Its really difficult to compare them on any of those variables, especially action and stunts .

Storyline, certainly, but if I'm comparing My sisters keeper with Terminator 4: Salvation. It gets kind of ridiculous.

I compare movies on, personal enjoyment factor I suppose. Its like if you list any two movies I can tell you which I like/enjoyed more in a heart beat. When you start asking why, I suppose it can become more difficult.

i mostly look for sensible storyline, acting, stunts

How much I enjoy watching it

I tend to compare and contrast movies based on how similar and different they are. Then, I give them all a rating which will also differentiate them in some quasi-quality manner. However, I may be misunderstanding the "question".

By length.

Some say size isn't important, but that's probably because they aren't packing much...movie-wise.

Reasonable expectation plays a role for me.

its a weighted system.

For example:

I expect more from Ridley Scott and Russell Crowe than what Robin Hood was.

Wrong.

It's by how much money the movie made in box office, that truly defines how good it is.

example : Avatar is $2,714,390,483 better than Goodfellas.

really, that was neg rep worthy?

wow.

I expected it to be pants, probably for all the reason you thought you'd enjoy it. It's Ridley Scott, it's Russell Crowe, it's Robin Hood.

Like this:

Children of Men > Blade Runner

The better question is why you're still alive. I thought you'd killed yourself.
