the 'pleasantly surprised' review posted on the main page. Obvious shill


I"m so sick of the way Imdb has become.

A long, long, LONG time ago you could actually expect to have honest reviews here from the average viewer. Now film companies spend thousands of "marketing" dollars to hire people to write these blatantly obvious reviews.

You can always tell when it is the poster's one and only comment ever. Its the first thing I check now, how many reviews has this person turned in?

1 only? for this movie? and gave it 9-10/10? come on now, don't play me for an idiot.

And it's always the same type of praise too.

-Don't forget to praise every actor and director.
-For extra points add "I can't wait to see what these guys will do next!"
-Make sure to mention you will buy the DVD, since this is a movie you can watch over and over and never get bored!

I could go on but its late and I'm drawing a blank. Feel free to contribute to the list!

And the other nine reviews since? Are they shills too? Just because you don't like a movie, doesn't mean everyone has too.
