Now, lately because I have been watching loads more films than usual and giving each one a mini review and rating I've been reading the reviews for films too. Not critics reviews, film magazines and blogs like I've always done but your reviews. The thoughts of the general movie going public.
Now I realise everyone is entitled to their own opinion on anything and I realise that you may not agree with some of the ratings I've given films, but some of you movie reviewing film viewers are mental!
I won't have my rant in this post. Instead I'm going to let you all play a little game. I will post some genuine film reviews written by the "ordinary" movie going public and you guess which film they are talking about.
Remember these are all real reviews. Are you ready for this?
UPDATE: - If anybody correctly guesses the movie review number 14 in this list by Monday 18th April 2011 I will personally buy them a Curly Wurly.
1. Honestly for crap like this I wish there was a 0 option for rating. It's a contemptuous fantasy about the "great empire". Garbage. Call it glamorizing the military. No wonder so many people don't have trouble with the Iraq War (or any other) for that matter-they get their ideas on war from Hollywood, ne'er a battered or bloodied body in sight and no impact beyond the tediousness of the good vs. evil battle. The special effects are unsophisticated, the acting non-existent. A formula movie made with the absolute minimum of skill. This is a movie that's success speaks like no other about money, advertising,media saturation and POWER. And a small aside to the adults, acting like kids still praising this rubbish-GROW UP
2. This film was disturbing. This is not the way a good ghost should act! (even if there were no ghost). Well the best part is the song.
3. I watched the movie in a local cinema the other night,I should admit I was caught in the web of marketing and media frenzy,,half way the show I lost my interest and with difficulty and hundreds of yawns I could go through the dragging,,,this could've been a play instead of a movie,,all the hype and media rush is because it was nominated for golden globe,,and we usually have a sort of pack mentality,the leaders(critics,golden globe etc.)said it worth to watch and we rush to see it,,believe me it is not.
4. Yep, [one out of] 100. It's just so terrible that's probably more than it deserves. The reason it's in black and white is because it's so bad, if it were in color than people could actually see the fake blood is, in fact, ketchup! I believe this movie is over rated and I even think Escape From L.a and the new Rollerball are better than it(they are both at least 50 times better).
5. I found this amusing for about no minutes whatsoever. The movie has "franchise" written all over it. Are we ready for the dolls? The Burger King cups? Heck, yes, obviously - let's reduce all imagination to cheap commodities, sell our children on an open market and let business ethics only apply. The "story" is soporific, the dialog cliché, the characters banal, the message simpering wimpy crap only suited for a sado-masochist on a hangover. Gaudy bit of CGI fluff pretending to be a "children's classic" - only in the dreams of the cynical and the dead.
6. just plain bad not even slightly funny .jules what were u thinking.It isn't a little funny not one laugh occurred when i saw it. It wasn't only me who hates it a lot of people did,i just can't understand how people could like this garbage.it is silly and immature and anyone who likes it must have the mind of a child. it is really stupid.please if your considering watching this please take caution.oh and if you were thinking of watching the other one please don't it is worse.i hope this warning is useful to you. yes also please no one decide to use this movie for a media studies project please don't do it. the humor in it is just stupid i mean i see it on the screen and i just don't laugh it just not funny!!
7. If this movie is serious, it is terrible. If it is a comedy, they hit the mark. The funniest part was when the gay character is reading the koran. The muslims would come for this guy first and string him up or stone him under sharia law. Please. You want to do a movie, make the bad guys muslims not Christians. The cinematography was well done.
8. I was disgusted with this film within ten minutes.
If the film has a point, I will never know it.
I was repulsed.
I became physically ill.
Junkies don't act like that, and they certainly don't slap their arms like that.
This film was nominated for an Oscar.
This film was influential with the youth of America, if not the world.
This film was not funny.
This film was pointless.
This film was retchingly creepy.
Not exactly Great Expectations, but what can you expect from the generation that listens to Fifty Cent?
9. I must be the odd one out. I saw this movie with my son. Both of us found the movie very bad, bad story line very bad action.
Yes there is action, lots of action. But the action is action for the action, it hard to see a story line.
The story is also very over the top. I know it is a kind of SF movie but unlike Starwars the action and gadgets are totally exaggerated. So overall a wast of money. It was hard not to fall asleep.

10. It's easy to fool a sheep. Take an idea with great potential and then throw it in a barrel and burn it. Then throw a banal senseless story that barely looks complex, mix it with cheap action and waste over 2 hours of everyones lives. And the sheep rejoice because they think it is intelligent, daring, original and emotional. The truth is sad; it's just another generic Hollywood blockbuster action set in a "fantastic'' setting. It insults intelligence and anyone with an IQ > 70 gets it, and the majority praises it for it's emptiness because only that can they understand.
These types of movies make me wonder if we really deserved a comet in 2012.
11. this is the worst film ever to be made because its CR*P and it ain't ready for the godfather all you r.e teachers understand that. so all you r.e teachers be quiet before you get shanked.
1.the godfather 2.the godfather pt 2 3.inception

12. I can't believe some of you liked this movie. It's one of the most awful things i've ever seen. There's too many charachters and stories, the jokes ain't funny and the acting sucks.
It's absolutly disgusting. Even the edition is bad. Nothin works in this movie. 1 out of 10.
13. I couldn’t even read the review—so offended just by the premise of this movie. Why would anyone claiming to love Christ find humor in something pertaining to this subject matter. I hope no one is watching this without a heavy heart. Couldn’t pay me to watch it.
14. Uses the Lord's name in vain many times. Nothing here which leads watchers to Jesus. Some adultery scenes.
Moral rating: Very Offensive / Moviemaking quality: 1
15. The movie puts a positive face on witchcraft by making a distinction between white magic and the black arts, a distinction that the Bible never makes. In fact, the Bible associates all forms of sorcery with the Prince of Darkness… Young people who watch the movie will identify emotionally with the heros and heroines and want to be just like them and, in the process, the positive exposure to occult practices will desensitize them to the dangers and maybe entice them to experimentation.
