7,9? The society makes me sick.


I really cannot understand why so many people hate this movie. It's unique, interesting, well-written, a true masterpiece in my eyes. I enjoyed every minute of it. I know everyone's taste differs, but I'd rate this move among the elites, would give at least a 8,4 rating. Do people just rate it down because it won Best picture and not freaking Boyhood or The imitation game?

How is 7.9 a sign of people hating this movie? And why does it make you sick? Some people thought Boyhood and The Imitation Game were great. Should they be "sick" because you don't agree with them on those films?

"Birdman" is brilliant on many levels, but it left me a little cold. If you step back a bit from this film, you can at least understand that others might think the same. Btw. I hate to tell you this, but that 7.9 will be a 7.4 by next year.

It is a fact many people don't understand how good the movie is. I say this talking with some people who get bored or sleep on the movie.

My conclusion is not everyone really likes to watch movies, I mean it. This movie is a acting masterpiece, but for me acting masterpiece is not enough for 10/10, so I gave 8 out of 10.

This movie was absolutely sensational. The acting, the soundtrack, the artistry, the gorgeous shots of New York....very worthy of it's Best Picture Oscar win and I agree with you, it's a masterpiece!!!!

I absolutely agree that "Birdman" was a very interesting, authentic and engaging movie with layered and very interesting characters and a clever, appealing story. Its one of the best art movies out there and I am also convinced it is underrated. I get it may not be everyones taste, but some people should differentiate a bit more and appreciate at least the great performances, cinematography and originality of the movie.
The rating should definitely be more than 8 if not 8,5.

The original post is dumb. A 7.9 is almost in the top 250 list, so to say that rating means "people hate it" is crazy.

Stopped it half hour in, 1/10.

7.8 now, it will probably drop well below that by next year. sorry its not that good a film you thought it was :(

7.9 is NOT the score of a movie that is 'hated'... Just a couple of degrees higher and you're in Top 250 territory... It may not have been rated as highly as YOU wanted it to be, but it still has a very respectable rating on IMDB, so please get some perspective.

I agree with your opinion on the movie, but are you really this upset that the rating is 0.5 lower than you want it to be?

On IMDB of all places?

You seriously need to get your priorities sorted.
