Couldn't disagree more with the reviewer for ORPHAN - Blu-ray Forum

mredman · 10-21-2009, 11:36 PM

Did he even watch the same Orphan we all think about. Giving this movie such a poor review is blasphemy

Everything about this movie is almost considered a masterpiece. The acting in this movie is exceptional by all counts.

[Show spoiler]

It is one of the best movies this year even most critics agree on that.
This reviewer wouldn't know a good movie if it bit him in the ass!

To each his own.

I hope it's good. I needed a fulfillment title for my Columbia House account and chose this one.

Most of the upcoming WB titles are on sale at Amazon for $19.99. But this one is still at $24.99.

It's called an opinion, I know people whot hated all the Lord of the Rings, Godfather, Taxi driver, Godfellas etc. Which is fine, I may think they have a lousy taste in films, but that's not the worst thing that could happen (unless of course they force me to not watch such films as the above).

yeah i know. But to say just a faithful few enjoyed this movie is a lie. Because the majority thought it was excellent and not just a faithful "few"

Uhhhh, not really

It has a 42 on Metacritic and is certified rotten on RT.

JJ · 10-21-2009, 11:57 PM

Who is this majority?

Yeah and critics would never disagree with the general public.

I wouldn't say that a majority liked it, but it did make $40 million so it did have a following. I personally loved it!

Epic Movie made $86 million so revenue isn't really indicative of anything.

Maybe the same could be said about you

Movie reviews are opinions, let's keep that in mind

. And what good would reviews be if they just told you something you were expecting to hear? I think it's pretty close minded to always expect movies you/others love to receive great reviews...not everyone sees movies in the same light, and what matters to me is how well a reviewer supports their opinions, not how well they can blindly dish out a score because it might be expected
