EL RATINGS

Like professional critics I do have a rating system. A quick and easy way to  figure out what I thought about a movie. The system goes from one to five 'Gs'. How good a movie is is derived from the following things, in order of importance from greatest to least: how entertaining it is, how good the script is, how good the acting is, how good the SPFX are, how good the directing is, other stuff.

Below is a quick and easy decipher key.

sk.gif (1207 bytes)=This is a special rating for movies that should have all their prints destroyed, all the money they made should be donated to charity and everyone involved should be sterilized for the sake of future generations. Hopefully I won't have to use this much.

gzil.gif (728 bytes)=Industrial strength crap. A movie to be avoided at all cost. I watched this so you don't have to.

gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)=Pretty bad as movies go, but it wasn't painful to sit through. Might be good for fans of the particular actor, director, writer, whatever, involved. Everyone else should pick from the following.

gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)=Not bad. Defiantly worth a look and it has some redeeming features. It's not exactly Casablanca but I had a mildly fun time. You might too, but read the review first, there's no accounting for taste, mine or yours.

gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)=A darn good movie. Exciting, well made and/or just plain fun to watch, you can see these movies with confidence that you're getting your money's worth.

gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)gzil.gif (728 bytes)=This is a special rating reserved for the best stuff movie making has to offer. Movies with this rating are ether flawless or nearly so. Hopefully I'll use this rating lots of times. But, given the state of movies today, I doubt it.
