>If someone isn't sure how they feel about a movie, why is it a benefit to have them spew their half-formed thoughts into a like/dislike rating? That's pretty harsh. I've watched plenty of movies that I enjoyed and would give a thumbs up but aren't sure whether it should be a 3 or 4 star movie. There's movies I love but consider too flawed to give 5 stars. And I find little difference between 1 and 2 stars other than the level of regret for wasting my time. Overall I rarely bother rating things on Netflix because it just doesn't feel worth it. So they get nothing out of me, whereas with a thumbs up or down I am more likely to chime in.
