Final Movie Rankings of 2016

     Each year, I give myself till the Oscars to review all of the movies of the previous year.  In 2016, I reviewed nearly fifty films to cap off my most prolific year as a reviewer.  In rank order, from bottom to top, here is each movie I reviewed, followed by the score I gave it.  Two notes are necessary before you read my reviews.  You might find some inconsistencies in scores from previous reviews.  I am also willing to defend all of these scores adamantly, so please hit me with your angriest comments.  This final list is my final evaluation of each film.  Sometimes I watch a movie much later, and my opinion will totally change on it.  Since my first viewing of many of these films, my opinion on what I would rate them has probably changed.  Secondly, many of these posters I handpicked for the image sections are all amazing posters.  One of my favorite things about the movies is the posters, and these posters are all some of my favorites for each respective movie. Many are fan made, but you can hardly tell, and I want to give these amazing graphic artists a real showing to all of the three people that read my reviews.  So, here we go, my final sound off on the Movies of 2016.
