The movie continues to chug along through the weekend, and we have a host of review sites, newspapers, and big name Youtubers tossing their opinions on it into the mix. While it seems like a good majority of them fall into the positive category keeping us at around 58% on rotten tomatoes, we still have a few negative ones thrown into the mix.
I'm noticing a trend of negatives primarily coming from people that immediately jump to the movie being a toy commercial and base their entire review on that. It's an understandable argument, but it would be nice if they would judge it on it's merits rather than what it's end-goal is.
Anyway, you can find them all below. We will update this as more come in, so feel free to send them to the submit box.
