Well, technically, that's the difference between those who like/love it and those who dont, not the sum. Currently a little less than half of the people who voted think RoC was either pretty good or terrific.
Which still doesn't paint a very pretty picture. Name any other product where a little less than half of the surveyed people actually liked, it a full quarter of them actually hate it, and it's still considered a good product. Sure, they might market the crap out of it, dump a bunch on the masses and make a mint, but that doesn't make it any good! The majority like it putting ROC in once again the success column on the people who like it. Good is an opinion and without peramiters we can again go round and round here. What would you measure a good film as without the simple answer of: "I LIKE IT therefore its good" Give me 5 criterias on what makes a film considered good.

I gave the movie 4 out of 5.
Because I knew ahead of time that they were not doing a cartoon or comic faithfull version of GI JOE, I wasn't nearly as dissapointed. Judging more as an action movie with GI JOE themed cast... I still think that the first Predator movie was the closest thing I'v ever seen to a live action GI JOE movie. Just take out the alien and make the bad guys Cobras...

And again, less than half of the votes so far say they like it.

1. Direction 2. Acting 3. Character development 4. Pacing of the plot 5. The ability of the movie to make you forget you're watching a movie, and really suck you in to the world created. RoC fails on all points.

I'm no film expert, but just off the top of my head, and not in any particular order:
1. Direction 2. Acting 3. Character development 4. Pacing of the plot 5. The ability of the movie to make you forget you're watching a movie, and really suck you in to the world created. RoC fails on all points. I can name movies that are critical and commercial successes and thought of as great movies by the majority of people that fail on some if not all of those points.

It's still more then those that didn't like it. And with 5 choices, the chances of getting more then half are slim. More choices you have, the more the percentages are spread out. By saying that "less than half" all you're doing is trying to spin it to you view. The majority liked it. That's all there is to it.

Agree with you Troynos.......... it all falls down to this. ROC is a success financially and with the GI JOE fans per the poll here as well as with the average movie going public..
I have stats to prove it......... Derek does not have stats to dissprove it only opinion. |
