You don't have to actually hate it -- but you do have to be mystified by the fanatical devotion of its admirers

If you don't like Shawshank, you're just too stupid to get it.
I think that's the typical Movie Board rebuttal for disagreements, right?

I don't hate it. But I don't like it as much as most people either.

Actually it's "snob" -- the M/TV equivalent of "racist" on the rest of the site

Na. He is right. Just say you don't like Arrested Development and see how many people call you dumb or tell you how the humor just went over your head.

Damn, given the time frame of the plot, I figured you'd be all over it.

It's one of those movies that I took way too long to watch. I finally did last year. Although I thought it was fine, it wasn't great to me. I do feel though that it was built up way too much and that is what contributed to me being underwhelmed.

Seems like someone is a Groucho.
There are movies that are perfect movies for what they are...then there are the best movies ever made.
This falls into the latter category.
