Re: What movie completely exceeded your expectations?

Pompeii. Expected it to be stupid. Well, it sort of was but in a fun way that I loved.

John Carter. The reviews made it seem like it would be awful, but it was a genuinely good movie.

Jupiter Ascending. Reviews made it seem bad, but it was fun.

Jurassic World. Was awesome.

Edge of Tomorrow. Also awesome.

Oooh, I hated "Pompeii". I'm going to complain about the dreaded 'historical accuracy', and also Keifer Sutherland as a Roman. I don't know exactly WHY he can't be a Roman, other than he seemed like an anachronism personified.

However, agree with all the others on your list, with a special shout out to "John Carter" (which should have been named "John Carter of Mars", if not "A Princess of Mars"), which was a genuinely fun, enjoyable popcorn movie. It got so much bad press, and I'm not quite sure why (aside from its bloated production budget).

Yes, not going to claim it was remotely historically accurate. My enjoyment comes down to liking the characters, thinking it is pretty, and liking most things volcano-themed. Not going to claim it is a good movie. I just enjoyed it.

I was expecting Jupiter Ascending to be "Meh". I still don't think it's a great epic, and that the worldbuilding has room for so much more than the plot of the movie, but it was the best choice of inflight movie I had (and the other option was The Hobbit, though I now forget which exactly, but I am inclined to think it was BoFA), and it was good enough in my estimation to buy the DVD, and if I buy the DVD, it's because I like it.
