IMDB raters are so biased against female-centric movie

While im not gonna defend this flick, i do think there isa bias by movie watchers and critics against female centered films, especially against romance movies.

Even movie theaters give very little space in their schedules for Rom Coms, Nicholas sparks or any film which is more targeted to female audiences. Everytime i go to the theaters something like Iron mas like ten different choices of hours you can see it while something like Mothers day was only at very hours.


Its not an IMDB bias against fifty shades but every year there is only one romance movie released against 10 action flicks, i don't mind it that much since i do love a good action flick its my second favorite genre after romance but very few of my girls like action so because of them every year i visit lesss and less the movie theaters.


Just one if them came with me to see Spectre which i was dying to see and loved it by the way. But there are less movies targeted for women every year. Its like movie studios don't care for female audiences and critics support them giving them bad reviews.

I'm a female poster and I'm sorry, but this movie is just not good. If anything, 4.1 is high and it was UP voted by fans. I think it deserves no more than a 2. I gave it a 1. I read the book and it wasn't good source material, therefore the movie didn't have much of a chance.

I am Beautiful.. no matter what they say...

74,000 females gave this an average rating of 5/10.

Maybe you should click on the rating info to see the difference between female and male ratings. Females rated this around 5, higher than the average but still not great. Guess many of them aren't keen on seeing a woman being abused (I am male and not planning to see film).

For starters a movie with a laughable script and horrible dialogue is not a good start to the defense that this movie should be rated higher than a 4 . Just because a director is competent enough to film a script doesn't make it great either or the actors acting. In fact the main actors have no chemistry, the main actress is dull and the main actor can't stop his accent slipping . The director brings nothing interesting or new to the film. Scenes just happen and characters move like chess pieces instead of real people . It's a bad book set up for cheap sexual desires and all of that comes out full force in film form.

As for ghostbusters , it's even more so . It's a comedy which is trying to reboot a beloved comedy , by dropping humor , likable characters , all while adding the beloved actors from the original in terrible cameos . It adds nothing interesting or new , making one question why it was rebooting and not continuing the series in the first place. It's very aware that the film edited out big chunks of plot which ends up making some scenes confusing . I've never seen so many great comedians be not funny like this film,

I can only speak for myself , but I went to see ghostbusters in the theater with high hopes , I also picked up the 50 shades of grey book and gave it a chance .... ghostbusters was a let down (I'd give it a 6 or 5) , but 50 shades of grey is a piece of trash that I feel sets all the things women say their against back 20 years. Personally , it's not a man vs women thing , not liking these two , it's a taste of seeing what's good and what's bad. Are there *beep* who are more sexist ? Of course . But there are women just like this . You know how many women who have said they wouldn't watch science fiction or super hero films to me while I was growing up because it was to nerdy or men things ? That's just as ignorant. Bad films are just bad films .

It's true that female-centric movies are targeted by IMDB users, but it's even worse for black films. Jesus, the disparity between Rottentomatoes critics and IMDb users is a little boggling sometimes.

This is very peculiar. I've never seen a box office block buster like this have such a low IMDB rating.
