I watched elysium on the weekend. the premise was good, but it just didnt hook me in, and i was bored after the first half hour.

with the cast it should have been much, much better. district nine was much better.

I thought this was a Good Movies thread? Way over the top South African accents was ridiculous.

More and more "meh" movies are being released these days.

Not good, not bad, not so-bad-they're-good, just "meh."

The time has come for a Meh Movies thread...

Goon is a pretty sweet hockey movie.

Dallas Buyers Club

Bit flat tonally but outstanding performances across the board carry the day.

McConaughey and Leto would've had Oscars in their eyes reading the script.

Jennifer Garner makes plain just plain sexy hotness...
