[@Awson] Didn't say you did, nor was that what I attempted to imply. I said some people/critics did. And it's not "an assumption" it's the thing they praise highly in their reviews. :/

It was a video game, not a movie and honestly it's a little silly to point out how people can have the audacity to assume why people -liked- a movie. Then in the very next breathe explain why people -didn't- like the movie.

I saw it in theaters, it still sucked and bored me and my roommate to tears. It just wasn't a well made movie in my opinion...it was a lot of shallow visuals, that got stale because of repetition and no actual substance. Characters made constant stupid decisions and didn't grow or have any arcs, the story didn't have clear rules and had several continuity errors.

The Grey was a "survival, outdoorsy movie" and it kind of sucked. So that doesn't say a whole lot really. If that's really all it has going for it. :/
