Mine looks like this (and I use stars):

"Star Trek" (****)
"Watchmen" (****)
"Knowing" (****)
"Drag Me to Hell" (****)
"Taken" (****)
"X-Men Origins: Wolverine" (***1/2)
"Monsters vs. Aliens" (***1/2)
"The International"(***1/2)
"Fast & Furious" (***)
"Race to Witch Mountain" (***)
"Push" (**1/2)
"Hannah Montana: The Movie" (**)
"Terminator Salvation" (*1/2)

Think it's a testament to the near-awfulness of "Terminator Salvation" if it gets a lower grade than "Hannah Montana: The Movie." You know? :P
