NOTE: Because I’ve subconsciously used it almost my entire life, movies here are scored on the zero to four star rating scale the late Roger Ebert employed for his print reviews, in which three stars or greater indicate escalating degrees of recommendation, two-and-a-half stars an especially intriguing or otherwise worthwhile misfire, and two stars or below declining degrees of “yeah, don’t see this”.
