<\/a>Full Price<\/span> – <\/strong>The highest rating we can give for a movie currently playing in a theater.\u00a0 This means that you should do whatever you have to do in order to see this movie as soon as possible. You may have to deal with crowds and pay a higher price, but it will be worth it. Just go see it! Now!<\/p>\n<\/a>Matinee<\/span> –<\/strong> You should definitely go see this movie in a nice first-run theater, but it may not be worth a full price ticket or the hassle of putting up with a crowd. Go to a matinee to save a few dollars or wait a few weeks after the film’s release to let the crowds thin out a bit.<\/p>\n<\/a>Discount Theater<\/strong> <\/span>–<\/strong> Don’t spend too much on this movie. Though it deserves to be seen on a big screen, it’s not something you need to rush out to see. Wait for a discount or dollar theater in your area to start showing this before thinking about going to see it.<\/p>\n<\/a>Rental<\/span> –<\/strong> Wait until this movie is released on home video. This includes disc or on-demand rentals. This movie will probably only really be interesting to fans of a certain genre, actor, director, etc. It’s worth a few dollars and the effort to seek it out but it probably shouldn’t be near the top of your watch list.<\/p>\n<\/a>Streaming<\/span> –<\/strong> Our lowest rating. If you happen to see this movie on any of your flat-rate streaming services you might want to give it a watch, but don’t spend any extra money or time seeking this one out. There are plenty of other movies out there that deserve your time more than this one.<\/p>\nMovie Quality<\/span><\/h2>\n
<\/a>Good<\/span> –<\/strong> A movie that is well made, has a good story, or is otherwise remarkable in some way. Though this movie might not be to everyone’s tastes, there is no denying that it is a good movie. It has value and critical merit in a specific way that everyone should be able to appreciate.<\/p>\n
