I'm not ashamed to say, I enjoyed them both.
Both films were inane, puerile, nonsenical, predictable and cliche ridden...but...
There are times when I don't want to think, when I just want to lie on my settee with a couple of beers, a bag of crisps and be entertained.
Critics never slammed Tom and Jerry or Road Runner even though we all knew that neither Wiley or Tom would ever win......they were inane, puerile, nonsenical, predicatable and cliche ridden...and we all loved them.
It's a given that whenever there is a Hollywood blockbuster, the critics slag it off. Why are these people in a job..they ALWAYS get it wrong

I've always thought that people who become critics are usually those who have failed in the area they are criticising, its the old them that can do, them that can't teach
