Ratings Guide
A rough metric for the meaning of the numbers below:
- 10: An excellent movie. Meets at least two out of super original, extremely well done, or specifically targeted for Joe Kopena. The crucial factor: It not just holds up to, but demands repeated play.
- 9: Very good, holds up to repeated play. Stops just short of being pitch perfect.
- 8: Definitely a good movie, but maybe not quite engaging enough or a little flat.
- 7: An ok movie; watchable, entertaining, not something to really come back to.
- 6: Maybe watchable, not noteworthy in any way, just short of entertaining.
- 5: Terrible; not worth watching without compelling reason to do so.
- <= 4: Wow! Don't put this in your DVD player unless you have a warranty on it.
Note that films and shows are definitely judged with some view to their genre and medium (e.g., TV), and certainly within my likes, as opposed to some objective quality scheme. Titles in bold are a definite general recommendation.
