..."Hollywood is producing so much crap these days that anything remotely interesting is suddenly the best thing ever".
share100% agree! That includes most of the Oscar nominees, too.
shareIts an exceptionally well done movie, especially for something as deep and expansive as the book series is. Villeneuve deserves credit for putting it all together. I really don't count many flaws but I also watched it with the idea that there will be more films coming. That should explain the abruptness of the ending and why many of the characters felt like they were being introduced rather than well developed. I hope i'm right on that.
If anyone's interested, I reviewed the movie on my youtube channel. Appreciate any feedback. Trying to improve -https://youtu.be/OQkq-RM2v0U

"Then explain the critical praise it is receiving?"
I just did. Read carefully.
"Why don't you be honest and just say you didn't like it"
Because i liked it. Again, read carefully.
"But it's not OK to say you are right and everyone else is wrong."
I never said that. READ. CAREFULLY.
Read WHAT carefully? You only agreed "it is interesting".
shareI agree,
I give it a 7/10
Good, maybe even pretty good, but not great
