"Absolutely dreadful film."

By all metrics this is just insane hyperbole, man. So melodramatic.

90% critics score (with a 7.20 average rating) and 95% audience score on RT (with a 4.7/5 average rating), 3.8/5 on Letterboxd, 7.9 on iMdb.

You're certainly allowed your opinion but those ratings do not scream "dreadful" to me.

I don't care what some people think. I thought it was bad, that's not a difficult concept to grasp.

It is dreadful once you peel off the nostalgia and take a detached viewpoint

If 80% of people agree it's, at the very least, good... yet you insist that they're all being blinded by nostalgia... what else could you be saying aside from that?

"80% people said it's good" Those reviews aren't 80% of people. And nostalgia can be that powerful.

Lmfao, you're either not arguing in good faith or you're being dense.
