Peter Slack and "I against I" review

Few weeks ago I viewed British made movie called unimaginatively "I against I". The title refers to names of two characters, however movie is so unmemorable I could not remember what they are, Isaac and Ivan, Igor and Idiot, something else, who cares. If you still care, go watch this movie, I can guarantee you wont care by time its over and you feel 84 minutes of your life slipping away.

First problem with this movie is its 84 minutes. That happens to be minimum running time required to show it in theaters, and when movies come up short on running time, they pad it. Well, this movie "I against I", more than likely was over and done in 15 minutes, if that, so 70% of this movie is pointless waste of time and unimaginative padding.



Second problem with this movie is that they took false advertising of movies to completely new level. There is a saying "I can do it well, or I can do it cheap", well, they chose to go cheap, and fake "well" by trying to build hype. When I wrote my original review for this movie on IMDB it had 70 likes, 1 dislike (which I believe was by Peter Slack, Executive Producer of "I against I"), and movie rating was 2.8 and slipping lower. My review was the ONLY review for this movie, it is simply a bad low budget garbage that most people on this planet are very likely to live their entire lives without ever having heard of it. And that is a GOOD thing!

Then I received message in my inbox on IMDB. Here is what that message was:

I replied with this:


This is actual screenshot of my review on its first day, before it became 70 likes and 1 dislike :


Quite frankly, my response to his threat should have been the end of it. Plot Summary is credited to him (it still is, I just checked), and while by now its obvious he did not actually write it, because he is borderline illiterate and I do not believe he has mental capacity to form sentences that would pass as plausible for (his claim) "well respected businessman in London having over 40 businesses" involving "500 staff to look after".

Instead, what actually happened, and is happening, is that Peter Slack chose to probably purchase, but I guess its possible he has friends/family/investors willing to come fake rate movie for him too,  10 star rating about 50 times for this movie, to raise its rating from 2ish to 3.8 in ONE DAY (statistically highly improbable to happen honestly), and then he proceeded to mass file reports for abuse against any and all negative reviews for this movie. My Facebook account has also been reported for being "fake", I was forced to mail my legal documents to prove my identity, all without any sort of sensible or logical thinking on part of whoever is in charge of this stupidity at Facebook. If I didnt find it easier to log in with my FB account to a lot of places I would have deleted it by now, as Facebook seems to be run by people with sub 80 IQ and very badly coded bots that people like Peter Slack seem to enjoy exploiting.

Knowing how Peter Slack behaves, there is a possibility of this blog and its posts existing very briefly on blogosphere. It is my hope that word about behavior of this person spreads enough in meantime that it will not matter.

Criticism is not trolling. There is rather large difference between the two. If we allow everybody that cannot handle his critics to call them all trolls and report them all for "abuse" there will not be any freedom of speech left to protect. I am entitled to my opinion, on this movie, on this person, and I should be allowed to speak it publicly without fear of reprisal. Currently, virtually all large providers to communication platforms, such as YouTube (including rest of Google, such as Blogger), IMDB, Facebook, Twitter, Wordpress.com, are removing content unreasonably in fear of potential lawsuits. People are losing their jobs over Facebook posts. To me that sounds like internet is full of fascism and censorship. I would rather deal with law of the jungle and defend myself then have all my rights are freedoms taken away from me to protect everybody from truth as some cannot handle it.
