Bio: I rate movies based on what I like, not necessarily how good they're made, or how artistic. My overall philosophy is that fiction should be fun, and documentaries should be useful. I don't have much use for depressing fiction or documentaries that show the suffering without any redemptive message.
I use the DRAMAFLOP rating system:

"Love this movie. Owen Wilson is great, the unfolding of the time changes is great, the interplay of historical figures is great, the scenery of Paris is great ( I accidentally stayed a few days near to one of the main locations). Romantic, realistic view of love and hope and confusion So Good.

"Not a fan of this movie. The whole bodhisattva thing was overdone, the Bodhi carachter was annoying and self-serving, there wasn't enough surfing, and the plot was dumb. imho. But my brother loved it, and I have respect for him, so it's not a zero."
