These movies are for stupid people.

    I loved the first one and despised the second one.

    I really don’t know how I feel about a third, but I’m certain it will set the tone for how I feel about any subsequent movies.

      I watched the first one with my extended family on one of those Christmas gatherings where everyone is trying to pretend they don’t hate each other. To be fair, I watched it a second time on my own to see if the movie was actually better than I initially thought.

      nope. I appreciate Chris Evans’ portrayal of a shithead legacy with a grudge, because my real life sets me up to be a guy like that in my real family (which is very much like the fictional family in the movie). It’s just so ham handed, though. Like an episode of a kid’s Disney show from the late 90’s.

      And Daniel Craig sounds ridiculous. Good god
