Guys I just walked out of Venom and I think it is the perfect tread to start this conversation. Now I enjoyed the HELL out of Venom. Is it a good movie? Meh not really, it does have A LOT of problems. Now should I give it a 5/5 star rating because of my enjoyment? Definitely not. Should I think abou the movie technicaly and give it a 1/5 star rating? Definitely not. Should it be just an overall sintesys? Therefore me giving it a 3/5 rating maybe? No! Because it doensnt reflect what I think of the film.

Guys. Movie is artistic work. Yes, hollywood productions are moved by money first and foremost, but it still remains an artistic piece.

So let me as you a question. You dont go to the museum and look at a painting and go "Thats a 7/10" right?. Thats just disrespect as far as Im concerned. With movies it should be no different.

Movies should be talked about, discussed. Not rated.

Anyway thats my 2 cents on it. What do you think about it?

I fully agree. If I give my opinion of a movie online, I never give it a number rating, I just don't believe in it.

I will only ever give my thoughts and my opinion, thats it. I never recommend or dissuade.

I never get why people seem to think it's their job to tell or not tell people to watch a movie. That's not how it's supposed to work.

And I am also astonished at people who go online and ask strangers if a movie is good or bad. All you will get is people's opinions.

If you fancy it, go watch it. It's not for others to tell you whether you should or not.

However, you can choose to take note of others opinions or not.
