Neutral is between good and bad. Sometimes it's a good movie but you didn't enjoy it. Sometimes it's a bad movie but you enjoyed it. And sometimes it's a so-so movie.
Personally, I have a problem with stars rating. A restaurant with 1 star is a good restaurant. The same for hotels. But a movie with 1 star ? Is it a good or a bad movie ?
I've never understood how we're supposed to rate with stars. Is there a consensus ? Or everyone just use the system with his own interpretation ?
You are right, I like what you said, every one like the movie in his own way....

For the reasons that I've explained, I don't want to give up our system of smileys. But it stroke me today, that we could add a plus (+) or a minus (-) to the smileys, making the rating system 3 times more accurate.
This way we could rate good+ a movie that we hesitated to rate very good, and good- a movie that we hesitated to rate neutral.
I've added this feature to my todo list. It's in the top 10
Also, 3 x 7 = 21 => when the import feature is available (also in my top 10), it'll be straightforward to import the ratings from programs with a scale of 20, or a scale of 10, or a scale of 5.
