Doesn't that seem like a much higher rating than it deserves. I'm not saying its a bad film, its a lot of fun. But an 8.1? Come on!? They're are so many better films with lower ratings. How does this make it into the top 250?
shareamount of people voting...
shareSure, there's better films with much lower ratings than this one. However, I think this film's rating is justified; apart from being a whole lot of fun, I would say it delivers on every level. And more importantly, it's undeniably one of those movies that's universally pleasing.
You want something corny? You got it!
No kidding. One of my personal favorites, and everyone else I know at least likes it.
shareI saw your subject line, and I actually expected you to claim it's too low. Opinions differ, apparently.
shareYou happy now?
shareWhat does an IMDB rating mean, after all? What is a good movie? Ask 100 people and you will get 21 different answers. 20 people will tell you their personal favorite while 80 will tell you what their pals liked and so they liked it, too.
And another thing is - most people vote very high for a movie they have seen recently and liked. They vote 10 because they had a good time and everyone (they know) likes it, so hey. They don't weigh the movie against other movies, don't think about score, camera, plot - they just say: It was SO AWESOME, so it's a ten.
That's why I ignore movies that sky rocket upon release and make everyone tell me: you must see this, everyone is seeing it, it must be great!
