Afterwards I asked her what the deal was and she basically unloaded on the movie. HATED it. When I mean hated...I mean an utter loathing usually reserved for child rapists


Did she say why she hated it or just that she hated it? I'm curious, but I completely understand if you didn't want to push the issue.

She had a lot of reasons. She doesn't particularly like action movies that much. When she does, she likes them to have identifiable characters, emotion, heart, some kind of believable love story if possible, high stakes, etc.

She found the movie to be a total bore. She said the action scenes went on way too long and were just one after another. She never felt scared for the characters or gave a shite. No heart or emotion, no love interest. Never felt invested. Just boom boom boom over and over again.

I don't agree, although I do see some of her points.

FYI: My wife isn't even remotely a nerd, and is not into comic books or know the characters. But she liked the first Captain America...a lot more.

We probably should have gone to see Grand Budapest Hotel, because she likes Wes Anderson. I could have seen this with a friend or something.
