Critique

Our selves are reflected in the films we watch. So to critique a film, is to delve inside the self and say, “why didn’t he just call the police,” or, “she should have checked her coat earlier for tracking devices.”

Welcome to the judges form. This is the only place you can submit your scores for the films! One submission per film, only.

Please don’t rate everything a 10. Remember not only to judge a film against itself but against the other films as well. Be sure to make comments. We don’t like people who don’t make comments.
