2007 Films:

Being an anally retentive pseudo librarian, it is quite natural for me to keep lists all over the place of things I have done or seen or need to do etc etc. As I see quite a lot of films, it has become useful for me to keep a list of pictures that I have seen with ratings, this way I can use imdb.com to search out other films I might want to rent. Also, I can compile lists of films that I can happily recommend to friends.

Key:
* - abysmal ** - poor with some redeeming features *** - average **** - really good, but not a classic ***** - brilliant

(r) - repeat viewing
