KINDACRITIC Search 1,109 titles…

How this works

Every number here was spoken aloud on a podcast and extracted by machine. This page says exactly how, and where it is uncertain.

Where the data comes from

778 episodes of the Kinda Funny Gamescast and In Review — 2,316 hours — were transcribed with speaker diarisation, and scores, rankings and the sentences around them extracted. Nothing is hand-entered and nothing is inferred: if a host did not say a number, no number is shown for them. That yielded 1070 titles, 546 scores and 72 franchise rankings.

Scores are shown as spoken

Kinda Funny used a 1–5 scale before May 2024 and 0–10 after. Individual scores are always displayed on the scale the critic actually used — a “four out of five” is never rendered as 8/10 beside someone's name. Normalisation happens only in an average. A 1–5 scale has a floor of 2/10 while 0–10 has a floor of 0, so a lifetime mean spanning the change is biased upward; per-era figures appear on every critic page.

What is not done

There is no metascore, no critic consensus and no gap-filling. Only 301 of 1070 titles carry a score at all — the film show ranks rather than rates, and those pages show a rank instead of an invented number.

Known problems in the data

6 scores use an impossible scale (out of 4, 4.6 and 100). Almost certainly transcription errors. They are shown as spoken, marked, and excluded from every average and from structured data:

16 scores could not be matched to a person — usually outside guests. They are shown under the name as spoken, unlinked.

560 media entries are excluded from this site. They came from ranked lists of things that are not works — villains, and in one episode a ranking of walkathon dinners — so “Chili's” and “Licker” are in the database but not published here.

Transcripts

Episode transcripts are machine-generated and contain errors, especially in titles and names. Speaker attribution comes from voiceprints where a host is enrolled and from conversational context otherwise; where the system could not identify a speaker the line reads “Unidentified speaker” rather than guessing a person.
