2/10
The audiences aren't stupid
22 January 2017
After watching about two scenes from the movie, my thoughts were, "if this were a 90s movie, I'd probably give it a 6/10" but it's 2011 for crying out loud. I read some reviews saying it's for kids, leave your minds by the door to enjoy the movie. Speaking as someone who watched the first three installments as a kid and teen, this was a disappointment. Bland humor, terrible effects, bad lines and delivery. Maybe it's similar to the first installment in effects but that was 2001 and that was the best they could do. And that's why we enjoyed it. My parents enjoyed it then and they didn't have to drop their brains and forget every ounce of sensibility to do so. We saw the best effects, animations and adventures of that time and we had to think outside the box to understand it. It's different with this movie, it was 2011, better technology, new ways to add elements to the movie and this was the best you could come up with? I hope by 2020, we won't be asked to act like zombies, forget we have brains or go with the excuse "for 4 year olds only" to enjoy epic fails like this. You know how you can do better? Don't treat the audience like senseless carrots.
