      'Nuff said.
      depends on what you mean by like, I enjoy it, its entertaining, but that doesn't mean its one of the best movies of all time, or even for 1985.

        Just messing with you.

        Rocky 4 is the perfect example of why you should listen to the critics over 13 year olds.

        Rocky 4 - Critics: 47%
        Rocky 4 - Community: 79%

          never ever ever look at reviews for a comedy from a review site

          for the rest of the movies they are a pretty good indicator of the quality of the movie (always look for the critics that matches your taste in movies)

            At least 90% of the time I think the average rating is spot on. I usually don't look at ratings until after I see a movie, unless it's one I'm skeptical about.

              Yeah, because you'll get something like this..

              Super Troopers - Critics: 35% (Accurate)
              Super Troopers - Community: 89%

              The community would have you believe that Super Troopers is just as good as ''The Hustler.'' Again, the critics come away with another victory.

                cant say there always wrong, but word of mouth is usually a better thing for comedies

                Big Lebowski (all) 79%

                Big Lebowski (critics) 62%

                  Super Troopers was a great comedy.

                    Super Trooper is the most overrated comedy of all-time. Complete trash, I'm ashamed to have it in my DVD collection (bought it before watching it).

                      Source Code was pretty good btw..

                      Red Riding Hood got a 12% and it was actually a decent movie. Not sure what happened there.

                        Just giving another example why it's better to listen to critics, than the communities at these big sites, because the community would have you believe that ''Super Troopers'' ranks up there with some of the greatest movies of all-time. And if you believe that, I'm sorry, but you're a fucking moron.

                        My problem with the community, is that people have a hard time judging good and bad - I'm one of the very few people that I know, that can enjoy a bad movie, yet come right out and tell you that it fucking stinks. There's nothing wrong with enjoying bad movies - but to come out and recommend the bad movie to someone because it ''ROCKED,'' just shows how fucking retarded you are (Not you personally.)

                        Critics never turn me in the wrong direction.

                          Perfect example of your typical dumbass.

                          Did he say ''I liked Super Troopers?'' No.

                          He said super ''Troopers is a great comedy.''

                            I've never really seen super troopers so I cant comment on it, but you are a bit right about recommending stupid movies however, different people have different tastes and with comedy those preferences can make or break the movie.

                              He owns the DVD, but can tell the difference between a good movie, and a bad one, which Super Troopers is.

                                i check sometimes. I don't always agree with their ratings, for example their ratings of both Paranormal Activity movies.

                                I agree we their ratings as well like on The Tourist, Dogtown, Kings Speech.
