Such a low rating!?

Sorry heisenberg, a bit late late to your party but hear, hear! Whenever I click on to a title on IMDB I like to guess the rating and I must modestly say I'm usually pretty accurate. I was thinking to myself this would be a solid 7.5 or maybe even higher, so was very surprised to see it lower than this. I agree with you, the film had a sweet script and tone, good acting and because it was based on the classic Cyrano tale a certain historical élan that many modern rom-coms are lacking.

I will vote it a solid '8'!

This was just on TV here in Hungary (but obviously I have already seen it like a dozen times before) so I came here to look up a couple of actors and facts and I was stunned by the rating. I expected 7.0 or anything above, maybe 6.9 was my worst case scenario. I voted 8, and this movie definitely deserves a solid 8. You can call it 4 out of 5 stars, or 3.5 out of 4 (like Ebert gave it back then), whatever, it's a comedy classic.

It's one of my absolute favorite movies and I watch it any time I can find it. It's not deep or important, it's just nice and fun. I gave it an 8.
