I used to have a red (stop), yellow (consider), green (go) rating system for movies, but there’s not enough nuance there, so I’ve switched to a five star system. I’m also going to employ a half-star between three and four, and three and two.

Five is a must-see. Life changing or makes you change the way you think. There are not many movies that get this rating.
Four is a should-see. I enjoyed it, but it doesn’t deserve the highest rating.
Three means I finished it, didn’t hate it. But it’s not a should-see. It’s not terrible, parts of it could even be good. Oftentimes decent movies that are too long get this rating.
Two means it’s bad. Avoid.
One means it’s terrible. I regret seeing it.

By the end of 2026 I should have a public, sortable spreadsheet for all the movies I’ve seen with their respective rating.
