The Mr. Cranky Movie Rating Scale:
1     Almost tolerable
2 bombs     Consistently annoying
3 bombs     Will require therapy after viewing
4 bombs     As good as a poke in the eye with a sharp stick
Ka-BOOM!     So godawful that it ruptured the very fabric of space and time
  with the sheer overpowering force of its mediocrity.

Nuke     Proof that Jesus died in vain.
