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.

Side by Side (2012)

Keanu Reeves co-produces a documentary from Christopher Kenneally that examines the transition from film to digital.   Many directors and actors are interviewed, there’s an excellent understanding of the history of these formats and where we are today.  That said it’s only interesting if you like film making.  If you’re not a film maker, don’t care how films are made, then skip this talking heads, clip reel that ultimately celebrates the inevitable: digital’s domination and takeover.  Grade: B+
