[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] I second that. Bravo, mrneutron. I agree with the vast majority of your post. The only point I disagree on is using "entertaining" as part of the criteria in judging a film. I think that entertainment carries more than one meaning. There is the traditional meaning in that for something to be entertaining, it must illicit an emotional/physical response. [i]Terms of Endearment[/i] is entertaining because it is emotionally charged and the viewer develops a connection to the characters. [i]Armageddon[/i] is entertaining in that it is a solid feel-good action movie that will probably leave the majority of its American (read: US) veiwers in a good state of mind. But entertaining can also be used to refer to the mental response. That's how I look at [i]2001[/i]. It required me to think and interpret what I was watching. It produced an intellectual reaction, and that's why I can say that I'm entertained by it. [/QB][/QUOTE]
