We will be rating films in a number of different categories that we believe add to the overall success and entertainment value of the film. The categories used to evaluate a movie will vary depending upon the genre. It obviously would not make sense to judge the Shawshank Redemption based upon its comedic value.
All categories will be judged on a scale from zero to five. We decided to have some fun with the rating system so we've provided a brief outline here of what each rating means.
Plot: As the father of western literature, we have honored Homer by using him for our plot rating system. The plot rating is a judgment of the coherence and believability of the story, the intelligence needed to keep up with the movie, and the originality of the script.
Acting: It takes a lot of skill to act without speaking (shout out to Silent Bob), so we went with one of the most well known actors of all time in silent film star Charlie Chaplin.
Laughs: We decided upon one of our personal favorite comedians: Mitch Fatel. For those of you who have not heard of him, I would only recommend him to those not easily offended.
Romance: Trojan Horses. Figure it out.
Special Effects: How could we not give credit to Michael Bay on this one? This rating system is based on the man who believes that special effects are all that is needed to make a good movie.
Overall: Forget stars. We're going with alcohol. We cheers each rating with a beer. A kamikaze is used to represent half ratings.
