Only 7.1??!!!!

I can't understand why this film hasn't got a higher rating than 7.1? The acting from the five guys is amazing, with Simon Pegg's performance being the outstanding one. The fight scenes are well choreographed and refreshingly varied and thoughtful. Most importantly for a comedy, it's outrageously funny. The writing is absolutely genius and it may well be the best written film of the trilogy, with Hot Fuzz being the best film.

It should be rated much higher than 7.1.

That moment you realize...

...that real steel has a better rating than this

Just discovered the Alan Partridge film has only got 7.1 too. IMDb clearly does not understand the pure gold of British comedy...

Yeah I'm a little shocked as well considering the high Rotten Tomato and Metascores...

I'm surprised it got as much as 7 to be honest. Was like an episode of Doctor Who ffs

Couldn't have said it better myself. Being a fan of both Doctor Who and Simon & Nick's movies however, I still felt dissapointed by this movie.
Wasn't that bad but I expected better.

A 7 out of 10 is a good score. I don't understand why brats these days think everything is either a 1 or a 10.

[–] imdstuf 11 years ago

I only gave it a 6. I would have gave it a 7, but thought the ending was not that good.

How come you didn't like the ending? I thought the ending in this was the best out of all three films in the trilogy. They could of made a whole other film with the last 10 minutes or so.

Because the first two were way better, funnier, wittier and more interesting.

My top 100:

thats pretty subjective since I felt like the writing was better in this then Shaun of the Dead. So many of the jokes require a certain level of patience since they take time to payoff. That's why these films require multiple viewings to fully appreciate everything they offer.

Shaun of the dead and especially Hot Fuzz are way better than this flick. I gave it a 5.

It's a broad comedy that really doesn't rise much above the juvenile. I got a handful of laugh out loud moments but by definition, this sort of pastiche parody is going to cover a LOT of familiar ground.

It just isn't that clever. If it worked for you, great. Why worry about what other people think?

I just thought it wasn't quite as good as Shaun of the Dead or Hot Fuzz. Hot Fuzz being my favorite of the 3. Just watched this again last night and it is still pretty good though.

7 is not a low score. This movie deserves a 7 or an 8.

Boycott movies that involve real animal violence! (and their directors too)
