Much has been said about him16d0 always giving bad reviews to certain people eg Michael Bay, Danny Dyer etc. But has no one noticed that they are certain people he never gives bad reviews to, Jennifer Lawrence and Robert Pattinson to name just 2 examples.

Ahhh, in fairness to Mark - he has said that Michael Bay has made two decent films : Bad Boys and The Rock. He likes them. Also, with Danny Dyer - he said that he saw him in a Harold Pinter stage show and he liked him in that. Plus, remember when he was always giving Guy Richie a kicking - then he liked Sherlock Holmes. So - Mark does give people a chance.

I have just seen his worst ten of 2015, for one selection, Survivor he was glad Emma Thompson had dropped out of it as it would save him from saying something bad about her. Therefore reinforcing my previous point.

I wonder what he thinks of the film "Junior" with Emma Thompson and Arnie in it? That's terrible. If he likes it - then he could be in trouble.
