                guideline: 7.5 usually indicates a level of
                excellence, about like three and a half stars
                from the critics. 6.0 usually indicates lukewarm
                watchability, about like two and a half stars
                from the critics. The fives are generally not
                worthwhile unless they are really your kind of
                material, about like two stars from the critics.
                Films under five are generally awful even if you
                like that kind of film, equivalent to about one
                and a half stars from the critics or less,
                depending on just how far below five the rating
                is. My own
                guideline: A means the movie is so good it
                will appeal to you even if you hate the genre. B means the movie is not
                good enough to win you over if you hate the
                genre, but is good enough to do so if you have an
                open mind about this type of film. C means it will only
                appeal to genre addicts, and has no crossover
                appeal. D means you'll hate it even if you
                like the genre. E means that you'll hate it even if
                you love the genre. F means that the film is not only
                unappealing across-the-board, but technically
                inept as well. Based on this
                description, this film is a C+. |
