I use the term entertainment loosely

[miasmum]

I have just watched the film We Need To Talk About Kevin.

What a depressing, miserable film that was. I am sure it was very powerful, but boy I want to slit my wrists.

There are certain films that make me think 'and that is why I don't watch films" and believe me, that was one of them

[Diflower]

Aah, that was definitely one I chose not to see
We watched A Beautiful Mind last week, that was good

[debih]

I haven't seen the film but the book was terribly depressive...

[miasmum]

It was truly awful all the way through not one glimmer of light

I read the reviews and thought "Nah ah, no way"

[Workingman]

The description in the TV guide put me off; and the fact that arty-farty types rated it highly cemented my decision not to watch.

[miasmum]

I watched it because the book got good reviews, on here too I think?

[Workingman]

I find that when things get rated below four it is usually deserved. When they get more than eight I find it is more often from a clique rather than a general view.

I'd never heard of this one, but on reading Wikipedia's description of it, I certainly
wouldn't consider it as the sort of entertainment I would ever consider watching.
