7.0, are you beep jestering, people?

This is one of the best movies I've ever seen. The sheer dark tone and atmosphere, the creepily convincing acting and the true-to-nature direction makes this a masterpiece. 7.0 is not bad in itself, but all the negative comments for this movie really shock me? I mean, how the *beep* can you give this a 1 when there are so many movies rightfully considered awful out there? I don't see it.

I disagree with you about the acting.

"Creepily convincing acting"? Really? That's what you call that horrendous crap?

It's not that great, honestly. I think the movie's lucky to even have a 7; it really should be much lower...like in the 4.8-5.5 range. Whoever came up with that opening should be lined up and shot.
