A broad term, but what is entertaining to some may not be entertaining to others. Star power. Everyone who has seen a lot of filmsfollows his favorite star and is ready to see any movie with his/her participation totally disregarding the content of that particular movie. Timing, it sounds cliché, but timing is everything.
