wow it was 7.8 in 2009 too?? I must say I was also shocked to see it anything over than 7. It was a little better than expected for a movie like this, but 7 absolute MAX. 7.8 must be a mistake

reply

This movie was absolute POO, FACT.

reply

Yeah, wasn't even thinking about this movie. it was in my recommendations. A 7.8 is ridiculous for this movie. Sure it was good but it deserves a 7 at best.

reply

Exactly my point.

reply

Exactly.

Came here to post exactly this. Absolute POO.

Very lousy movie. a 5/10 would be too much.

reply

I thought it was pretty entertaining because I loved the cast and witty dialogue. The only reason I didn't rate it higher than an 8 was because of the crappy third act. Still, everything leading up to it was pretty fun for me.

reply

Excuse me sir, but what would justify a 6 stars rating?
Was there bad direction? Was there lack of style in the cinematography? Was there bad acting or inadequate character development? Was a central theme missing and did the plot remain unresolved?
I believe the 7.8 rating is only fair for such a well-crafted and entertaining movie.

reply

Because the plot was bloody terrible.

Please forgive my immature 13 year old self who found this movie so satisfying that it has become virtually impossible for me to recognize any flaws now that I'm older. I still wear those rose-coloured glasses when I watch this movie and I can't help it. Damned childhood memories.

Ignored.

LOL :D

I'm not here to knock the movie, its wasn't terrible, but it sure required a heavy amount of suspending disbelief. The Forest Gump Meets Shaft bodyguards, being able to kill someone without notice in an airport, but mostly the chatty teen dialogue that would have got Slevin stuffed in a trunk in the first half of the movie. "What do you think I'm thinking about what you thought I was thinking about...."

The movie magic was a little strong. JackKiller21: I think I'll use some of your reviews as a screening tool for a while, and see if I can avoid some of the fluff.
