Too many people drinking the Kool Aid . . . 6.4!?

Sorry folks, I usually love Aussie movies but this one is all over the place. Joel Edgerton is great (loved The Gift) but they should have let him write the screenplay as well.

Some of what is going on with this movie, is that some people are hesitant to buck the trend. They read "brilliant" and "amazing" written by supporters, multiple times, and are afraid of sounding uninformed, so they assume they must have missed something and here comes the 6.4 rating for a 4.0 movie.

There is nothing wrong with you non-fans, it was overacted (especially by Pattinson, I mean my gosh) and boring. Yup, I said it, so serve it up I guess. 4/10 Cheers

definitely should not be 6.4 this masterpiece should be a 9.5, seriously

How was it working on the movie? Or are you just a *beep*!ng troll . . . because there is no third option mate.

Agreed. This movie should be well over 8.5 at least.

True, there's only some, very few.

Think you're being far too kind.

This is 1 at best.

Show was over 15 minutes in.

Pattinson was the best thing in this movie.

I agree, although I liked Pattinson. Rubbish movie. Nothing really happens and no sensible motivation for their actions.
