Far Better Than 5.9! No Spoilers...

Okay, so, IMDb is my go-to when considering a movie to watch. And while I'll ignore a low scoring movie on the basis of having a number of my actual friends telling me a movie is worth watching, more often then not, when if find a film my friends cannot comment on, I draw the IMDb rating line at 6.4.

And then here comes Swing Shift...

My fiancé and I have been home watching Goldie Shawn and Kurt Russell movies tonight. She recommended Overboard (imdb'ed at 6.8) we watched first and sure enough, very enjoyable. So I was up next to pick.

In researching I stumbled across Swing Shift. Ill admit that seeing this film rated at 5.9/10 I was hesitant. However I had also read that this is the film where Goldie and Kurt fell in love, that being the case, against my better judgement, I put the 5.9 rating aside and we watched it anyway.

This movie was great! I gave it a 9star. It by no means deserves its 5.9 rating. I'll leave my review at that, and let you all decide on your own.

score 9/10
