    I’m one of those folks who wasn’t as enthralled by SM as others. Sure, the movie doesn’t suck, but it just didn’t suck me in. I’m thinking that many people (I said many, not most) like the film because they’re told “it’s good, it deserves Best Pic.”

    Maybe I’m still uneased by the total snub of Witless Protection. I dunno.
