This is my 10 Star Rating system. What's yours?

Below is a guide by which I rate movies as consistently as possible. I've adjusted slightly over the years, but it's been in this form for awhile and I believe it gives cohesion to how I consider films/shows.

10: MASTERPIECE - A true must-see for all audiences. This is the pinnacle example of what film can be. I would recommend this movie to everyone just to see how incredible it is. I plan to rewatch this movie many times, and will share with others. Blew all expectations out of the water.

9: EXTRAORDINARY- Superior quality in all technical aspects. Among the best in its class. I would recommend this movie to most people, and while it might not be a must-see for all audiences, it absolutely is for fans of the Genre and/or Director. I will definitely rewatch this movie. Vastly exceeded my expectations.

8: REMARKABLE- While not perfect, it is of significantly higher technical quality than most other films. Many aspects go above and beyond other movies in its class, and there are very few minor flaws. I would happily watch it again, and would recommend it to most people. Exceeded my expectations and a great use of time.

7: GREAT- Several aspects go above and beyond other movies. There are a few minor issues, but I enjoyed the movie enough to overlook most flaws. I would recommend this movie to people who are interested in seeing it. I would rewatch the movie if another person suggested it. Met my expectations and was a good use of time.

6: GOOD- Entertaining and marginally better than the average movie. The technical quality has a lot of room for improvement, but it is worth a watch for most people. Glad I watched it, but I don't necessarily need to watch it again. Expectations were somewhat met, and I didn't feel it was a waste of time.

5: AVERAGE- Not bad, not good. Overall, it is probably forgettable. A few aspects kept me engaged enough to finish, but my attention likely drifted throughout. I wouldn't necessarily dissuade people from watching it, but also cannot recommend it. Wish I had watched something else instead.

4: MEDIOCRE- Disappointing. A few minor positive aspects kept me interested enough to continue watching, but these are not enough to overcome the negatives. I would rather not watch this movie again, and would suggest others to consider watching something else. Basically, a waste of time.

3: BAD - I struggle to understand how anyone could enjoy this movie. It was difficult to finish, and a failure of the creators. Maybe one minor positive aspect, but it's overshadowed by poor quality throughout. I would avoid watching it again and would suggest others to avoid it. If you walk out of the theater you won't miss anything.

2: TERRIBLE - This movie is irredeemably bad. I cannot understand how this movie got made, and question the taste of anyone who enjoyed it. I was highly irritated while watching. I would refuse to watch this movie again, and would strongly advise others to avoid it. Run, don't walk away from the theater.

1: ATROCIOUS - Among the worst movies I've ever seen. This film is so bad that I almost want to recommend people watch it just to see how laughably horrible it is. This movie is a dumpster fire in every aspect. So impossibly bad that it's a spectacle to behold in itself.

What do you think? Feel free to use this as a guideline for yourself if you don't have one yet. Would also love to hear how you take your ratings into consideration.
