Why so harsh on this movie?

Rating: Null/10 (6 August 2004)

This is a good thrilling action film. Why are people so harsh about it? It's not meant to be completely plausible, it's sci-fi. Did someone call Spielberg a "bad" filmmaker? HA. That's like saying Rocket Richard doesn't know how to skate. Now, if Brett Hull was saying Richard doesn't skate I might listen for awhile, but some guy posting to IMDb is just silly.
It's an entertaining movie, shows some interesting things in the future. I liked it. No, I didn't feel a need to buy into a whole consumer franchise over the movie, no t-shirts, bumper stickers, happy meals... but that's okay.
