Dante's Movie Emporium and Ratings

[Dante Alighieri]

So I started this list on August 26th of 2012 and every movie I've watched since then I've written down and given a rating. I don't expect people to be interested in it, but maybe if you're looking for a movie to watch or something. I'll still be adding to it as I watch movies.

I plan to add some foot notes to some of the movies that stand out or deserve recognition.

Silent Hill                  

Rated: 7​

I know a lot of people didn't like this movie or any of the others of the series. Honestly I just liked it because I enjoyed the game and thought it was cool to see somethings from the game. The woman who runs the church deserves the death she gets, I hated that *****.

Prometheus                    

Rated: 9​

Chernobly Diaries             

Rated: 7​

Cabin in the Woods           

Rated: 9​

Another movie that a lot of people didn't like. I thought this movie was extremely funny, to be honest. It was considered a horror movie on IMDB, but I considered it to be a comedy.

Saints and Soldiers 2       

Rated: 6​

The first Saints and Soldiers was a good movie. This one was a let down.

A Beautiful Mind              

Rated: 10​

Russel Crowe proving that he can master any movie role.

Troy                         

Rated: 8​

Rock of Ages                  

Rated: 3​

My Way                        

Rated: 9.5​

This is a Korean movie. It rivals war movies such as Saving Private Ryan and other big named ones. I thought it was incredible and any war movie fan should watch it. You see the most all of the major theaters of war during WW2.

Act of Valor           

Rated: 7​

Decent movie for a mindless action flick. Other than that it doesn't have much else going for it.

Age of Heroes                 

Rated: 8​

Drag Me to Hell              

Rated: 4​

Stupid, stupid movie. No one should willingly watch this.

The Front Line               

Rated: 10​

Another Korean war movie. It has a very dark/macabre style to it and it can be extremely sad (at least I though so). I recommend it to any war movie fan. If you watch this be ready for your favorite character to die. You'll know what I mean.

American Psycho               

Rated: 8​

Naked Lunch                   

Rated: 9​

An extremely well movie all around. Another that I recommend to everyone.

Rated: 8​

Sadly enough, this is the remake. I gave it a high rating because I thought the sets and character design was awesome.

The Hunger Games              

Rated: 4​

I hated this movie and I hate the main actress. It had an awesome concept but sadly it was made as a kids movie. IMHO

Rated: 6​

 

[Vermillion_Hawk]

You know, I actually liked Age of Heroes as well, never saw why it got bad ratings, aside from the somewhat-abrupt ending.

 

[BenKenobi]

If I may, either attach year of shooting to each movie or link them to their IMDB page. I was kinda scared by seeing 8 with Total Recall, you know. But then I thought: "Oh...hey, it is the Arnie one."

 

[Adorno]

Couldn't agree more on 'Rock of Ages' 

 

[Untitled.]

You haven't watched Fight Club since August? Shame on you.

 

[Vovolov]

6 for the Shawshank Redemption is really weird, considering that puts it on the same level as a Resident Evil film according to your chart. Should clearly be at least an 8.

 

[BenKenobi]

Maybe he adds the "overhyped modifier". In that case, 6/10 is more than enough.

 

[Kevlar]

I ought to start a list as well, I would end up with a much lower rating for a lot of movies.

 

[Dante Alighieri]

I ought to start a list as well, I would end up with a much lower rating for a lot of movies.

You should start a list, you'll probably find it cool to be able to look back on all the movies you've watched.

6 for the Shawshank Redemption is really weird, considering that puts it on the same level as a Resident Evil film according to your chart. Should clearly be at least an 8.

I didn't really like the movie, to be honest. I've seen that it gets rated extremely high all over the internet. Some places even consider it to be the best movie of all time.
