^^As do a large amount of decent independent movies that get panned right from the start from people whop haven't even seen the films saying things like "I bet this sucks", followed by a hundred sheep who say the same then 1 star the flick.
I have found a few 3.7-4.5/10 movies that I loved and 6-7/10 films I hate. Its all about personal taste, but films rarely end up with high ratings because of friends and family. That may work for the first few weeks, but a few days after the movie is released the ratings drop. It really only takes 1-2 people to hate it, say a few things on these forums then a bunch of sheep come along and 1 star it. The imdb rating system while flawed evens itself out on most* cases
Just like blockbusters that start out at 8-8.5 when they first come out then settle at around at 6 after it hits a wider audience.
As for this particular film, I can't say its good or bad because I have never seen it and I have learned my lesson from taking movie points from total strangers because of both sides.
I am sure it is a lower budget film so if you don't like that you probably won't like this. I download a lot of films that are rated lowly, and pay for the ones I really like to support the Staff so I don't feel I have a place to trash them if I get it for free, but I will definitely tell people not to spend money on certain films.
I find films I like by going to a couple online reviewers who have similar tastes(along with a couple people I agree with oin here because I tend to like independent films over blockbusters)
Just as I hate shaky cam and found footage films which this appears to be, but others love it.
Edit:
Just saw this and I definitely would warn people not to pay for it.I have seen worse though. 4/10
People who ignore history are doomed to repeat it.
