To insult one's intelligence is now fair game!

Rating: 6/10 (3 January 2015)

This guy, Ben Affleck, is one hell of a "winner." The press seems to have re-warmed to him after he married Jennifer Garner, so anything he touches now gets praised. I mean, this is the only reason I can come up with as to why this film has received so many good reviews, and sooo much undeserved hype!! The same was the case for Argo - Over-hyped BS!! This film is not a very bad film, and would have been excellent, only if the director had put just a little more thought into the execution of the story. So many poorly casted characters, and soooo many gaping holes in the plot. I had to actually go back to look at the director's resume, and was shocked to learn he directed Se7en! The dumbing-down of western audiences is now complete! A complete insult to anyone's intelligence, if you ask me. I gave this film a 6 only because it held my attention for the first 45 minutes of the exercise!
