    You can return a movie, but only if it doesn't function as a movie. You don't, for instance, have a legal right to return a cheese sandwich after discovering that you don't actually like cheese. Though you can if the sandwich is off, i.e not fit for purpose. It's the same with movies. Your preferences don't give you legal grounds for a refund if the item in question is fit for purpose.

    Oh man... just when I think that my opinion of humanity could not get any lower...
    The Islamic world is in crisis with the publication of Salman Rushdie's Satanic Verses. Rushdie wants Pakistan, the stronghold of Islam, to fall. Determined to foil his plans are a trio of brothers who form a holy army to destroy Rushdie. Rushdie plans to drive the final nails into the coffin of Islam by opening a new chain of Casino's and Disco's spreading contemptable vice and debauchery. Mustafa Qureshi, hen pecked to death by his demented wife, decides to call it a day with his day job at the Police station and induct his unemployed brothers to create a Mujahid (God's soldiers) trio whose sole aim is to seek out and destroy the despised Salman Rushdie before he manages to destory all virtue and decency on the planet.​

    Maybe I'm jaded cause I liked the horses...
    but I've seen worse uses of time (including reading anything the OP posts, an error I shan't repeat).

    To feel better about Hidalgo...
    ...watch "Ghost Rock"... bad even when compared to other movies starring Gary Busey (and that's a tall hurdle). Couldn't tear myself away for the same reason people gape at car crashes. Until then I thought the worst western of all time was the star studded (Gene Hackman, Sharon Stone, Russell Crow, L DiCaprio, et al) stinker "The Quick and the Dead". Compared to either, Hidalgo is a cinematic tour de force.

    Most people who return a sandwich usually lie about the problem. The taste is off or something. Even when I worked at Arby's as a chap we had to return everything no matter the reason at our store. Legally you are right, but many trailers seem to just be pure bs and when you see the movie you know you got ripped off.

    The two last movies I ever rented before starting to just watch free movies on tv were two horror movies. One was paranormal activity which is about a giant chicken that wants revenge on Kernal, but gets the wrong address, so he attacks a couple by mistake.

    The other movie was about plants killing people... It was super weird. Really had no plot and the whole time you are wondering why they don't just go to the Ocean.

    I think I might have seen disturbia before or after that time, but that was a decent movie. Shia Lebouf is a decent actor nothing against him.

    Nothing wrong with stealing other's people's content like movies/music/websites if you intend to share it with others around the world, nothing wrong with making a little money off it either. Power to the Pirates :)

    Wheres your facts and argument behind this?

    It's neat how they are getting political power now. Need to focus on opening up power to free speech. Never forget bradley manning.

    Yeah, lets all celebrate a traitor.

    You are pretty much a douche in all your posts and something about you really makes me dislike you.

    What? You say it's justified to just kill people out of random?

    You really don't have any concept of the meaning of the word "random", do you?

    Does it matter if I know what random is or isn't by your definition? I don't believe in killing someone.
