The reviews on IMBd are stupid, instead of leaving the ratings In the hands of professional critics, they let mainstream people who liked Transfomers get to review films like Citizen Kane. A good 70% of people there have probably never written a proper review in their life, some people just give The Godfather a 1/10 and be like "oH tHe aCtInG iS bAd, sO iS tHe sCrIpt" without any justification or reasoning, and they just mess up the average score. I'm generously giving a 2 star because at least some people on the website appreciate cinema, and don't go and crap on arthouse films like Birdman or Hereditary like mainstream audiences do, just because they probably enjoyed Grown Ups. I honestly don't get why people who don't even enjoy arthouse films would watch them and then leave a bad review because they thought it'd be some Avengers action flick and don't take things like cinematography or acting into account. Please IMBd, let the critics handle this, it's what they do. Films that put in a huge amount of effort in everything get overall scores of under 7s, then fast food movies like Endgame are getting over 8s. It's like McDonald's workers being the judge of a dance competition. It doesn't work out. Thank you for reading.
