Critical IMDb reviews being deleted


Same thing happened with Girly Ghostbusters. Reviews the point out the blatant racism are reported by Libtards and deleted.

Racially/Politically Divisive Garbage
neener3707 5 July 2018

First of all, the vast majority of my, and others, review discussed how the film really was poorly made. With laughable writing, pathetic acting, and even the kill scenes were just plain old boring. Actors were not playing written characters, but just playing themselves. Writing that looks like it was written by a group of politically charged 13 year olds. But whenever I or others bring up the fact that its anti-white, anti-gun, divisive Leftist trash, which it is, reviews suddenly get deleted because it doesn't fit with the blind acceptance of films like this, Get Out, and the new Star Wars films. This film was just plain old bad, and was only made worse by a pathetic attempt to depict the racial divide in America, only perpetuating the divide instead of trying to preach love and acceptance. Do yourself a favor and don't watch it.

"Get Out" was a phenomenal movie have you ever considered that you just might not like Black People? "The First Purge" is trash and I don't give af if you want to trash this film however you want but you just called out one of the best horror movies to come out in the last decade gives me pause that your just racist.

"Black Lives Matter" the feature film.

This has been taken down twice by idiots and I will keep posting it. More Absolute anti white hate/demonizing/BLM/SJW propaganda from the liberal Hollywood idiots. It's funny how they prove stereotypes they want to deny even in these terrible heaps of garbage films like Get Out, Black Panther, and now First purge. Patriots and most people of America are FINALLY opening their eyes and realizing the that this race baiting, white hating, thug inspiring BLM stupidity is ruining the country and we won't stand for it anymore. Thugs and liberal extremists won't stand a chance in reality when the wars start.

I actually thought Get Out was good. This was...as far from good as it gets. It was putrid.

WOW!
Holy crap guy, take some medication.

There are a hundred 1* reviews on IMDb. I picked that one because it was most extreme. Most made similar points. Maybe you need meds!

In this case I agree. This movie should be offensive to anyone with a brain.


Have a short review of this movie if anyone is interested- https://youtu.be/7yS9vsI1gg8

I had a similar problem when I wrote a critical review of Johnny Depp's "The Demon Barber of Fleet Street" movie (I called it the "The Demon Blunder of Fleet Street". Johnny Depp simply couldn't carry a tune). Some people are all for freedom of speech until you say something they do not want to hear.

antifa and liberals = Sturmabteilung

Really? Because the only reason I came to Moviechat was to find out what all the 1-star reviews were about. The entire first page of reviews, aside a single 5-star, was one stars.
That means that not only did a crapload of people rate it as 1-star, but a crapload more people came behind them and up-voted those reviews as being the most helpful.
And you're here hollering about the "libtards" banning together?

You know what you should do? Get a hobby, man. Really. Put down the politics and take a few steps back. That energy you devote to hating the evil liberals? Channel that elsewhere...into virtually anything else at all.
Jesus criminy, no liberals were out trying to undo your hate for the girly Ghostbusters, get a grip dude. If this movie is garbage, most people will see it for what it is without you having to go to war about it. Lol goddang.

reply

You obviously missed the 54 metascore and rating of 5.3, just like girly Ghostbusters. Get a grip, SJW!

Interesting... if they had some sort of review-busting campaign, it sure ended quickly. I'm looking at some right now that have been up for months. These are bits from reviews posted in July 2018 right after it came out:

"Regressive political messages shoved in your face throughout, eg: EVERY 'bad' or 'evil' character being white - often shown with nazi-esque uniform, KKK uniform, black-face w/ red lips versus the 'good' black gangsters in "the hood."

"Racist, that's what this film is every white person in the film is bad."

"Seemed odd that all the police, soldiers and other gangs who came in to kill the innocents were all white people. Are white people in America really this bad that you have to be portrayed as such?"

"With that, I cancelled my ticket and sought a refund. If I wanted to hear how "awful" the President is, I can watch an hour and a half of CNN or MSNBC -- and don't have to pay the 11 dollar admission fee."

"There was way too much white-bashing and obvious political commentary on today's society."

"This title is a political pile of poop. The drug dealer who deals in his own neighborhood is the good guy. The white KKK members are out against the inner city."

"this prequel panders to stereotypes and racial hatred."

"for whatever reason the movie makers, or at least DeMarco, thought that it would be a good idea in this day and age to play up racial divisions and not only that, but depicting them in a way that is reminiscent of the KKK and neo-Nazis."

"it was borderline rassist having all the bad guys be white and all the others black."

I'm sure anyone who uses the word "libtards" has an insightful, beautifully written review worth reading!

Why would anyone delete that?
