Well, I didn't go into it with the IMO excessively expectations that some were, and so I came out liking it, quite a bit. (For me, movies that I bother to go to are by default good unless something makes it bad -- if I have reason to think it might be bad, I don't go to it at all. Alas, the duties of time management.).
