Welcome to my Movie Rating Database

This database is for:
(1) Rating Movies,
(2) Keeping track of every movie I've seen,
(3) Comparing my ratings to those of others,
(4) Logging every time I watch a movie, and
(5) Collecting some interesting statistics.

There are currently 3879 ratings in this database, which is incomplete: I estimate I've seen a few hundred more.

My ratings reflect my odd personal sensibilities and sentimentalities. They are not final: I change my mind and opinions frequently.

My top movies (rated 8-10) can be seen here.

Interpreting my ratings:
