How do you rate these ten films?


I just finished watching all 10 films. Here is my rating of them on a scale from 1 to 10:

A perfect 10 for episodes: 1,10;

A rating of 9 for episodes: 5,4,7

A rating of 8 for episodes: 2,8,9;

A rating of 7--7.5 for: 3,6.

How do you rate them?

I won't rate them, but I agree that the first and the last are the best.

I've seen them up to Number 7 so far, and I love them all very much, I'll give them all 10s.

I'll rank them,too, though it is kind of hard:

1.Part One
2.Part Seven
3.Part Six
4.Part Three
5.Part Four
6.Part Two
7.Part Five

This is more of a favorite thing,the most touching,not necessarily the best.

The candy-colored clown they call the Sandman.

Now that I've seen them all:
1.Part One
2.Part Seven
3.Part Six
4.Part Ten
5.Part Three
6.Part Four
7.Part Two
8.Part Five
9.Part Nine
10.Part Eight

And I liked them all, it's just that Part Eight was the least interesting to me(simply because the others were extremely interesting, not because it wasn't)

I agree. I was restless while watching the eighth, while I didn't even shuffle in my seat while watching the others.

As a whole I think DEKALOG is sth. very special, very unique... hard to rate the episodes but I'll try...

1 --> 9
2 --> 5
3 --> 8
4 --> 6
5 --> 8
6 --> 8
7 --> 8
8 --> 4
9 --> 10
10 --> 7

I wrote down the following ratings when I was watching the episodes. My ratings are a little low because I found it a bit slow sometimes (and in the case of Episode 5, I started to get a little bored). Yet despite these relatively low ratings, I'd give the entire work an 8.3, and I think it would just crack my top 100. I know that my overall rating sound extremely illogical considering that I didn't rank any of the films above an 8, but I think I rated the episodes harsher than I normally do with films. I also appreciated every episode more as it drew to its conclusion, and I had time to reflect on it afterwards. Similarly, I think the entire work is greater than the sum of its parts; it really is an amazing piece of work, even if it was a bit (only a little bit) of a chore to watch the whole film.

Episode 1: 8
Episode 2: 6
Episode 3: 5
Episode 4: 7
Episode 5: 4
Episode 6: 8
Episode 7: 7
Episode 8: 6
Episode 9: 8
Episode 10: 7

Episode 6 was my favorite, by the way, although I'm not exactly sure what we're supposed to get out of the ending.

I rated them as follows:

10: Only one episode: 5
9: 5 episodes: 1,4,7,9,10
8: 2 episodes: 2 and 6
7: 2 episodes: 3 and 8

OVERALL, as a whole: "Dekalog" gets a perfect score (10) in my book.

The best series I've ever seen. Thank you mr. Kieslowski.
