Rating Practices
We all have criteria for rating films. But unrelated elements like mood, age, relationship status, crowds, & hype can really impact our final vote.
My biggest one is how much I spent to see a film. I'm kindest checking it out from the library and harshest driving to another city to view in IMAX. I'm wondering if this is common & if so, what's your biggest "nothing-to-do-with-the-actual-film" factor that impacts your final rating.

That's an interesting criteria. I guess I'm more apt to rate a movie higher if I didn't know anything about it and saw on a whim than if I was really excited for it and it didn't live up to my hype. I know, disappointment is a direct result of unrealistic expectations but it happens.

Isn't it? I discovered quite accidentally I'm like that - terribly fascinating.
Now, if I think I won't like a flick I wait for the library to get it. I've been checking out movies I haven't liked. About 40% are keeping their initial "It sucks!" rating. The rest got upgrades from "Eh, whatever." to "It wasn't that bad." Haven't had any true 180º turn arounds... yet.

My opinion is also very affected by a movies score, which IS of course a part of the full picture, but maybe doesn't really have that much to do with the movie itself. |
