ah, I see :) not liking something usually does not mean you find something decent. It's the same thing with saying you don't like a boy or a girl, that isn't a nice thing to say, haha! It means you dislike, really don't like something. Anyway, English...
I now understand your rating system.
I try not to be distracted by ratings. Ratings are always someone's opinion.
If a lot of people rate something high, it just means that lots of people have seen it (perhaps because of marketing) and like it.
I prefer to judge for myself. I usually make a decision based on the director (earlier films that I've seen), actor(s), story, et cetera
but that's just my strategy ;)
I make the same like you but i don't watch movies under the rating 6 usually and I like to have my opinion also and i really don't think that Jeff who lives at home deserve more ,for me it was a boring movie with pretty good actors with some good moments only that ,maybe you liked it but I can not add something what I did not like so much in my favorites list. I don't think it's that hard to understand what I mean.Many times I was disappointed with the movies that they have the rating under 6, than to waste my time I better give up on them and I dedicate my time to other movies that have lower chances to disappoint me.
sure, that's up to you. I usually also pick movies that I expect to like
but some movies that have low ratings can actually be quite enjoyable (if you go into them with the right mind set) I find a lot of movies with high ratings quite boring too ;)
