Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

        Sanctum

        I watched it, and as a scuba diver was like…yeaaaah…

        The end was especially ripe. But it was just dumb decision after dumb decision.

          I’m an occasional diver myself (perhaps I should call myself an ‘avid diver’ in honour of Reddit drama) and it seemed to me that most of the poor decisions were punished as you’d imagine.

          I just enjoyed the sense of dread the film captured and I thought the father was a great character, well portrayed.

            yeah agree. Just the end was waaay too…silly.

            It had a decent core to the movie i guess. It has been quite a while since i watched it, and the main thing that sticks out is the last 10-15 minutes where my eyes just kinda rolled to the back of my head since in the end, the ridiculous decisions didnt have consequences for specific cast members. (and I am trying hard not to spoil anything with my phrasing here).

            Its a movie worth watching, just not one I would probably ever re-watch outside of once a decade or so.
