It's simple, really. My score on a scale of 100 (begrudgingly, but seemingly necessary) compared with Metacritic (my preferred aggregator) followed by a review. My tastes run from classics to genre films, with a healthy dollop of art house, foreign and documentary thrown in the mix.
Here's how my scale of 100 works. And I'm coming up with these off the top of my head:
90-100: An unparalleled masterpiece (ex. Lawrence of Arabia 100)
80-90: Truly exceptional (ex. Fight Club 90)
70-80: Really good or noteworthy (ex. Evil Dead 80)
60-70: Nobody's perfect (ex. Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom 70)
50-60: A really nice scene or two (ex. Sicko 55)
0-50: Degrees of loathing (ex. Halloween: Resurrection 20)

due to a Netflix Queue hovering around 450 titles.
