Saying a movie has flaws, isn't a good review. A good review will judge what the movie intended to accomplish and judge whether or not it was successful or not.
For example, John Carter was a very ambitious film, but it failed in accomplishing a coherant story because the main character is just running around doing things, there seems to be a lack of emotional connection, the story changes drastically in tone from act to act.
I say that just for example, not to start a John Carter debate, if you like the film. But just using it as a reference of a film that didn't sit too well with the general audience.
There are also films that I think are terrible, but end up making a crap-ton of cash (see Transformers).
