7.8?!?! ha ha ha...bloody funny...Lost my faith on IMDB. - Lucky Number Slevin (2006) Discussion

[–] Crazyonyou 16 years ago

i lost my faith on IMDB.

Just because you disagree with the vote on one film? Ever thought you just have a differing opinion.

reply

[–] thefirstpbj 16 years ago

I just watched it for the first time and really enjoyed it, clever and sure I saw some of the plotlines I didn't see them all. I thought all the actors were well chosen and played.
Solid 9/10.

Maybe some people don't have the obvious expertise you have with movies and have the seriousness that you do when watching a 2hour flick that they enjoyed. Who cares what the rating is man, I know it's not something I would worry about.

Why do you thin a troll would care? Douchebags like this just want to get rise out of you. So do what I just did and place this worthless twat on ignore.

I lsot my faith long ago on IMDB. Not because they rate too high, but otherwise, they rate too low.

"they rate too low"!!!
If you see ratings in rottentomatoes.com you will die in panic, for sure.

reply

[–] nochii 16 years ago

The rating is actually 8,4 or 84% on rottentomatoes, if you check the scores by the average user.

And i dont visit torrentomatoes.com
I know they rate movies low, and i let them, but imdb rate a lot of movies too low as well.

I loved it !

it was very entetaining and fun

there are alot of movies here that ,in my opinion, were very overrated, but that doesnt mean I lost my faith on imdb because i do believe that each one of us has his own view

reply

[–] jackkiller21 16 years ago

Come on guys!!.I guessed the climax within the first 1/2 an hour.And all the scenes in this movie is as expected.HOW COME ITS ENTERTAINING IF U CAN GUESS THE WHOLE STORY.?!?!?

[–] mtwideen 16 years ago

First of all, some of us don't try to figure out the ending. When I watch a movie like this, I turn of my brain and don't think about it. I just watch the movie and enjoy. So I didn't guess the ending right away, cause I wasn't trying.

Second of all, the dialogue was great. Very fast paced and witty. The character were fun characters and the story was well told. Those are just a few reasons I like the movie.

Hope that helps.

[–] jackkiller21 16 years ago

Ofcourse it deserves 10/10 if you turn off your brain as you say, unfortunately my brain cells are active.

reply

[–] mtwideen 16 years ago

good for you?

reply

[–] jackkiller21 16 years ago

Not Sure. :-)

reply

[–] coindudej2 13 years ago

So, if you have active brain cells, you can't rate this a 10/10? That sounds a tad judgmental of you. People have their own opinions, and not all of them agree with you.

aren't the ratings determined by votes? If so, you can hardly blame IMDB for that.

reply

[–] sublimejoint 15 years ago

That's exactly what I do when watching a movie. Who wants to sit there and try to figure out the movie before it happens? Why don't you let the person tell the story? I think anyone can figure out any ending to a movie if they try, so why bother? I believe if you let the story come to you, you'll have a much better time when watching a movie. I think a lot of people like to hate things because they are truly jealous of great things people do. If it's one thing you can count on, someone will always be there to try and drag down someone else.

This was a good movie. Well acted, well directed, and a great story. It deserves every bit of its 7.8 rating.

8/10

Someone said they turn off their brain when watching this? No, you turn off your brain for G.I. Joe. This is on the same caliber as Guy Ritchie films to me. The sub-par story is vastly over shadowed by brilliant dialogue, the amazing camerawork carries you through the entire ride, plus you get to watch a slew of amazing actors do their thing.

I mean he almost seemed to play along with the mistaken identity, despite getting the crap kicked out of him.

Yes, that was the point, his plan was paramount, getting beaten up was just a minor inconvenience to him.

You don't know anything about good movies. And if you think that liking this flimsy, flouncy piece of trash written by some hack, makes you a man, that's the most hilarious thing I've read all week.

You don't know anything about arguing. if you're going to state a point in which you are the minority, you reply with reasoning on believing so. Lucky number slevin is a pretty good film and i'd love to hear your argument on why you think we, the people that like this film, know nothing about good movies. Provide the argument and i will tell you why this film is good.

Hello iamjamesmix...From the first scene i guessed the movie in the right direction,which made me irritating in the climax.Especially when Josh Hartnett says to some 2 black guys that"im not the guy u r searching for",i was pretty much sure that he is the guy.And Bruce is such a joker in this movie,praising himself as the best killer.WHAT A CRAP!!!!

reply

[–] Brick_Frog 16 years ago

While guessing the film's direction can ruin a movie experience it doesn't mean it is a bad film, unless it is all too obvious for the majority of viewers (which isn't the case with this one). Sure that sucks and makes the film somewhat of a letdown, but that aspect only really holds on to that one person.

"Especially when Josh Hartnett says to some 2 black guys that"im not the guy u r searching for",i was pretty much sure that he is the guy."

When he's saying that he's not the guy they are looking for he's not lying...he isn't the guy. so you didn't guess that right...

"And Bruce is such a joker in this movie,praising himself as the best killer."

I don't recall Willis himself ever praising how good of a killer he was but i know for sure that it is insinuated by others throughout the film. What's wrong with Willis being a good hitman? he's done a lot of action films that involve him killing others. This role is along the lines of Bruce Willis...i don't know what your trying to get at there.

The movie has good acting with a list of high class actors, nothing wrong with the directing but nothing great about it either, the script was good with great dialogue and characters as well as keeping the viewer interested throughout with no scenes that drag out...it is a good film and a fun watch. I don't think i'd give it quite a 7.8...7.4 or 7.5 would be my rating.

[–] franchisee 16 years ago

I agree with iamjamesmix, but obviously some people are going to differ. If no one disliked this movie, it would have a 9 or a 10. Any movie can be ruined by a ruining ending. Whether you predict it or someone else did.

I was watching The Usual Suspects with my buddy and he called out the ending half way through (who was Kaiser Soze) and it made sense to me and that completely ruined the ending.

Yeah the usual suspects i kinda figured it was spacey (although i wasn't 100% sure) but what really got me is that he made it all up which i thoroughly enjoyed!

It seems that most of the snobby, elitist, douchebags that say things like this never have any ratings in their profile (don't want to be ridiculed).

Show us your supreme good taste. What movies do YOU consider good?
