Now, now, stryker , be fair: I made the point that I did not dislike it. As I said, I couldn't have stayed with it if I had (my regard for you notwithstanding). To be fair, Doghouse, you are damning with faint praise.
That's one way of putting it, and I can't say it's one with which I'd necessarily take issue. I've written very little on these boards about films I did truly dislike (and there have been a handful I've acknowledged as quality films I disliked anyway for my own reasons). It's so much more enjoyable to discuss the ones I do like. But on the rare occasions I slam a film, I don't hold back. Next to that, "damning with faint praise" ain't so bad, if you wanna look at it that way. I'd add, of course, that neither my criticisms nor my faint praise were in any way to be conflated with the quality of your tastes or opinions. Some people do that; I don't. I'll never tell anyone their opinion about a film is wrong; just that I may disagree, and why.

Comedy, for one thing.
