Top 250 wrap-up, part 6 of 20

Over the last three years, I’ve watched my way through the IMDb’s Top 250. Now I’m ranking those 314 movies (math is hard) from worst to best according to my “objective rating” system. And as a token adjustment for my glaring biases in grading the movies, ties are broken by favoring the ones I liked least.

Part 6 of 20: 2.4/4 (Okay)

#252. Grindhouse, Robert Rodriguez & Quentin Tarantino, 2007. Currently off the IMDb's list.

#251. Toy Story 2, John Lasseter, Ash Brannon & Lee Unkrich, 1999. Currently off the list.

#250. The Professional, Luc Besson, 1994. Currently #35.

#249. The Sting, George Roy Hill, 1973. Currently #98.

#248. Infernal Affairs, Wai-keung Lau & Alan Mak, 2002. Currently #231.

#247. Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels, Guy Ritchie, 1998. Currently #173.

#246. Pan's Labyrinth, Guillermo del Toro, 2006. Currently #75.

#245. The Celebration, Thomas Vinterberg, 1998. Currently #222.

#244. The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari, Robert Wiene, 1920. Currently off the list.

#243. Tae Guk Gi: The Brotherhood of War, Je-gyu Kang, 2004. Currently off the list.

#242. The Green Mile, Frank Darabont, 1999. Currently #85.



There's not a single movie in this bunch that I feel strongly about, one way or the other. Weird.
