Dumbest reasons you’ve heard for disliking a movie?

My dad is the same way. I'm glad he enjoyed Django, it was a great movie.

I had a similar problem with mom watching "Jupiter Ascending." She only watched the first five minutes of it, where you see how Jupiter's parents met in Russia, and then her dad gets killed in a home invasion, which was what motivated her mom to move to America before she was born. The story takes time to get awesome, and yet mom did not have enough patience to wait. She sees the dad get shot by a thug and then leaves the room. So sad. I still can't convince her to give the movie a second chance.

Anyone who hates a movie for one dumb moment and nothing more. For example:

Peter Parker goes emo and dances like a goofball in Spider-Man 3? Worst movie ever!!!

A dinosaur talks (says one single word) in a brief dream sequence in Jurassic Park 3? 1/10!!!

Wolverine kicks someone in the nuts in X-Men 3? The holocaust of motion pictures!!!

They drive a car through a falling building in 2012? The director and his entire immediate family should be drawn and quartered!!!

They drive a truck through a fireball explosion and come out completely unscathed in Twister? An abomination of cinema!!! But it was totally fine when it happened in Terminator 2 and True Lies. I guess logical fallacies are okay when James Cameron does it?

The great thing is that none of these movies are any good and have plenty of moments to pick apart and ridicule, but most people only focus on one single stupid moment as their base criticism. Like, if you took that one brief moment out, would they like the movie?

Subtitles. I can’t stand it when someone walks out on an interesting film (or most recently the tv series Our Boys) just because it isn’t in English and they have to read subtitles. If a film is good I get absorbed in it, and reading subtitles seems no different from listening to English dialogue.

"It's black and white."
"They don't even speak English in it."
"The main character was ugly."
"I don't know who any of these actors are."
"It doesn't take place in America".
"Too many white people are in it."
"Not enough action." (It's a drama)
"I couldn't relate." (It's a space movie)

I remember someone complaining on Amazon about Con Air (1997). They were pissed off as it was "The most inaccurate portrayal of diabetes they've ever seen"

“I haven’t actually seen it, but I hate it anyway.”

It’s so strange when people say they don’t like movies these days because they think all the comic book films, reboots and endless sequels are garbage. It’s so irritating to hear them talk about excessive use of unrealistic CGI and entire movies being filmed in front of a blue screens. The biggest one I get tired of hearing is how people think modern movies are packed full of obvious PC themes.

I tell them just don’t watch any new movies then.
