Films I Rate 8/10

__Welcome back to my series of posts in which I list all the films I've seen, grouped by rating. This time, we're looking at the movies I've given a score of 8/10, which means I think they're very good, just not quite great. There was a time when this was by far my most common rating, but 6/10 has caught up with it at an alarming rate lately. In fact, they're pretty much neck and neck, but 6/10 is just barely ahead at the moment. Of all 2,186 films I've rated up to now, the 8/10 ones currently number 376, or about 17.2% of the grand total.
