Story: 0/4 (Terrible)
Characters: n/a
Dialog: n/a
Pacing: 0/4 (Terrible)
Cinematography: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Special effects/design: n/a
Acting: n/a
Music: n/a
Subjective Rating: 2/10 (Terrible, 0/4). I feel silly rating this. But I've always taken the approach of ignoring historical context as much as possible and judging a film based purely on my experience watching it. So, there it is. The first motion picture ever, one of the most important three seconds in the history of art - not exactly gripping.
Objective Rating (Average): 0.4/4 (Terrible)
