Half of the ppl who wrote the user reviews gives the movie perfect scores, and the other gives it a single star. Almost NO 5-6 star scores... This is really strange. I mean - how lousy must a movie be for so many ppl to give it a score of 1? And how come that so many ppl have given it a perfect 10?
shareI think it's safe to say the people involved with the film were being naughty.
I gave it a 6 ;)
share Well, I really liked the movie and I'm a little bit of a movie freak, I watch tones of movies.
I give this movie a 9, because the beginning was a little slow to captivate me, but the last half was very good, after the scene in the hotel, where the kid was supposed to be. After that, the movie was totally unpredictable and captivating and stirred emotions inside me. (That's what any good movie should do, isn't it?)
I also liked the directing on the bits showing simultaneously what Neil and Judy were doing, the camera switching back and forth, but the accelerated and shacking camera images from the car, when Tom was "burning" the money, kind of dazzled me instead of adding to the tension.
Anyhow, all in all was quite a good movie, so for my part, it deserves a 9.
I guess this is a "love it or hate it" kind of movie, hence, the strange ratings!
i gave it a 9. It was really good.
I Can't Wait For The Dark Knight!
I just watched this. It was mediocre at best, tried too hard and just turned out to be people behaving in ways that no one in real life would behave. There was no point to the film. It could have ended in dozens of ways, and it seems they just picked one at random.

Because, like the King Kong 'reimagining', 'Cloverfield', and a lot of others, it's a 'love-it-or-hate-it' movie, VERY little in-between. Some are just like that, and it seems to be going more and more that way. I personally thought it was totally unbelieveable and idiotic. Most films any more aren't remembered after a year anyway, other than by diehard fanboys.
shareyes, but even if you hate a movie you have to be reasonable. I gave this movie a 5...I really didn't like it, but it's still an average thriller. Seldom should films be given a score below 3, let alone 1.
Hey BaDHaBiTt,
I think the reason is the following:
If you really like a film (say 9 or 10) then you are going to vote for it.
If you really don't like a film (say 1 or 2) then you are going to vote for it.
This is just because if you have a strong opinion about something (either way - positive or negative) then you will probably want your views to be heard.
