Not in Your Top 1000 TCIs
Bio: A 50/100 is an average movie based on my scoring. Fortunately, I tend to watch good or great movies, so my tiers are a bit messed up!
100 - Platinum
90 - Gold
80 - Silver
70 - Good
60 - Decent
50 - Average
40 - Poor
20 - Very Bad
10 - Atrocious
00 - Malignant
There are two components I consider before arriving at a film's score.
1. Genre - A children's movie will be ranked with other children's movies in mind.
2. Overall appeal - how enjoyable the film is ignoring its genre.
Thus, it is possible for a film at the height of its genre to score in the 70 range if I outright hate that genre. While I try to score films with their genres in mind -- it is silly to compare Seven Samurai with Dumb and Dumber -- the final score will lean heavily to my personal enjoyment.

"If you aren't a huge fan of the Beatles, I would recommend watching key moments from the film on youtube and skipping the full documentary. Jackson should've made this version 2 - 3 hours shorter and released an ultra long director's cut for the superfans. However, for an honest look at the creative process that most musicians follow, this documentary is indispensable."

| 70 36% | 14 Peaks: Nothing is Impossible (2021) - Rated 05 Dec 2021
"This would’ve worked better as a TV series to flesh out the challenges of each ascent and the various personalities involved. This probably wasn’t possible to make since the project started with barebones funding, was filmed by members of the climbing team, and was edited after the fact. Apparently, there’s a book describing the expeditions which goes into more detail. This was too superficial for my liking."
