Rating Scale

Must See In Theater

Movies falling into this category are good strong films that are enhanced by the viewing experience you can only get in a movie theater staring at a 40 ft screen with full surround sound

Must Own

Movies in this category are one’s I may have recommended to be seen in theaters and are films that would be good additions to any movie buffs catalog of films

Good Rental

This category is reserved for films that are good enough to spend money on but not really worth the theater prices or to take up space on a shelf in your home, but still worth seeing as soon as they are available to rent

Wait For Premium Showing

This is a film I’d consider average no real strong performances, or new plots offered but a movie worth seeing at some point just not worth spending money on past the premium cable channel add-on you may already pay for (i.e. HBO, Showtime, Cinemax, Stars, Encore) tried not to leave anyone out don’t be offended if I did I love all premium channels equally, I promise

Catch if you’re in the Mood

This is a film you may want to catch sometime but don’t make plans around it, best to catch it if you're in the mood to rapidly stick rusty nails in and out of your cornea

Movies Available at Rental Retailers

Rating Scale

Must Own

Movies in this category are very good films and well worth the extra $15 or so over renting to take a spot in your film collection

Rent Now

This category is reserved for films that just missed being worthy of a theater view, or have moved to video before I could review it in theaters but is a good film and should be rented as soon as you have a chance to but may not warrant the second, third, forth, etc viewing of a must own film

Rent for $1 or Less

This is a pretty good film nothing special, but worth a rent if you happen to find a Redbox, MovieCube, or some other $0.99 retailer that carries the film go for it

Waste of Plastic

Reserved for films that should replace water bottles in the adds aimed at inspiring people to reduce their carbon foot prints (i.e. they belong in a landfill)
