell me anything good about it. It's shitty.
I liked it but only because I was high at the time![]()
How the hell is Taxi Driver a good movie? It sucked.
The City of Lost Children - 7/10 - Wow, this movie is weird and I really have no idea wtf it's about, but it's pretty interesting.
Winter's Bone - 9/10 - So far, my favorite film of the year. Jennifer Lawrence is going to be a big deal, and her performance in this is career-making. She plays a 17-year-old named Ree Dolly living in a poor community in the Ozarks, where she takes care of her young siblings and catatonic mother. A bail bondsman shows up and informs her that her father is due in court on a meth charge and appears to have skipped bail, after having put up the family home for bond. The rest of the film is devoted to her search for her dad, and the dangers she faces in the paranoid backwoods community of criminals in which he traveled. The whole film is bleak and troubling, but Ree lifts it out of the muck as a strong, focused lead.
Avatar 8/10 Very good movie. I have to chuckle at all the Political angst some had about this movie. The Graphics were simply awesome, even though I just watched it on BluRay without 3D. Story is Above Average.
IMHO: Avatar was OK. But it is not an original story at all and it will be forgotten in 5 years time. The 3D hype sucks. I specifically do not see 3D movies anymore. All they do is bother me and cost me money. Avatar 6/10.
