Ridiculously underrated !


Probably because those viewers are jealous people, or just plain stupid. I really have no idea why this brilliant piece of art has such a low rating.

Just the other night I looked at The Royal Tenenbaums and couldn't believe my eyes when I found that it was rated over a 7 on this site. Completely incompetent critics, obviously.

This one deserves a 7 or more. My compliments to all those involved.

I agree! I will say that when I first saw this movie I hated it!! I guess I was expecting a comedy that made me laugh and it wasn't that kind of movie. I'm not sure what it is, but I know I like it more and more each time I see it.

The Roayl Tenenbaums WAS the biggest waste of screen time and actors I can think of right now.

I agree about Holy Man being underated, not so much with the Royal Tenenbaums. If you wanna slate it go do it on the page for that movie!

ya it didnt deserve to flop as much as it did...not a bad movie at all!

I have to agree. I just say this movie and it was really good. I think the problem is it is not what people expect from Eddie. If he is not playing multiple roles then they don't like it. It was a heart warming story with many good messages.

well i think this deserves more than the current score of 4.8

I wouldn't consider this movie a comedy, so it isn't missing laughs. This is a movie to make you think. Unfortunately, it was touted as a comedy in the commercials and such, so that is what people expected.

IMO almost 5 out of ten is waaaay too high for this crap.

I still remember the trailers for this.

I agree. I enjoyed this movie a lot and rate it 7/10.
