Review trolls


I know a troll when I see one, and half of the reviews for this are troll bait.

IMDB needs an additional button. "Report this" and "Boom boom troll."

I agree that one of the four is a likely troll candidate with all the gushing over the director, and that's supported by the fact that the reviewer had only thiat single review to his/her credit. The only other single reviewer, however, obviously didn't understand what he/she was watching and bemoaned the fact that the film (which was produced strictly as a visual aesthetic)had no story line.

That said, I could agree there are far too many lopsided reviews for some films, and having such a report button would be handy if used with discretion. But, as has been discussed in other threads, that button would most assuredly lead to another kind of abuse, with some people feeling compelled to use the button to show disagreement with someone's honest review, thus adding an unintended weapon to the troll arsenal.

I see a lot of reviews posted that really do not say anything about the movie.. I mean 'Ah, brilliant, amazing imagery!' and other praises but nothing, really nothing about waht the docu (in this case) is about.. Should such a review be the one we first see when we visit the movie page?!?

I loved it. It's not for stories...in fact, I think it's supposed to be something you put on in the background...and let yourself meditate to the visual/music and create a story yourself while watching.

Those visuals though. Is there any other films/documentaries that look like this?

I want to see them, if so.

I guess because it's in 4k. I hope this is the quality of what future movies will look like.
