How my Ratings Work:
100-90: Masterpiece, or very close. Very rare.

079-70: Definitely something special. Do not miss.
069-60: Very good, but missing some crucial element.
059-50: Didn’t work, but has many redeeming qualities.
049-40: Demerits clearly outweigh merits.
039-30: Didn't enjoy the film, but talent was involved.
029-20: When will this picture end. When...
019-10: Outright fiasco and/or unwatchably boring.
