So... the movie blogs seem to be abuzz with the news that Andrew Dominik's KILLING THEM SOFTLY got a very rare Cinemascore of F (although two other movies this year, THE DEVIL INSIDE and SILENT HOUSE, both horror movies, also got Fs). Cinemascore calculates their grades by surveying American moviegoers on opening night. The same American moviegoers who awarded an A Cinemascore to ALEX CROSS and TRANSFORMERS: DARK OF THE MOON.
I just saw KILLING THEM SOFTLY, and though I didn't love it, I'd give an A to Brad Pitt's final lines of dialogue, and that's gotta be worth something.
Other movies that got an F from Cinemascore? Steven Soderbergh's SOLARIS, Richard Kelly's THE BOX, and William Friedkin's BUG. And let's run down a list of movies that got a C+ or lower: DRIVE, HANNA, LET ME IN, HIGH FIDELTY, THE ROYAL TENENBAUMS, WONDER BOYS, and SHUTTER ISLAND.
Oh, and BOOGIE NIGHTS, which got a C.
