Rating system
Don't know if I'll use this consistently, but if I do, here it is:
10 masterpiece (average, 2ish per year)
9 great (in a strong year, they round out the top 10)
8 near great
7 recommended with minor reservations
6 recommended with major reservations
5 neither recommended nor not recommended
4 a failure that is neither particularly painful, nor particularly interesting
3 I'm mildly bitter about the time I'll never get back
2 I'm very bitter about the time I'll never get back
1 Eat your gun before you see this movie
