10 Bafflingly High 2015 IMDb Scores You Won't Believe
6. Pan
The Score: 6/10 What It Should Be: 4/10 There's always been a sense that, with truly terrible blockbuster movies, the users over at the IMDb have been more than happy to give them their rating-based comeuppance. It's strange to see that Pan, then, one of the worst films of 2015 - and a film that one could quite easily argue is one of cinema's great disasters - has a rating of 6. Not 5.3 or 4.9, but a 6. Talk about about a liberal score, guys! Pan is so relentlessly bad from beginning to end, a film constructed from an endless conveyer belt of ill-judged scenes, that it barely deserves a 5. The script, the visuals, the soundtrack - everything about Pan sucks. What did you see in this movie, IMDb users? How does it make any sense that anybody sat down to Joe Wright's unmitigated screw-up and said: "Yeah, that's worth a six." Pan is so exhausting in its conceit - packed to the brim with bad decisions. There must be an error on the site or something. Can we investigate that, please? Can we at least look into it?
