This film deserves a higher rating


I can't believe this film only has a 3.6 rating. Granted it isn't the most original film ever but I think too many people on IMDB are rating this film on the basis that it is trying to be a cinematic classic. It's trying to be a light hearted immature humour film that you can and easily watch with your friends while having a few beers and for me it works really well at doing this. I gave it an 8.

I can't believe this film has as much as a 3.6 rating. I gave it a 2.

Black people run fast, but IMDB ratings run even faster!

Look at all black movies on here, The highest one I can think of is The Color Purple with a whopping 7.6/10.....WTF, now lets look at a stupid white movie like Superbad that movie got 7.8/10. See my point?

This movie deserves a 7 or an 8. It is definitely underrated and usually if a critic doesn't like it, it's good. They seem to only like stuff that is in a foreign language or something "deep." This is just a light hearted enjoyable movie and there's nothing wrong with that. Can I get an Amen?!

I thought it warranted a 6.5

Some parts were downright hilarious, such as every part with Terry Crews.

I do admit, some parts were boring and unfunny, but every movie is bound to have it's low point.


I see so many people here reviewing so immature and childish, it's not even funny.

If you say: "OMG this is the worst movie ever. If you watch it you're a moron."

YOU are the moron.

If you write an intelligent, thoughtful review on the movie, then people won't take you for a jackass.

this movie deserved at least like 5 or 6. I mean its pretty much the same story as Paul Blart, the other movie with Seth rogen as a mail cop, and all those movie. plus its really funny cause it involves a big 800pounds whale beating up a poor slick dude

I'd give it a 7

I know right!
I'd give it a 8 also.
This movie is hilarious.

yeah defo. I gave it a 9. Thought it was hilarious, could stop laughing throughout.

This movie is pure gold. There are not many comedies that can make me laugh, but Norbit is one of them.

I feel pity for all the fat people that gave it 1/10. Although the movie is offensive, everygbody should understand that we live in offensive world and just let our sense of humor free.

reply

It does, it was funnier than many other so called comedies.


Its that man again!!
