ALERT!! DON'T BELIEVE THE HYPE!!


I would like to issue a little warning: beware of the positive remarks about this "film" (for lack of a better word) on the user comments page.. they all seem to have come from either the same source or from someone who has never submitted a review before, thus proving my theory that they all come from some non-too-subtle publicist. And that goes for the message board too. Tooth is flopping quite nicely at the UK box office due to it's appalling acting, cheapo special effects and gut-wrenching sentimental moments, and I'd hate to see even one person fooled into going because of one sad person's efforts (Who probably hasn't even sat through this pig-sty of a movie). Thank you. That is all..

... and there's no more than a couple of positive comments here on the message board... Getting rather unduly 'worked up' about such a small film, aren't we???!

If this is the extent of the "hype" you talk about, then I don't think there's much to worry about, anyway... Professional reviews slated this from the moment it first arrived... It's a pretty feeble "groundswell" going on here, to counteract it... !

What would there be to worry about, even if there were lots of positive comments about Tooth here? What would the person or persons who are ranting and raving about the film lose if other people chose to watch it?

I can't help wondering if this campaign to rubbish the film on its IMDb message board was dreamt up by some industry rival. I'm not much into conspiracy theories, though, so I'm not taking the idea too seriously. ;)

Still, I can't think why some random member of the public would bother doing such a thing. When I don't like a film, I don't go round trying to stop everyone else from watching it. Everyone should be free to make up their own minds about it, of course.

And I still say that Tooth is brilliant. :)

So, if anyone who hasn't seen the film is reading this, go on, give it a chance! It's out on DVD, so you should be able to find it. And you never know, you might find it more enjoyable than certain people would like you to think. :)
