Welcome to Reel Money!

Welcome to Reel Money, where we tell you which movies in theaters and on DVD are worth your hard-earned cash, and which ones you shouldn't even let your friends pay to see.
Here's how it works: Using the average movie price of seven dollars, we rate movies not with thumbs or stars, but with actual monetary values, telling you whether a movie is worth paying for, and more importantly worth seeing again or owning. Generally speaking, the Final Total is the amount we feel a movie is worth in terms of paid viewings and purchase, for the lifetime of the film. In other words, a seven-dollar movie is probably worth seeing once, a twenty-seven dollar movie is worth seeing and owning, and so forth:
A Handy Chart
$0: A Zero-Money Movie. The worst of the worst. Don't even get this to satisfy your curiosity. Just move on.
$1-6: Well, if there's nothing else in the Redbox, then okay...
$7-10: Something's worth the price of admission. Once.
$10-20: Might be worth a second look, though maybe not immediately.
$20-40: Own-worthy, the only questions are when and what format.
$40-60: You've already seen this two or three times in theaters. Now go rush to buy the Blu-Ray on the Tuesday it's available.
$60+: If next year DVD/Blu-Ray were extinct, this film is worth buying again for whatever format comes next. Forever. That good.
So, stay awhile. Peruse our reviews, and enjoy our videos. We're always working to make this better, so feel free to contact us at reelmoneyreviews@gmail.com with any thoughts or comments! Make sure to tell your friends, and remember that at Reel Money, we pay so you won't have to!

  1. Hello,
    Nice blog i like it
    Movies are also a source of inspiration to many. There are many people in this world who have been inspired by movies to do something big in their lives. For example, movie based on biographies of great people have influenced people to attain the same pinnacle in their lives. I still remember my friend who after watching the movie "The Mahatma" starring Ben Kingsley was forced to change her general attitude towards life.
