No, just getting to the conclusion that even though the two films have the same amount of positive reviews, the Scorsese film have love/hate reviews while Don Jon reviews are just a tad above average. And that love/hate film are usually much more exciting - even if you end up hating them. The Rotten Tomatoes number itself is hiding important information. :p

Which reviewers are your "top" reviewers?
I read those two I mentioned earlier, plus the guy who took over Ebert's column and a buddy of mine who reviews films out of Asheville, NC.
They generally give you an idea of what to expect without spoiling the plot.

That's usually how it goes. Though I've been reading a lot of the negative criticism coming toward Wolf is that it glorifies the content. Which when making a film about a real life douchebag, is bound to happen.

Going to catch Wolf on Wall Street later, have also heard mixed reviews. Regardless if it's good or bad, I still find it ridiculous that Di Caprio has never won an oscar.

I wonder if Jupiter Ascending (there's a trailer) is going to be any good, or it's just going to be a fap fest over Mila Kunis.
It looks shite. The Tom Cruise, Emily Blunt scifi movie looks better.

Shouldve had one for The Aviator, but that is about it
I guess someone didn't get an invite to Arnie's birthday party.

You should go and watch Hundraåringen, such a funny movie...it's really turned out good.
Really? I generally avoid Swedish films (in cinema atleast), even if Robert Gustavsson is a funny fucker.

Just got out from cinema 12 years a slave, holy hell what a movie... Very hard one to watch, great story, big props for the whole cast and production for making it happen. Ewitel ejifor and Fassbender in particular were amazing.
