    I want to see the movie, not because of the movie itself, but because of how split the reviews are. I only heard how absolutely bad it was, but in the first post about it here that i saw, everyone seemed to really like it. I don’t think it’s for me, just because uf ruffalo, but i’m still curious

      I’d say go see it. We loved it. I think it’s probably partly that some people might not catch the tone of the movie, especially Mark Ruffalos character being a parody of several people at once.

      Just watch it without any reviews or prior knowledge and enjoy it for what it is.

      I would not be surprised at all if a large portion of the negative reviews are from right wingers who took offence to the Ruffalo character.

        I’m not a right winger at all, i just don’t think ruffalo is a very good actor. What’s the rightwinger problem with the movie?

          You’ll realise pretty quickly if you watch the film. Ruffalo’s character definitely makes some unflattering allusions to a certain US political figure, and many people are very easily triggered these days by any form of political satire.
