You have an interesting definition of very bad if you think 85 constitutes that

I think you'll like it, there's a lot less virtue-signalling in this one

You are strawmaning in hopes of avoiding my question and acknowledging the false equivalence you just made. I never said my view was consistent with critic consensus like you did, and there was no virtue-signaling in the movies themselves.

Back to the question, who's not looking at the movie critically, you or the critics? You don't need to answer though, the conclusion is obvious. You side with critics and speak as if they're an authority as long as they share your overall opinion, regardless of whether or not their reviews are fair n objective. Now in a desperate attempt to remain consistent, you're deluding yourself into thinking the critics still share your opinion. Yikes.

Edit: deleted

What I have said is that I like this movie. What I said about The Last Jedi in the unrelated thread I you linked too that I have now reviewed is that most critics and film-goers liked the film, which is self-evident. From what I can see, I didn't express any personal opinion on TLJ in that thread.

So, given I have offered an opinion on just one movie, and a single opinion is inherently consistent sooooo...I must be desperate

For the record though, I liked this movie more than The Last Jedi. Which is my personal opinion - I don't recall saying I was looking at the movie critically or that I am a professional film critic. Perhaps you were responding to someone else with that portion of your post.
