At least Anarchy and Election Year were significantly better. Was really anticipating Passengers after seeing the trailer but then heard such negative things about it so never bothered to check it out. Might do some day though.

Not in a hurry to give any of these a second chance.
(Actually, Hotel Artemis is on Showtime often and it’s just underwhelming.)

These weren’t great concepts ruined by subpar directors, or overwhelmed casts. These are flicks helmed by proven members of the industry.

Just that ugly ass vest Affleck wore.

It could have been so much better.
