I don't understand the low ratings on IMDB


I really don't understand why this movie got so many low ratings on IMDB. The movie works really well. It never gets slow, it cacthes the attention of the audience and the performance by Joel Kinnaman is amazing. Maybe some people felt uncofortable with the fact that there's no dialogue but the movie really doesn't need it. Every scene is charged with dramaticity and action and the score is absolutely beautiful and perfect for this movie. I would give it a 7 without any problem. Anyway, I'm puzzled by the criteria with which people evaluate movies. For instance, they gave a 8 to Dream Scenario, which is quite disappointing and has a story that really doesn't add up.

The I like the Swedish Jewish Meatball Joseph Kinnaman and I love MI2 director John Woo but this was shite.

I didn't know that Kinnaman was Jew (meatball :-D). I guess this explains why he works so much in the industry although he's a good actor. Well, we have different opinions about the movie. Still, I don't understand why you and other people consider it shit.

Some people actually think it is slow. It takes half the movie until he starts on his revenge mission.
