2 Star Rating

Review systems in critical magazines come in many different sizes. Marks out of 5, a score out of 10, a percentage.

Is this really insightful? Is a 3DS zombie game that gets 87% better than an art film that gets 4 out of 5?

A reader only wants to know: should I buy this?

All ratings systems should therefore be out of 2. 1 star means do not watch this movie / drive this car / eat at this restaurant. 2 stars means please do play this game / hire this man / sleep on this pillow.

Stu's 2 star recommended products:


Music Box with your own tunes


iPod in the Bath


Penny Pusher
