The Fast and the Furious has begun to boil itself down to fit into the "high budget, low consideration" tier of movies like Transformers. It's easy to turn more out because the premise isn't particularly complex. Buy a car, blow it up, make money. Critics agree, by the way, these movies are way overrated.

Critics tend to have a field day on movies that rely on their star-power to drive the narrative. However, Ocean's Eleven seemed to slip through the cracks, so to speak. Even with a cast of George Clooney, Matt Damon, Brad Pitt, Don Cheadle, and Julia Roberts, Ocean's Eleven lacked substance in the storyline department.

  • Frank Sinatra was offered the lead role in Die Hard.
