As far as critics' opinions of the Depp/DS film go, certainly a majority of critics didn't love it - but then, a majority didn't hate it either. As I've said before, the critics' opinions were pretty split with some liking much of the film and some not liking much of the film. But even within those reviews, those who liked much of the film had aspects they disliked, and those not liking much of the film had aspects they praised. There is a Web site that averages the critical opinions of films based on the reviews of the major critics, and according to that site, the Depp/DS film averaged 3.5 stars out of 5, which, while split, leans it somewhat more to the positive than to the negative (and even their audience response gives it 3.2 out of 5, which is also somewhat more to the positive than to the negative). So, anyone who says the majority of critics disliked the film is fooling him/herself as much as anyone who thinks the majority of critics liked the film is.
