Sorry, but like I always told my boys, "Try it first, and THEN tell me you don't like it". Do I not watch John Wayne films because he gave a right-wing interview when he was really old? No, because John Wayne movies generally tell exciting stories, have many other actors, and are about a lot more than just John Wayne. Most of those listed might be classified as somewhat gratuitous crowd pleasers, but so was Paul McCartney? Also, as a critic, you need to understand the bad ones as a reference frame for the good ones?
