Written by Eric, Patrick, Scott

First Posted: January 19th, 2003

2002 was a record year for ticket sales and box office grosses.  We at Three Movie Buffs certainly did our part to help, having seen 85 different movies released in 2002.  Judging strictly by the number of stars given, the most enjoyed movie by all three of us was Spider-man.  The movie all three of us enjoyed the least, was Reign of Fire.

Individually, Patrick gave 4 stars to 36% of all the movies he saw in 2002, Scott gave 4 stars to 25%, while Eric gave 4 stars to only 14%.  At the same time, Eric only gave 2 movies just 1 star, a full 81% of the movies he saw received either 2 or 3 stars.  Where as Patrick gave 80% of the movies he saw either 3 or 4 stars, and Scott gave 78% of the movies he saw either 3 or 4.

Below is a list of all movies released in 2002 that were seen by one or more of the Three Movie Buffs.  They are listed in order from best to worst based upon the average amount of stars received for each movie.
