Most of the people who are scoffing and wagging their fingers here haven't seen the movie, so they really have nothing valid to say about how good or bad it is. All that disgust is really about the cultural phenomenon surrounding it, and maybe the fact that other people are having a good time in ways that they look down on or don't understand.
I was pleasantly surprised by the movie -- maybe due to low expectations -- and seeing it with a theatre full of wound-up people was tremendous fun. Probably more fun that hunching over a computer complaining about other people's fun.
