So, it got lousy reviews...it still had an incredible showing at the box office. Personally, I just saw it last night, and I really liked it. I think the critics just expected something different from the movie, and they let their own expectations get in the way of what the movie really was.
They wanted a superhero spoof flick, not a bona fide superhero movie. My only hope now it that this doesn't become a franchise, because this movie stands so well on it's own. Not that Will Smith is known for doing sequels. I think he learned his lesson from MiB 2 and Bad Boys 2...
