It’s a rating of what percentage of critics think it’s worth watching, not a rating of how good the movie is on an objective scale.

That’s a useful tool.

A movie can be fantastic but only for a very limited audience. A movie can be ‘ok’ but a fun watch for everyone.

Also remember that the older the movie, the fewer reviews tend to be available, especially for foreign films. Additionally all reviews are products of their time.

I’m sure Covid was part of that but honestly it wouldn’t surprise me. I think it’s a fun show but it doesn’t seem like it’s been very big for them.

Try Avenue 5. Just a comedy, lots of fun.

Veep is fantastic. It always has a dark edge of cynicism. But it reads very different now due to world events. Still love it though.

But HBO is really known for their big dramas. It’s not everything they do, but it’s a lot of what’s famous.

That was my first AmEx but I got it less than 5 years ago. I had no idea they went back that far.

> Curious question: When did AMEX change from everything being due at the end of 30 days to making payment like a regular card?

Depends on the kind of card. Some like the Blue Cash series let you carry a balance. The classics like green and gold don’t. So make sure you know which one you have.

> Is there anything else I should know before swapping my main use from Visa to AMEX?

Know your benefits! If you get better rewards on one kind of purchase (say gas or grocery) then use that card for that kind of purchase.

Also if your card has AmEx offer support, keep an eye on them. Some of them can be really good, especially if you were going to shop there anyway.

Example: I’ve seen an offer for a normal grocery chain (think Kroger/Safeway/etc) for a $20 refund after spending $100 in groceries over multiple purchases. It was so easy to do that in the 90 days or whatever it was and you basically got 20% for using your AmEx.

> They didn’t. You have to use the pay over time feature

Not entirely true. It depends on the card. So the classic cards like the green, gold, and platinum must be paid off every month in the traditional AmEx style unless you use pay over time.

But they have a few cards, like Blue Cash Everyday, that work exactly like a Visa or MC and let you carry a balance.

So it’s important to know exactly which card you own.
