*thanks IMDB, an awesome source to refer to.
Out of scores on LAN and then there are recos from friends with all different tastes (Three to Teeth and lot many in between), IMDB does make sorting really easy. Yes there would be movies I would have rated higher and vice-versa but a rule of the thumb that works most of the time is- ‘any movie with a 7 and above rating is worth my time’. I tried Rotten Tomatoes (takes a lot of time to load as compared to IMDB)but one credible rating agent is enough and i would stick with IMDB for better interface.
