How do my ratings work?

You may be curious as to how I rate films in my reviews. It's quite simple -- done on a scale of one to five stars (with half stars included as well). Easy, efficient and understandable. You'll find the ratings at the top of every review. Here's a chart for you guys:

* Absolute trash. Not worth the time or money to watch.
** A sub-par film. Possibly worth a rental for fans of the genre.
*** An average flick. Entertaining at best and not worth second viewings.
**** Good film and a great viewing experience. Worth multiple viewings.
***** Masterpiece. A must-see film.

So, there you have it. Enjoy!
