In fact, one critic called it the single worst movie of 2017 and thats accounting forThe Emoji Movie.

But Ayer seems to consider that distinction a point of pride.

This is going on my fridge, Ayer tweeted to Ehrlich.

Highest compliment is a strong reaction either way.

This is a fking epic review.

Its a big fun movie.

you could sure string words together Mr. [Ehrlich].

Id love to read any script youve written.

Youre a good man, Mr. Ayer.

Ill be waiting with fresh eyes for whatever comes next, Ehrlich wrote.

Ayer responded, I really appreciate that.

Every movie is a labor of love for me.

Ive never chased the audience, and I know my work can be polarizing.

Ive lived a crazy love [sic] and I guess my movies reflect that.

Though, there were some who deemed it the best original Netflix movie to date.

Ayers last film,Suicide Squad, alsosuffered from negative reviews andhe responded to those, as well.

I took inspiration from the insanity of the original comics.

Making a movie is a journey, not a straight line.

I learned so much.

Brightwill hit theaters and Netflix on Dec. 22.

According toBloomberg, a sequel has already been ordered.
