Ratings are on a 100-point scale, each wrung of ten rating points forming a "tier" of sorts. Each rating represents my own personal enthusiasm for the film in question. I make no pretense to some form of objectivity.

Films are sorted by their release year—which may not always be the same year as their full theatrical release—and then ranked by rating. There is also a compiled list of all the films ranked by rating.

I'm only listing movies that I have rated on the 100-point scale. I didn't adopt this approach until June of 2024, so anything listed here is something I have seen since then. (I do not re-rate films unless I've just watched them again.)

I also keep a Film Diary where you can find my thoughts on each film I watch.
