Arrow Weird reviews you've read on the Internet

I just had to set up a thread for this because I came across a review for Toy Story 3 on Amazon yesterday and I couldn't believe what I was reading, because it was just so crazy and stupid.

Here's the review:-
Quote:
Yes it's well made and animated but I just couldn't get past the idea of TOYS actually coming to life. I just kept thinking this would never happen. I also found the internal logic of the toys movement ability a little bizarre. Nearly every toy moved parts that in real life are not articulated, such as facial expressions yet other toys were hindered by lack of articulation for example the way the pizza planet aliens bounce along awkwardly as they have no joints in their legs. I found this to be very unrealistic and pretty much ruined the film for me. Toys that come to life when you're not looking? Give me a break! I thought talking fish was bad enough, at least they are living. I did like the homage to Hayao Miyazaki/Studio Ghibli at the end though, I think I'll stick to their animations in future.


I'm sorry if this thread is intrusive on other people's opinions and if it is then just lock the thread, but I just had to share with you this bizzare review I read.

The rest is pretty stupid and weird IMO though. It's not like the movie is based on a true story...or claiming to be..lmao.

I was doing a little research on Boost Mobile and came across some "interesting" reviews for Depends Boost liners.

i love reading reviews like this always good for a laugh but kind of scary if the people writing this honestly feel this way

i remember there was a review of a toaster or something and this supposedly 76 year later gave it one star because it melted her dvd cases lol was it a real review? who knows. but a lot of highly unbelievable stuff happens in this world, so an old lady melting dvd cases in a toaster is completely realistic in a lot of ways. as is this guy complaining about how "unrealistic" talking, walking toys are

Sometimes people have no idea how to write reviews about the actual product. Heaven knows what they're going on about and they give the product a negative review because of something else that happened.
