That's the mindset you have to have if your going to see it.

Normally, I like to have a decent plot, great character development and all that jazz. But for this movie I allowed myself to "dumb" my taste in movies down a bit, and it was much more enjoyable like that.

I knew a lot of it was bad, and corny but I accepted it and moved on. Most movies you absorb to get the deep themes and plot lines. Poseidon, you just watch without searching into it.
