IMDb is an awesome site. It is the go to place for information about movies and TV show. Of course, there's a downside to this; filmmakers, their friends and family, all know that a review on this site will be seen by thousands. Hence, the fake reviews and by fake I mean people who are pumping up the movie so that people go and see it. These fakes are easy to spot.
So here's how to spot the fake reviews for this movie:
This film was shown in New Orleans on Nov 22, 2014.
On Nov 23d of 2014, the very next day, six (count them **six**) people all came and reviewed this film. All *very* positive. ("Excellent film " "Absolutely loved it!" "excellent story and production" "Strong story, and great acting by Tom Felton") And guess what, if you look at the profiles of all these six people, they have only reviewed *one single* movie ever, and guess which one that movie was?
Yup! "Against the Sun."
And none of these six awesome reviewers have *ever* returned to IMDb to review any other movie. Suspicious? I think so!
By the way, everyone comes to IMDb and just looks at the stars and the reviews, which as I just proved are worthless. If you want to know the truth, click on the links for the message boards for this movie and this is what you will see:
"The Sharknado movies had better CGI sharks." "Did people in the military routinely wear jeans during missions?" "Hats off to the writers who managed to stretch a few chapters from a book to create a 100 min movie without any acknowledgment of original work or author except for identical plot points and character conflicts. "
Don't waste your time with "Against the Sun." Really awful and fake Computer Generated effects start it out and within minutes you are in a raft, where you will spend the rest of the movie. How's that for super low budget?
Mediocre acting. Mediocre story. Mediocre direction. Mediocre movie.
Thousands of other good movies around that will fill your time better.
