I don't understand why people liked this film

Rating: 1/10 (7 December 2006)

This film was dire. I don't mind the religious symbolism, I don't mind the fact that the protagonist was a terrorist. After all - it's only a film. I DO mind the fact that it was poorly acted, comically scripted, populated with pantomime villains, and so 'sledgehammer' unsubtle as to insult the intelligence of anyone with more than a couple of braincells to rub together.
Pathetic.
The fact that this is in the IMDb top 250 says something dire about the tastes of the world, It's not fit to wipe the arse of most films I've seen, and I've seen literally thousands.
I'm sure this post will garner some reaction from people trying to defend it. Heaven knows, enough people seem to like it. I don't really care about any of that. My intention on posting this comment (my first on IMDb) was simply to readdress the balance of good reviews this film has somehow gathered and appeal to people with taste - this film is NOT for you.
To reiterate the title of my post. I don't understand why people liked this film.
Maybe those who didn't were laughing at the script too much to string a review together......
