My Ratings

Hello!  Today, I’m going to write about something a little different than usual.  I’m going to review some movies/TV shows that I’ve watched.  And before you get started on the ratings, I’d like you all to know that I don’t have television.  I watch almost everything on Netflix, unless I watch it in the movie theaters.  So, I’m going to start my rating list with:

The Goonies 

-10 out of 10

There’s swearing, inappropriate and fat jokes, and stupid people in eighties hairstyles (I really don’t care for the eighties).  It’s about a family that really does love each other, but pretends not to because it’s “cool”.

The plotline is that the main character and his “buddies” find an old treasure map.  They decide to find the treasure because they’re poor and are going to sell their house.  They set off to find it and run into some thieves who are after it, too.  The main characters somehow manage to get to the treasure first, and they get it.  After some trouble, they get back home with some treasure and live happily ever after.

War Horse

3 out of 10

If you enjoy laughing at melodrama, watch War Horse.  It’s supposed to be dramatic and sad, but they messed up terribly.  They overdid the drama to the point that my big brother was trying not to have a fit of laughter when watching it in the theater. He didn’t want to be rude. (At least, I hope that was his intention lol!)  War Horse was directed by Steven Spielberg, who needs to steer well away from melodrama from now on.  But the photography was good and the horses were beautiful.  Spielberg also made my least favorite movie, The Goonies.

The Office

9 out of 10

I think that this comedy TV show is one of the funniest things that I’ve ever watched.  It’s not great for kids 10 and under though.  It can be inappropriate at times.  We have to fast-forward some parts, and we even had to skip a few episodes due to its inappropriateness.  It really could cut down on some of the jokes, too.  But the characters are loveable and adorable in their own obnoxious way, and you just wanna keep watching it all night.

Mr. Smith Goes to Washington

9 out of 10

This movie is wonderful.  It’s acceptable for children of 7 and up because it would be boring to the younger ones.  It’s about a guy who is appointed to fill a place for a guy that either had died or was fired… I can’t remember which.  He’s just a normal guy at the first glance, but when he goes into office, he changes positively everything.  There’s betrayal, lies, and love in Mr. Smith’s life as an office member.

Tangled

9 out of 10

It’s a movie that is great for the whole family on movie night.  It’s fun, quirky, and never gets old.  It’s not the best movie for boys, but my brothers didn’t hate it.  They gave it a rating of 5 stars out of 10.

Dr. Who

20 out of 10

Read my other blog post ‘The Most Awesome Show IN THE WORLD’.  I think that the title pretty much sums it up, though.

So, that’s pretty much it!  Thanks for reading and have a good day! J
