\n4\/5 \u2014 Very Good
\n3\/5 \u2014 Bordering on Mediocrity
\n2\/5 \u2014 Pretty Bad
\n1\/5 \u2014 Terrible
\n0\/5 \u2014 The Worst of the Worst<\/strong><\/p>\n

Those two ratings are reserved for special films both ends of the spectrum. I have found that most of my ratings, for movies at least, are in the 3.5 – 4.0 range and Blu-ray audio\/video around 4.0 as I haven’t encountered too many bad transfers.’<\/p>\n
