I watched this movie yesterday and can't understand the hype around it. Totally overrated from my point of view. Not even funny. So disappointed.

I haven't watched it but Richard Brody said it was a very superficial movie without real character.
What I call Twitter reviewers loved it, tho. !

It is not only the twitter critics that gave it wonderful reviews. It is at 86 on Metacritic. Thank you for telling about Richard Brody. I didn't know him. I agree with his review. link

I don't want to sound like one of those Batman fanboys but one of the multiple problems with RT and Metacritic is that they promote consensus between critics and according to Owen Gleiberman some professional critics kind of wait for Twitter reactions to "decide" what to think. I posted the article here a few weeks ago: benedict-cumberbatch.freeforums.net/thread/374/film-criticsIf true it's a shameful situation and TBH I can imagine that's the case with a few recent movies. I have a few critics in which I trust. Most of them from old school. I'm not always agreed with them but I like to read them and I know they aren't influenced by external factors.
