A Good Movie I Didn't Like, And A Bad Movie I Liked

GOOD MOVIE I DIDN'T LIKE: "Hanna". By all accounts, I should love this movie. It's quirky, stylish, well-acted, very well made, with a conscious "IN YO FACE" style which young, testosterone-filled men are known to enjoy! And most of them, including most film critics, did!
Strangely, I found myself both acknowledging that it was a good movie, and checking my watch, at the same time. Not sure why it never really clicked for me. Anyway, it's great, you should all see it, but I won't, ever again.
BAD MOVIE I LIKED: "Knowing". A slightly interesting first act draws you in, and while all the stupidity that follows should send you headed for the exits early, it sure didn't send me! And the ridiculously, overblown, idiotic ending, which you should rightfully scorn with all of your might, I found intensely moving and wonderful!
God, what a piece of shit. I loved it!
