How Allan Judges Movies

Allan has a very scientific method (it isn’t scientific) to judge movies. The final score is out of 100, and ratings range from two red thumbs down to two gold thumbs up. He haphazardly breaks his scoring into six categories:

- Gut Feeling: How’d He Feel Right After Watching
- Overall Performances
- Directing/Production
- Script
- Music
- Everything Else

How The Scores Work

So for every film, Allan will use the above sections to give his input, take the numerical scores from each section, throw it in his secret algorithm, and spit out two different results:
1. A score from 0-100. Pretty simple idea. It’s a grade, and that grade determines number two:
2. Thumbs up or down. This spans six options: Two Red Thumbs Down (0-15), One Red Thumbs Down (16-35), One Thumbs Down (36-50), One Thumbs Up (51-69), One Gold Thumbs Up (70-89), and Two Gold Thumbs Up (90-100).

You get the idea: Red thumbs bad, gold thumbs good.

So that’s a peek behind the curtain of what Allan cares about. Thanks for reading!
