Featured review
6.1 at the time of writing
There must be a bug in IMDBs rating system - How on god's earth does this masterpiece only receive a mere 6.1 out of 10? I can only imagine the amount of terrible movies that score higher. Anyway, it's a beautiful, feel-good, heart-warming, action-packed, hilarious movie that may even shed a tear. I gave it a 10 to raise the average, though, it probably does deserve a 9. A big thank you to its producers.
