Loved it? 3-4-5 stars?


I don't think people completely understand the star system. How can you love a film and give it five out of ten stars. I gave this one two and I'm not even going to lie. Lucy's bikini got 1 and her shorts received the other. Pretty terrible and there is a 30 minute section where literally nothing happens. If you get past that, it's all downhill.

I've noticed this before too. It depends on the person voting basically. Some say if you enjoy a movie, it should be given a good score (7-10). To others, a movie can be bad but still enjoyable (1-5), so you can give it a low score and still say you liked it.

That would be the worst. If anything, Netflix needs to add some nuance to its rating system. There isn't enough room in the 1-5 scale. There is a big different between 2 and 3 stars. It bothers me that I have to dislike or like something. You aren't allowed to be neutral. There are lot of 5/10 films out there, but Netflix doesn't seem to think so.

2/10 for me. I didn't completely hate it, but I don't think I'd ever feel the desire to watch it again either.
