The Movie I Saw (2012 Edition)


nOW wITH rATINGS!
***** = Must be seen before you die.
****   = Really good.
***    = Worth seeing, but you won't die for lack of it.
**      = A waste of time, but one or two good moments.
*       = You'll lose two IQ points watching this one.  
-0     = This will make you want to kill yourself, but only
            after you have mounted a water tower with a 
            rifle and taken out as many others as time allows.  
            This rating was invented after viewing The Rules 
            of Attraction.  ( -0, Less Than Zero, ya know?)
