Why are my expectations low or why am i going to see it? lol - I'm going to see it because I love horror movies. My expectations are low given the propensity for horror movie remakes to suck bawls.

I like horror movies but I never liked the Friday the 13th movies, I thought the first one was lame and cheap and not scary, a low budget is no excuse, Evil Dead was scary as f*ck and it cost like what? Nothing?

Blah. It's flawed but I thought it was excellent.

It is kind of an odd mix of Kubrick and Spielberg.

It's a project with huge flaws. However there is much to admire in the film. At the very least Fangorns early production design which can be seen in many points in the film.

So, I haven't seen Mullholland Drive for some reason. Will probably tomorrow.

It's certainly Spielbergs most ambitious, he was trying to make a Kubrick film rather than a Spielberg one, but some of Spielbergs traits managed to sneak in, Kubrick wouldn't have made it as much of a tearjerker. But I like the combination, and Kubricks presense is greatly felt throughout this movie to an extent that I like to think of him as the spiritual director of this movie.

It's overrated but good.

I'd actually consider it a very under-hyped movie since it got such mixed reviews and only has a 6.9/10 at IMDb.

I thought it was good but not great. One thing that always impressed me about with was that one of the characters was a talking teddy bear and they somehow managed to avoid making him overly cutesy and annoying. That was some kind of miracle all by itself.

A.I is awful. Spielberg wasn't up to it, it needed a Kubrick.

Finally got around to seeing There will be blood. Bloody good. Damn a pun.

No.

You don't have a right to this opinion, it's not an awful film, that's a fact, weither or not it is a good film is subjective opinion, you can call it a mediocre film, but awful? Absolutely not.

Movies take a lot of care to make, even the guys who make awful horror movies on a shoestring budget deserve applause just for getting the damn things made, this film took a lot of care, a long f*cking time to make and it had high ambitions and it at least has a mixed response from moviegoers. This is not a badly made film, this is not an inept film and it's not an offensive or insulting film. You CAN'T call this awful, that's drawing the line.
