How I rate:

The most important factor in my ratings is how much I enjoy whatever I'm reviewing. That being said, I try to keep the product's quality in mind. Even when I don't like something, I may give it a high rating because of things like beautiful cinematography, excellent writing, and production. Similarly, things I really enjoy may receive a lower rating due to a scarcity of those things. This is because I consider individual elements (such as the story and characters) before considering the big picture.
