10 out of 10. Paddy Cheyvesky wrote the script, everybody in the cast was superb, what else do you want in a movie?

Are you the kind of person who gives Stallone, Schwarznegger and Sandler movies high ratings? Is Titanic or Napoleon Dynamite more to your liking? Trouble is, the A&R and marketing people in Hollywood listen to people who believe movies like "The Hospital" are mediocre ....... and that's why they don't really make intelligent movies for adults anymore.

1. Just because Paddy Chayefsky wrote it, doesn't automatically give it a positive score. (And you could have at least spelled his name right).

2. I have given Rocky, Terminator I&II, True Lies, Copland etc posive scores.

3. Titanic is a good movie.

4. I don't think this movie deserves anything higher than a 7.

Of course these are opinions, but I'm not going to attack the opinions of others.

I'm arriving at a 6 out of 10 too. Little too low on the comedy part, way too high on depressing the sh!t out of the viewer (talking as someone who knows a thing or two about depression..).

It's a terrific, angry, acerbic script given to an incompetent director. The picture survives on a constant stream of great lines and powerhouse performances. Despite the lousy aesthetics its gotta be at least a 7/10+

Like with all dark comedies, your either all in or really standn't it. Someone mentioned "Clockwork Orange" earlier, I couldn't get into that one at all. No knock on it, I just didn't enjoy it. BTW, I think this movie is perfect so I gave it a 10/10.

I gave it a 7. I'd never seen it before so this was my first watching. I'd seen Scott in a few things like the Hustler but wow! George C Scott was an incredible actor!!!! He really blew me away! The movie itself had some brilliant moments but was a bit uneven. The romance kind of came out of nowhere. The ending got kind of wacky which didn't fit with the earlier parts. Very good film though with great performances!

I’d give it a 7.5
