Movies I’ve watched and want to watch.
I liked,
were just ok,
I didn’t like.
Naturally, this isn’t comprehensive, and it’s biased toward my taste. If I mark
a movie , I may still think it’s good overall, but
just doesn’t match my own personal taste, and vice versa.
Also see books, games, and other lists.
