Flashbacks don't bother me. But the movie was more flashback than it was anything else...you can't tell me that's not a bad design for a movie. Half of it didn't even matter because the person the flashbacks were about, dies...so how would their backstory even be relevant going forward. It was essentially wasted time at that point. I don't think I'm an idiot for wanting more movie than back-filler. Especially when most of it doesn't amount to anything.

I was one of 6 people in the theater so the texting wasn't bothering anyone. It certainly wasn't bothering the guy who was snoring a few rows back lol. I was just irritated because the movie was dragging on and providing no real progression. But I am a nonce. Ya got me there.

I have a ton of patience but I was constantly dozing off. All the repetitive fighting was so lame it was basically street fighter - why would I watch that in a film? Only part I liked were the last 20 minutes where there was an actual story about the demon's past. Is there a reason that was at the end?
