    The last two might make sense, the others don’t. But regardless, what is boring to one might not be to others. Some watch movies for visual spectacle and beautiful shots, others for deep, well written stories and sentimentality, strong emotion well portrayed, for instance. Preference is not necessarily an objective measure of quality, is what I’m saying, and that’s okay. That’s why you find some critic that watches movies for the same reasons and then try not to miss the movies he also enjoyed…

      Or maybe all art house films get described this way when, like any other art form, plenty of them just suck.

      Sometimes a movie just sucks and won’t accept that it sucks.
