@RayatoTV yeah but in all fairness, its very difficult to compare a comedy to a drama. Granted its not as good as The Artist or Drive, but its still solid. Is Annie Hall better then Raging Bull? Its apples and oranges.
They're defending a film for being implausible crowdpleasing entertainment, that critics are needlessly attacking, but that was the same for both of McG's Charlie's Angels films and yet absolutely everyone trashes those. I like the guy - I like his big brash primary colours. I think he's a decent director.
Besides I agree with facts Tom should have won and Reese is not interesting enough to fight for, another glitch is very obvious to a population of let me say 30 million people - we all recognise that the language used between Tom and Ivan is not Russian, but Serbo-croatian, with Tom pronouncing it badly, and Ivan fairly. Sad it is that movie makers did not pay attention to this and did not allow budget for a Russian translator for JUST two sentences.
@chemsigfigs I don't know how they didn't know this, they mention Chelsea Handler as if they know who she is and then they say that it is completely implausible that Chelsea and Reese would be friends in real life. We all know how Chelsea Handler got the part in the movie right? Oh yeah, her FRIEND Reese Witherspoon. *eyeroll@WhatTheFlick*
why have a 10 rating-scale (and not %) if you can give 6.8 ??(which - for those who might not know - means that it was better than 6.7 but not quite 6.9)
@replicant1027 Based on the lack of reviews, I'm gonna go a head and guess that Ghost Rider was probably not screened for critics. And of course, that's usually a very bad sign.
I personally loved it... I mean, Lauren was sort of flat, but I think the action and comedy in this was amazing. Thing is, it's not the sort of movie like Inception where we can analyze and come up with theories on, nor is it meant to be an emotional film like the Titanic. It's just meant to be a simple movie that gives us a good laugh and it succeeds in that well. Considering that this movie is 2 genres that should never mix, I think it was done fantastically.
I don't find Reese Witherspoon attractive at all. I know it's superficial to say, but on the other hand, the studios present her as some sort of bombshell, so I think I get to judge.
Chelsea Handler ??? the best friend was the best thing in the movie. Reese Witherspoon's character would have totally slept with Tom Hardy and kept doing so until they forced her to stop dating both of them. Once it caught up with her, she would have stopped dating for a few months before she started back to dating one or both of them. It was funny because they fell back on pc cues.
That was strange review. 9 minutes of praise followed by scores that don't reflect that praise. Makes one wonder what the scores actually mean. Apparently the scores are just a reflection of the artistic merits of the film, which weren't discusses, as opposed to whether or not it is a good movie worthy of seeing, which the discussion clearly implied.
@kevdav63 Yeah, relative to the enthusiastic review the scores were low. It's unfortunate that fun but well-crafted films don't get the credit they deserve--even among this crowd.
@bloodrazr the difference is that this look ridiculous in a funny kind of way with good, charming actors... Twilight is ridiculous in a SAD kind of way
@RayatoTV Stop focusing on the points, the points don't matter, listen to what they're saying. All movies can't be looked at with the same eyes, using the same point system for movies this different won't work, apples and oranges etc.
I fucking hated this movie, it was good upon till the end and the choice was fucking awful. She should have choose none of them. So fucked up... just awful.
@MrSplatterPlatter Just because something seems like a more serious, respectable movie doesn't mean it deserves a better rating. This means war isn't going to win some sort of oscar but thats not really why it was made is it? Get off your highhorse and actually see the movie before you get so pretentiously snobby about it."well omg this movie sucks coz it ain't art!!1" ugh
This basically summarizes WTF. Check metacritic or rottentomatoes. These 4 clowns are almost the only ones who liked this mess of a movie. The worst channel of TYT. Bar none.
I hate that argument "It's so bad, it's good" or "It knows it's bad, so it's good" no, it's just fucking bad.
This still isn't the worst film of all time (I'm looking at you, Samurai Cop 2).
does any one know that basey sounding song right after heigrk gets off the fishing boat? plz help im looking for it and havent found it
Is it just me, or is the little "bye" at the end of every episode from Christy absolutely adorable?
Who does she pick in the end?
is this a remake or did the filmmakers watch an RKelly and Usher music video
Is there no review for Woman in Black?
I am confused as to how anyone found this movie good....
@RayatoTV yeah but in all fairness, its very difficult to compare a comedy to a drama. Granted its not as good as The Artist or Drive, but its still solid. Is Annie Hall better then Raging Bull? Its apples and oranges.
No Ghostrider review?

Reese and Chelsea are actually friends in real life.
This looks like it's based on SPY vs SPY from the pages of MAD magazine.
I love ben's jingoism...
@replicant1027 Based on the lack of reviews, I'm gonna go a head and guess that Ghost Rider was probably not screened for critics. And of course, that's usually a very bad sign.
Why are you calling the german actor "Euro Trash"?
Is that now new acceptable racism in america?
Ben looks like he just rolled out of bed and is still in his jams. Christ.
After this review they should review Murnau's Sunrise. Now there's a good com rom! I guarantee you it plays in some city in the US every year.
@jozietech I didn't think he even sounded American in the clip they showed and I'm British.
The only time these review are useful is when the movies are really good. Otherwise everything in the middle gets blurred.
I personally loved it...

Same Girl reference... I love it!

@jozietech In the trailer he doesn't sound american, at all.
I cant wait to see this on Friday :)

Sorry Christy, she made the right choice, if only so the other guy could have a happier resolution/ending with his other relationship.

@201stars Tom Hardy > Chris Pine
movies like this it's always better than expected. that's the benefit of having the lowest possible expectations
I didn't see this, but based on their comments I would bet she went for Chris Pine.
This was way too cheesy for me.
@BRm2008 How does this only have 12 dislikes?
Yes Christy I also think she picked wrong
@bloodrazr the difference is that this look ridiculous in a funny kind of way with good, charming actors... Twilight is ridiculous in a SAD kind of way
Movie ratings are relative - Roger Ebert

Nice channel
im gonna see it just for chelasea handler
I fucking hated this movie, it was good upon till the end and the choice was fucking awful. She should have choose none of them. So fucked up... just awful.
Jonathan Kim sliced this movie into strips and fed it to the seagulls.
I like you Reese Witherspoon! Keep it up!
So for those keeping track, WTF gave "This Means War" the same score as "Drive" and "The Artist". WTF indeed! LOL
Jonathan Kim's review was much more accurate. you guys are flailing....
you mean tom hardy from Warrior lol
Amazing! Critics that aren't being pretentious for once. For a second there you people sounded like the rest of the worlds audience.
too many spoilers...
@joe133322 so what you're saying is this is a part of TYT young turks right oh i didn't know that that.
@MrSplatterPlatter Just because something seems like a more serious, respectable movie doesn't mean it deserves a better rating.
