Ultimate Movie Rankings: Top 100 Movies

Originally posted 7/31/2019.

The website says UltimateMovieRankings.com has rated more than 20,000 movies, each with a minimum of five sources, such as the Internet Movie Database, Rotten Tomatoes, and MetaCritic. The site published its list of best review movies in 2015 (article isn’t dated, but that’s when the earliest comments on the post appear).
