Yeah, I Liked It...So What?
I don't feel like a have to defend myself for liking this film. It's a big, fat Hollywood summer blockbuster "popcorn movie" based on a timeless book. Screw you for not liking it - that's your problem. Movies don't always have to be "fine art" - they CAN be *gasp* ABSURDLY ENTERTAINING at times, too. P.S. - the shot of them going down the highway in the mini-van is cinematic MAGIC!
