Black Sheep is Seeing Stars!

Sheldon is a star in the sky

Each Black Sheep review includes a unique “Sheep” rating. If you are wondering what each of these ratings means, here’s a little breakdown for you.

5 SHEEP … Excellent! Brilliant! I loved it! See this movie!!

4 SHEEP … Very good. Solid entertainment. Mostly memorable.

3 SHEEP … Good but not great … Some problems but still enjoyable … Not bad, if you will.

2 SHEEP … Some redeeming qualities but watch at your own risk. Passable perhaps, but barely.

1 SHEEP … You suck! Or as Sheldon might say, “Bah-ah-ah-ah-d!”

Also, for your reading enjoyment, and to help you contextualize this a little further, here is a sampling of 25 of my favourite films, each of which earned a 5-Sheep rating …
