Finally got through Bird Box tonight. There's some bad things about it, but I wasn't totally sorry I watched it. That's about the best I could say about it.
As general rule, I don't carry any baggage into a movie. I start watching with the desire to like it and it's the movie's job to not lose that initial good will. The majority of the time I find that most movies are enjoyable in their own way, even if I know they're not actually good by any objective, measurable standard. One of the only things that will make me dislike a movie is if it starts strong but finishes with a whimper. There's been so many times when I wasn't feeling a movie and it won me over in the last act...sometimes in the last few minutes or seconds. If a movie ends well, then all else is forgiven.
Bid Box didn't end very well.
