I will be posting my first film review shortly, but before I do, I wanted to lay out my reasoning behind the scoring system, better known as the "Dino-Score."
I will be utilizing the 1-5 scale, no half-measures. This applies to both film and video games. I feel that this system is easier to understand in regards to what I'm trying to communicate, which is the property's value to the consumer. Let's go through each of them and lay out what they mean.
1/5 - Poor Execution All Around. Not recommended for anyone.
2/5 - Below Average. Only worth recommending if you really like what is on offer here, be it a specific style or talent involved. You'd have to be a hardcore fan to appreciate what's on offer here.
3/5 - Average. Has some strong points, but also some weak ones. Recommended for people with a general interest in whatever is on offer.
4/5 - Above average. Strong execution in important areas, with few reservations holding it back from greatness. Enjoyable, and well worth checking out.
5/5 - Excellent. Damn near perfect. Recommended for everyone who enjoys media consumption, regardless of taste or background. Must-have experiences.
Obviously, my opinions are not the gospel. My reviews are entirely subjective and not for everyone. I have biases, that much is unavoidable. Take me at my word and make up your own mind.
