System 2

This is a minor modification to the questions from System 1. I considered calling it 1A, but decided that it's better to make sure each system is distinct. Even changing the wording of a question ought to merit it being considered a new system, because even small changes in wording can affect the answers we give.
  1. Would you watch this movie again?
  2. Did you connect with the movie on a personal level?
  3. Did you feel the emotional impact that you think the film intended?
  4. Do you think the movie satisfies what you consider to be the goals of cinema?
  5. Do you think it satisfies what you consider to be the goals of art?
  6. Do you think the movie's artistic intent is interesting?
  7. Do you think those intentions are well executed?
  8. Do you agree with the theme or moral you feel the film tries to convey?

System 1

The first system I've formulated to evaluate a movie is straightforward 8 yes-or-no questions arranged in order of importance. The questions are as follows:
  1. Would you watch this movie again?
  2. Did you feel the emotional impact that you think the film intended?
  3. Do you think the movie satisfies what you consider to be the goals of cinema?
  4. Do you think it satisfies what you consider to be the goals of art?
  5. Do you think the film's artistic intentions are interesting?
  6. Do you think the film properly execute its artistic intentions?
  7. Do you think the film's technical intentions are interesting?
  8. Do you think the film properly execute its technical intentions?
