but with an 8.0/8.1 rating, they MUST be doing SOMETHING right...Yeah, but most people bitching are saying that except for the direction they did enjoy the movie.

IMDb users will always complain. Look at all those users on the Godfather/Citizen Kane/Shawshank Redemption/Schindler's List/Insert Great Movie Title here boards who complain about how overrated the movies are. All the people complaining how the Matrix is a ripoff of Dark City (when in fact, neither movie is original). There will never be 100% agreement on a movie, no matter how great it is.I agree completely with everything you said here. And all I did was voice my opinion on the movie, but you seem to be trying to convince me otherwise.

When it comes to direction, it just depends on what your tastes are. I personally liked it. Some people didn't, and I can understand why. So, for THAT case, I'd say agree to disagree. One man's trash is another man's treasure.If you can understand why, shouldn't you just let it go then? And I wouldn't go so far as to call it trash. Other than the direction, I thought the movie was decent and I would've rated it at least a 7/10 with the same story, but under a different director.
