Excellent Summer watch

Rating: 8/10 (16 June 2013)

It's amazing that all ordinary viewers who have seen this movie by and large love it while the critics have almost as a group given it the Thumbs Down ... is this a sinister plot to can the movie and it's makers or is it that critics really don't get what makes for a great cinematic experience.
While I agree that the four Horsemen aren't well fleshed out, they are loads of fun individually and as a group, and together the 2 titans (Morgan Freeman and Michael Caine) who add enormous credibility to the proceedings,make for a real cinematic delight.
I guess critics don't like to applaud an intelligent,crisp and entertaining caper that provides real entertainment. For them the duller the better - watching paint dry would definitely earn an Oscar nod for some of these guys .. get a life guys
