How?!?!!

More people voted it 8/10 or higher.

People are morons.

I gotta say what I do like with this film is that it doesn’t rely on profanity for comic relief. I always appreciate that. However, it’s incredibly hard for these types of films to reach an 8, even on IMDb. So I wonder why it did? Is it the message? The nostalgia?

Should be higher. 10/10.

I've never known anyone dislike it. Congratulations, you're special. And have very poor taste in films.

It is funny (to me and many others hence the high rating) but the reason for the high rating is mostly due to the message that the movie conveys. It's about a guy who is a miserable, good for nothing, lowlife who looks down upon everyone and everything that he encounters. He becomes stuck in a neverevending cycle of (what would appear to be) hell, and for a long time he stays the same jerk that he always was, but slowly he learns to care for other people, and changes who he is. He puts the needs and feelings of others before his on selfishness. When he finally changes he learns the real reason what he (and the rest of us ) actualy are here for, he finds happiness, and tge cycle of hell is over. It's good message that has been completely lost in modern society. Nowadays it's all gimme, gimme, gimme rather than what can I do to better myself and my fellow man.
