Who is doing the downvoting here?

The fidiots who only know how to spell misogynist but don't quite know what it means?

Or the other bunch of fidiots who hate Scott Foley with a passion because they hate Jake with a passion because he's not as passionate as the precious Fitz in their Olitz otp world?

This is a brilliant black comedy. Brilliant. Between 7 and 10 stars depending on how good your sense of humour is. But sure as hell and high water, there is a a sect of fücking idiots on this board giving this 1 star because either:

"Eww. Buttface Jake. Hate him. 1 star"

Or

"OMFG! They killed a woman in this. And called her a bitch. Evil white man misogynistic oppression. Feminism. The stick up my ass renders my sense of comedy defunct. 1 star.

Anyone (who is not a troll) down voted this and is not a member of these two fidiocies?

Probably the people that found it boring like myself... I like dark comedies and the only funny person in the movie was Ward's wife. Once she is killed the movie becomes a complete bore.

So... You wanted Ward's wife to not die in the movie "Let's Kill Ward's Wife"? You preferred the 5 minutes preamble to the killing...

Nothing to say to that. At all. This too me is like someone saying they only like the Matrix up until Neo actually enters the matrix. Godspeed and good luck.

I didn't go into the movie knowing she was going to have the only funny lines...

The character is only funny or tolerable because everything she says and does is presented as evidence as to why killing her is merited. That's how she works the way I understand the joke. That's the way you have to understand it, I'd say, otherwise, you should have switched off.

99% of the joke was lost on you. Near the entire movie, near the entire joke you didn't get. If someone's telling a joke you don't get, then yeah you'd be bored, but I doubt people like you would be the majority of the downvoters.

Everyone have their right to their opinion... I understand why some would like it, and I understand why some wouldn't

Personally I liked it somewhat but just enough to give it a 6 it was flawed on many dimensions, for instance bleeding out the woman in the bathtub of their home (have they never seen a single episode of CSI?) and not using gloves when disposing of the remains etc etc

Also the acting was a little dodgy at times and visually it was fairly ugly, but it kept my interest enough to grant it a 6 which is a mild recommendation from me

I don't think you're ready for this jelly 

Exactly. Even you who wanted a forensically accurate comedy, who found it visually fairly ugly (in a bad way?) with dodgy acting still gave it a 6/10.

How mass public voting tends to work, a movie like this doesn't come out with a 5/10 average unless there's a batch of downvoters out there. Downvoters not referring to people like you who gave it a 6/10 and have rational reasons for their vote. Downvoters as in people who are voting for the sole reason of keeping down the score for whichever misguided reason.

I'm not saying that I expect everyone to enjoy it like I did. I'm not saying that I'm some star eyed person who expects honesty and integrity on the internet. It's just irksome when people deliberately distort averages.

The only way this is accurate is if somebody accidentally broadcasted this movie on Lifetime Sunday night, and even in that case, I'd like to think even Lifetime women, not all but some, would be able to appreciate this movie

This is a brilliant black comedy. Brilliant.

LMAO. The first 45 minutes was OK.
