Your mileage may vary

I'm sorry you felt that way about it. Perhaps I was in the right mood when I saw the movie. I know that I've occasionally watched supposedly classic films and was bored to tears by them. Sometimes I'll give them another chance and watch them a second time in the hopes I was too sleepy or distracted the first time. Usually my first instincts were correct, but other times I've enjoyed the movie on the second screening. The same thing goes for books. Unfortunately, there are so many unwatched movies and unread books waiting for me that it's rare for me to give any of these things a second chance.

Then there are those movies that are universally reviled that I have enjoyed immensely. Two examples are Johnny Mnemonic and the remake of Solaris. I also liked Tank Girl. I guess there's no accounting for taste.

Are there any movies you'd like to see added to those lists?

C.X.
