I don't know what's wrong with the Americans

Rating: 1/10 (14 October 2011)

I mean, seriously. I love Hollywood movies, but I've been cheated again like many times before, by the IMDb ratings that people have given to films like 'Shutter Island' or 'Mullholland Drive.' I think its must be some sort of a fashion or status-quo in America to praise and talk +vely about such films that have no ending or have a very confusing plot or one that does have (supposedly) a hidden meaning etc: while I fail to see how can so many Americans actually understand such complex plots and also like them, when mostly they are considered quite 'dumb,' and perhaps rightly so.
I was astonished to see that people had rated this movie at 8, when brilliant movies like 'Paycheck', 'Bone Collector' or 'Fracture' are only around 6-7. I watched this movie only after checking the ratings on IMDb, and really, what a waste. I can now perhaps see more clearly why Americans are considered so dumb, so much so that they can be fooled into anything: even wars.
