To understand my ratings I consider 5 an okay to kill some time, 6 above average, high 6's to 7 well worth a watch, 8 - 9 Excellent Movie. 10 Reserved for the very few.IMO:
Blazing Saddles, Airplane, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, The Godfather etc
I will not low score a rom com for being predictable.
I will not low score an action / adventure / thriller for being unrealistic.
Hoping to help you not skip something that you might have enjoyed.

The Nest (2020)
Way improper classification caused a poor viewing experience
It would be impossible for me to rate this file. My wife and I chose to watch this film looking for thriller. It turned out to be anything but. If I had to classify this film, I would call it psychological character study. As this is not what we expected to see, we spent the whole time wondering when the thriller elements would begin. When the ending credits started, we thought it was a complete waste of time and regretted not picking something else. If it was properly classified, it might be an excellent film. It might rate a 7 or more. If you expected a thriller as we did this would rate a 0 or 1 which is something I would never do.
Fair Play (2023)
Miss characterized but very good.
This was not a psychological thriller as described. This was a very good psychological character study. The actors beautifully and intensely portrayed the decline of a relationship. The fact that the relationship went from so wonderful to downright scary coupled with the use of "intensity rising soundtrack" could possibly explain the physiological thriller designation. I am by no means a prude, but I would advise to pay attention to the R rating. There was enough nudity and sex in it that I would not feel comfortable watching with the grand kids in the house. Well worth the watch. I hope it helps you decide.
