Yeah, that's also fine here to as even if a movie achieves whatever it's trying to achieve (as I have seen some claim this sort of thing in relation to movies over the years), it can still be boring to the viewer and I can't fault that viewer simply because movies ultimately boil down to ones emotional response/feeling towards a movie and boring is basically the opposite of interesting/entertaining.
but just like how the level of interesting/entertaining vary (basically my 6-10/10), so does the low end of the spectrum(1-5/10(well sort of more 1-4/10 as 5/10 is basically average for me which is not bad but ultimately more of a negative score)) to. so it's not like I would immediately call something 'interesting', great. then on the other end of that equation I would not immediately call something 'uninteresting', boring. since boring represents that more bottom area of movies in general where as say 'great' (or similar words) would represent more of that upper echelon of movies.
Agreed.
Or maybe it [Crank (2006)] did do what it was trying to do perfectly and it just isn't the kind of think I find entertaining.

I agree there are different degrees of uninteresting, but once a movie becomes uninteresting is going to become boring for me to one extent or another.
Agreed.
I can see why you said that as I would say that applies to me to some degree to as even movies I rate 'below average', since they tend to be generally dull/uninteresting (and thereabouts), I guess one could say that is some form of 'boredom', but it's just not that full blown ZERO interest level of boredom yet. so I am not as quick to label something 'boring' til it reaches that point it's totally boring and I can't finish it. then at which point I call it outright boring. basically it gives more value to the word boring when someone does not overuse it, which is why I tend to do things like this.
Please don't reply with a novel, because your replies also start to become uninteresting and boring to me when they are overly long. I'm saying that not to be rude, but as a matter of fact.
Sure, but what I said above needs to be said pretty much to get my point across (who knows, maybe I could have made my point above with fewer words but that's just what came to mind so I type it. so I don't spend too much time re-phrasing things etc). so I can't just say a few words and stop. some people have attention span issues if they can't at least read some of what I said even though I realize I typed a novel in my initial post and I realize some won't read it all because of that.
but even these types can basically read the section I posted to them as if someone is replying in this topic they must have at least some interest in what's said here
