Here is your window to some of the best movies in the world, in my perspective.
The following ratings are not by a trained movie critic, but by as passionate movie buff. So, if the ratings reflect anything, it reflects my taste. In general, I tend to like movies with good stories, powerful but subtle dialog, good music that’s not conspicuous, acting that’s not overly dramatic and stories that “could have been true”. I thought of putting it together both as record for my own sake and to share a list of movies with those who may share my taste. I welcome comments and suggestions.
This page is being revamped and will be fully functional in a while. As of now I only have a list of movies with my rating, and no reviews. Apologies for the inconvenience.
