My Grading System

A+ = Masterpiece (I hold back on this one.) / A = Great. / A- = Really Good. / B+ = Good. / B = Decent (Serviceable). / B- = Flawed but okay (For those times there's something redeeming about the work). / C+ = Not very good (Skip it). C = Bad. / C- = Awful. / F = Complete Disaster (I hold back on this one too).

Note on Spoilers: I will try to avoid ruining a story by going into too much detail. But if I wish to include some revealing points to my analysis I will try to remember to add a separate spoiler paragraph.

Strickly Background (2007)

A mildly amusing film that follows a dozen actors working as Hollywood extras.   A lesson on the challenges of making it as an actor and should be watched by anyone dreaming of stardom.  It's also a celebration of an important but invisible part of television and movie entertainment.   Not to say that this is a must-see documentary, it doesn't have much going for it besides a few memorable scenes.   Grade: B.
