How we grade film and TV

Criticism comes down to similar taste – do you agree or disagree. Whether you see eye to eye or not with Sound & Picture, we take our reviews seriously. Our goal is to offer critical views of how a film, television or online show succeeds or fails in the areas of story, cinematography, sound, picture editing, and visual effects.

Each section will be judged in terms of its appeal, believability, and effectiveness on a scale of 0.1 to 5.0, with 5.0 being the highest. The average of these denominators will factor toward its Final Verdict determining if it's worth your time and/or money.

Film Grading Scale is based 0.1-5.0, 5.0 being the highest.
Final Verdict is based on overall score.
-Don’t Bother (0 - 2.4)
-Rent It (2.5 - 3.4)
-Theater Worthy (3.5 - 5)
