6.2 on IMDB... Are you kidding me?


I almost didn't rent this movie cause of the low rating... But just watched it and... WOWWWW, what a great movie!! Intense, suspense, drama, action has it all! so cool. Come on people, this is worth at least a 7.5... Any ideas, why the low rating?

it just wasn't very good and was predictable throughout...Carrey should stick to comedies - he is just not very convincing in thrillers

To much nonsense about 23 pisses people up. Yes we understand he's crazy, still the 23 thing is stupid.

Change the title, mention 23 less and the movie an 8.

i'm with the ppl saying that 6.2 is good for this movie, it should've been like 5.5 or less

I would give this a 7-7+. It's a very decent movie for its genre, i find 6.2 pretty low too.

Absolutely right !! I completely agree with you. Infact I too was discouraged beforehand when I saw it got only 8% on rotten tomatoes. CAN U BELIEVE IT ? ONLY 8/100 !! But I went ahead and watched the film. It's really AWESOME !! I don't know why it was such a big flop in US and why have people given it so low ratings.It was a wonderful movie with all aspects of a crime thriller.

I thought it was just awful but that is just like my opinion man.

to me it is one of those movies which are under the 7 rating but is good and even comparable to 7+ rating movies. it was a good flick with some great acting by jim carrey and i never get bored for even 1 minute. it keeps busy the viewer and keeping him to think about what will happen next. Good experience for me. I rated it 8 (7 for movie + extra 1 for jim carrey :) ).
