I thought it was ok. The transformation scenes were pretty incredible. Very gory movie too...

Who would ever complain to try to get their movie back? Especially in this day and age when you can review stuff? I mean, did you watch the trailer? What the hell did you expect?

Chalk it up to the game and move on.

Yeah, I have only got my money back once.....the projector broke. And actually, they just gave me vouchers, they refused to give cash back. At least I had a great $8 popcorn that day.

For the most part I agree, but there was an instance where I was damned near demanding the ticket price back...2005, the movie was The Brothers Grimm (Matt Damon, Heath Ledger, directed by Terry Gilliam) that I assumed was another Gilliam masterpiece. My wife was so looking forward to seeing it, that movie sucked more than a sucking device in an electrified sucking machine in a universe where everything sucked. To this day I have no idea how that film made it through to the theaters, and it was a waste of $20. Looking back, I would have asked for the $20 refund. At the time I was shellshocked.

I agree with you. I'll always check out rotten tomatoes, imdb, yahoo movies, etc before heading to the theater to see what the general response to a new movie is. It hasn't failed me yet.

I was on the fence on spending money to see this.

Now, I'm in the yard of "No".

No movie is ever worth the ticket prices, so I seldomly go, but when I do I also read reviews. Doesn't sound like I am going to see this one.
