So that's a no to the question of if you actually watched the film then - or do you believe that exaggeration is a good form of critique - if so you should write for the Daily Mail here in the UK, they love the sensationalist way of 'reporting'. “Hancock’s taunters repeatedly goad him into outrageous acts of violence by shouting the word “asshole” at the top of their lungs – not exactly unfettered comic inspiration, let alone when it is reiterated twenty or thirty times”.

The only thing Jason Bateman should be cast in is Teen Wolf the next Generation. What a waste...

It makes me wonder if it was written just to be the opposite of what every other critic was saying about the movie. Since it's not coming from a very famous or important source, this makes it kind of a useless review, where I would assume the critic who wrote it probably just wanted to look different. Maybe they just don't understand movies in the normal way but that is also useless. This review is very weird.
