Summary

I've heard from various people that Fantastic Four is tolerable, even somewhat fun, if you accept it for what it is: a goofy, dopey superhero movie not to be taken too seriously. I'll probably watch it on DVD.

I actually enjoyed House of Wax, I loved the campy horror and it actuallly had some cool effects and a few scares. It was better than any horror movie this year and I dont know why it got a low score. I also thought Dukes of Hazzard was good although I am a big fan of the shows re-runs.

Same here. It was at least technically well-made. Goes well with a big bag of popcorn and coke.

Dukes of Hazzard could not of possibly done better.. In that way... This is the best it could reach in the TomatoMeter.... theres no way it could of gotten higher. I do not agree that House of Wax was the scariet horror flick this year. There were many good ones, if not, weird ones.

1. The Devils Rejects
2. High Tension

And other that were somewhat better.

I believe Fantastic Four was the highest grosser on this list. I still say it wasn't bad, just uninspired. A good rehash of an old formula.

i completely agree with Sportswitz. House of wax was a good movie in my opinion and i believe that if one person finds a movie worthwhile then whose to say its crap? exactly- balding old virginal film critics with no life, no friends and a failed film career for themselves.
