Question about English (US)
Is this English phrase incorrect?
"I'm wondering if I ~~ or not."
Actually, I wrote an English sentence, "I'm wondering if I watch this movie or not." on another app but a non native English speaker said it's not correct as an English sentence.
How should I re-write the sentence into a more natural/correct way?
Thank you in advance.

You need to use "should" there.
"I'm wondering if I should watch this movie or not."

@solanto Excuse me,
may I ask one more question?
Can I also write the sentence just like "I'm wondering if I should watch this movie." or should I use "or not" at the end?

@eaplshla Just know that you should not use "or not" in writing. It should only be used in speaking.
