There are VERY FEW good hollywood movies. In fact I'd wager there are virtually nil good movies (nowadays). Violence in Hollywood is non-existent for fear of lack of return on investments. Comedy is bested by stand-up. Drama is relegated to chick flick status. Cartoons and CGI are by virtue of either culture or marketting a concept only children appreciate.
I watch movies in the theater/cinema only if I know it will be worth my money, and they are few and far between. I'll give new franchaises a chance -- my only exception to the 'rule'.
