New Reviews

The Radio Times has given Congo a review of 1 star thereby unknowingly setting a bench mark for the rest of the films they review. No film can be less than 1 star therefore every film shown on televison, the Radio Times considers to be equal or superior quality to Congo. In many cases this system works, but a lot of the time the system collapses. For example the Radio Times has given ‘Raiders of the Lost Ark’ a review of 5 stars, making it 5 times superior than Congo. In this case I would agree. But they have also given ‘Secrets and Lies’ a 5 star review. This film is in no way 5 times better, nor equal to Congo.

I have taken this as the basis of my review system, using Congo as a bench mark. All reviews have been simplified.

So tell me...is it better than Congo?
