FILM RATINGS & SCREENING HISTORY

Explore all the films screened from our first season in 2010 to the current year, along with the StarBox ratings as voted by our members.

Note: The StarBox rating system was introduced in August 2015, so films screened prior to that date are not rated.

We use the StarBox rating system developed for Victorian film societies by the FVFS* – members rate the film from 1 to 5 stars, dropping a token into the appropriate slot in the ‘StarBox’. Votes are tallied and averaged to provide the final score. * Federation of Victorian Film Societies.
