Weekly Peeple’s Poll Results for February 24, 2020

Another not great week for new movies. Call of the Wild did pretty well. (I have it an A in my review, partly for sentimental reasons.) The Peeple gave Call of the Wild a respectable 8.0 After-movie rating, up 0.9 points from the 7.1 Expectation-rating. That’s not going to win any awards, but it’s a solid showing. Besides […]
