a vague ratings guide to the right that i actually refer to all the time because i am an indecisive overthinker and some more cinema themed favourites of mine if u press the image above plus a navigation page for my millions of lists (wip)
½ i probably had to fight to sit through this one but i'll forget about it tomorrow and never watch it again
★ so awful that i feel bad for the crew
★½ barely bearable
★★ there was potential somewhere but it was so wasted
★★½ so close to being watchable but it just didn’t quite catch me
★★★ fairly enjoyable to watch but not quite a favourite, average
★★★½ pretty good and i'd probably watch it again but not for a few weeks so whatever was off about it can settle
★★★★ entering the realm of favourites but something in my heart says there's still something missing
★★★★½ so close to perfect but i'm pretentious
★★★★★ i probably cried or had my jaw on the floor or both and i will be talking about it for days
letterboxd account established 2018 but only actively logging since 2022 so if i havent rated or reviewed something then the last time i watched it was 2021 or prior
