I'm sure we've all often wondered just what Mr. Maltin has rated a particular game we had the opportunity to see.

In order to quell that curiosity, we present.

 

For the first time, you'll now be able to check to see the exact rating he gave to the movie. In order to help you understand his ratings, we provide the following key. Please imbibe slowly.

 

 

You'll find many of these in the listings that follow because Mr. Maltin doesn't rate "Made for Telelvision" movies. He may have reviewed these films, but he hasn't designated them with a star rating.
The most henious of his ratings. A bomb usually means avoid at all costs, but you'll find that these are sometimes some of the most enjoyable of our games.
Slighty better than bottom of the barrel. These are what you usually get when people know better than making a movie on a subject, but they continue anyway.
Slightly below average. This is our bread and butter. We have more of these in our catalogue of movies than any other rating.
Mearly average. We see quite a few of these in our parts. Expect medium pain.
OK. Not super cool, but not total trash either. These are usually the best that Hollywood can put out unless they end up with a fluke or something.
This is probably the best that we'll ever happen to HG and that's only on a special occasion. These are upper-upper crust.
The pinacle of what man can produce in the motion picture industry. A joy to behold. We don't watch these here.
