Maan, what's with the rating ?


I watched this on tv last night and I liked it, and I come on imdb and see a rating of 2.6.
Gosh there must be some very smart people on imdb, not digging parodies and stuff.

It's true i would have changed a few things, but i don't see how this is a 2.6 movie when there are movies with much higher scores of a much much lesser entertainment value.


And i guess the movie was supposed to be 'dumb', it's like abstract art or something xd

Agreed, I saw it on television, it was meant to entertain, not be a cohesive work-of-art, and most of the fun coming from this movie came from seeing the actors have fun with their roles, knowing not to take anything seriously it was a joke played on themselves that the audience could enjoy too.

i love spoof movies, but this was a pile of *beep* dripping with cat urine

I guess people cannot take a joke. They like airplane, but not this? Really unbelievable

reply

That's because Airplane was genuinely funny and appealed to a wide range of people.

Stop bumping polls. It's not big. It's not clever!

There are a ton of parodies with good and great ratings on IMDb. This movie actually just sucks.

reply

I like parodies. Actually I LOVE parodies. Spaceballs is one of my favorite movies ever. However, this movie is not a parody. It a a film full of retarded, unclever references to random movies and pop culture that don't make sense and dumb shot-for-shot recreations of scenes that are trying to be funny but aren't funny at all.

reply

In short, this is not exactly a film, at all.

And how this travesty actually beat 'Rambo' in box office is still beyond me.

reply

I agree with you. Its rating is completely wrong. It's far too high!

Stop bumping polls. It's not big. It's not clever!

Its a spoof comedy, its supposed to be dumb. I think its hilarious. I crack up every time I see it.
