Top 1000 voters give this a 6.7........


...shows the only thing they're "tops" in, is stupidity.


I'd really like someone who gave this film anything less than an 9 to actually give a valid reason to rating it as such.

And if I were voting I would give it a perfect 10!
This movie is like Mona Lisa - can chose itself who will like it and who will not!
Am I right?

Bravooooooo my friend dairypack12!!!

reply

who are these top 1000 voters?
i heard their rating is most important in imdb rating system...
But it seems they are as stupid as Lord of the rings demons!!!
6.7?To Mirror?the worst thing ive ever seen on imdb!!!

reply

as i think they should be older people..and maybe they are remembering cold war againist USSR when voting.

reply

If I had to vote right now i'd probably give it a 5 or 6 because I don't understand the film....yet. I've only seen it once and I obviously need to get my head round structuring my experience before I give it a score.

Even without feeling like I understand the film, there are some absolutely incredible scenes.

Sometimes my vote matches that of Top 1000 reviewers; sometimes it doesn't. That's it. Theirs doesn't have any more credibility in my eyes than the normal average vote.

reply

Any rate less than 10 for this masterpiece would be a big big Mistake!!!

reply

why should anyone care about ratings given to any film on any stupid website?

reply

yes, I also didn't really understand this film properly, it is beautiful but my mind wandered a lot and by the end I was lost. Perhaps I will watch it again. I really enjoyed Stalker, Ivan's Childhood and Andrei Rublev but I found Mirror tough going. I think complexity increases the chance of failure, hence the rating.

reply

I agree entirely, I gave it a 9, and even then I felt it could go to a 10 on another occasion. It is absolutely beautiful, one of Tarkovsky's most poetic films.

Last film seen: The Mirror 9/10

reply

Agreed. Just saw it for the third time, ravished again and again. The section from the wind, the oil lamp falling and the storm blowing the sheets and the rain out of the trees up to the colour sequence ending with the mirror glowing in coals nas so many absolutely breath taking shots and the film glows. Tarkovsky and the cinematographers use of light, shade, exposure and framing, as well as movement is utterly exquisite.

10+++++. An absolute masterpiece, a work of art. Among my top ten films and surely must be around there for anyone with eyes to see and a mind that is sensitive and open.

reply

Most Top 1000 reviewers probably watch run-of-the-mill pop corn movies, so they wouldn't enjoy a piece of art like Mirror is.

This film is easily one of the best 10 films ever made. Failing to realize this about such great films is missing out on life itself.

It's a masterpiece, and I don't use that word for just any good film. 10/10 for me.

Solyaris by Andrei Tarkovsky - 9/10

The IMDB voting system is horrendously flawed. Pay no attention to it.

Last film seen: Robert Bresson's Pickpocket - Brilliant!
