You can go on endlessly poking holes, but that just takes the fun out of it.
I enjoy poking and scratching at the surface of things. It’s fun, too. :)
A good level of suspense of disbelief is always needed to enjoy those stories
Agreed. All I need is a good, well played and emotionally touching story. Any movie is just a stage play with patterns like a tension arc, stereotypes and plot devices. Movies are not the reality. But for me there must be some degree of plausibility or scurrility or both. Usually when the movie is boring, emotionally uninvolving or annoying, I start to notice the plot holes and start digging.
And then there are the experts in their field, having a hard time. Police men, pathologists, IT people, who call the director’s bullshit. Movie makers who notice and are distracted by patterns and techniques used in the movie. But other people don’t mind.
