Questionable ratings


I think its interesting how the director comments on the one person who gave the movie a low rating and questions how he was able to see it, but ignores the other 3 comment who gave the movie a "10". How did they see the movie?

This is the reason we can't trust the ratings on IMDB. Too many people giving movies a 10 not because they liked it, but because they're trying to get others to see it.

Hey not to say that you are wrong man but the people on the comments page said they saw it at the film festivals the movie was in. The guy who left the poor acting comment never said where he had seen the movie just bashed it

It's true IMDB ratings aren't very useful. Unfortunately, too many people come here to either boost their own movie ratings or to torpedo others, or they're twelve years old and haven't watched many films.

You can tell that just by looking at the breakdown. Normal movie ratings follow a bell curve, where maybe the average comes in at 5 or 6 or 7 and there are a scattering of people rating it higher or lower. Here, way too many of the ratings are 1's and 10's, forming the peaks (on the same movie) and then a scattering of people in the middle. So I come here to see details on the participants, and look at Netflix or any other site for ratings.
