What's wrong with Rotten Tomatoes?


Why 19% RT?

reply

It's not 10% bad.

Hell, this film is better than Transformers or Spider-Man from last year.

rotten tomatoes is becoming less relevant thanks to it's 1 or 100 rating system. This movie is a D compared to every movie, and a high B compared to other action films released in the last 10 years. The current crop of reviewers on rt seem to have an agenda, if it is a lol comedy, horror, or action, a 50 is the best possible rating.

reply

Lol...nobody's got an agenda dude. They just call em like they see em. Although to agree that we can't take RT percentage like a test grade...it is so relative to expectation and many other factors

Well, it's not just tomatoes. Any rotten food is bad for you.

Most of the time I wonder what's wrong with ordinary movie lovers asking for a general judgment to match their personal preference. If you want a proper fair rating, do highly consider the critics because they are the experienced ones. We have to admit that many of us are not quite skilled to judge properly. Creativity is required in different categories involving a movie, not overdone material. You are given the freedom to give a personal rating, but do not expect the rest to accompany you in the same level ;)

The problem a lot of us have is the 11% rating for a middle of the road action movie. 30% to 60% and no one would complain, but this thing is rated as low as several sandler films, when it isn't that bad!

reply

Now at 9% !!! WTF can't believe it's that bad .....

reply

Hanging at an 11%, wow thought this was going to be better than last one, it seems they made the mistake by keeping Megaton instead of going back to Morel. Still, I doubt the movie is *that* bad, but then again I haven't seen it yet.

Critics just hate themselves. They compare this to the second one. Third one better than second good movie not going to win Oscars though.
