CHRISTIAN MOVIE REVIEWS: SECRET rating system revealed

In the interest of full disclosure, here are my rating criteria for movies reviewed on K_Line Christian Online…

MOVIE RATING SYSTEM: (★★★★★)

Start with zero (0) out of five (5) possible STARS

  • Add one STAR if it looks like the movie was made by professional film makers–not 4 or 5 guys with a camcorder.
  • Add one STAR if the film has a story, theme or plot (optional for horror and/or zombie movies); or if the movie makes any sense.
  • Add additional STARS for special effects, acting, good moral message(s), realistic zombies, scariness, interesting theme or plot and the like.
  • Subtract STARS for extreme bad acting, COMPLETELY awful themes/messages, overall INCREDIBLE trashiness, graphic and persistent lewdness, and the like.

Is it a pretty small percentage, when compared to the time you spend asking God to do things for you? Study verses: Ephesians 3:14-21.
