Infinity war got a low rating on rotten tomatoes!

Forgot Wonder woman 92% hhhhh that was shi$ movie

I agree, it deserved a lot closer to the audience rating of 91%...a minimum 88% imo.

Thor Ragnarok > Infinity War

Like who the hell ever uses rotten tomatoes to determine whether or not they should be interested in a movie?!

I mean, this "follow" generation can all go to hell!

Ratings tend to be worthless by themselves with no context. Expectations were high for this one, if it was the greatest movie Marvel had ever made it would JUST be living up to expectations. So there isn't going to be a bump for anyone (at least not in significant number) being pleasantly surprised by the movie. 83% IMO means it at least delivered what it promised.

Also a project like this tends to make enemies along the way. You have the "I'm sick of comic book movies" people, along with the "My favorite hero didn't get enough screen time" groups, just to name a few.

True, the majority of fans would have expected Infinity War to receive a higher rating; high 80’s at worst. Many, myself included, firmly believes it deserves over a 90% (its superb audience score says it all). But when you look at the bigger picture, its rating on RT is super impressive. I mean with everything Infinity War managed to accomplish, we should be glad it holds this rating even if we personally believe it should be higher. By this point it’s a safe bet we can trust Marvel Studios with their films. Infinity War, though, could have turned out to be a disaster. It’s a film that balances a large number of characters, it shifts between tones and visual aesthetics, and basically it has so much going on. This could’ve been a complete mess, and yet the Russos succeeded in juggling all of these different elements together.

It’s clear a number of critics and fans weren’t overly pleased with IW. Complaints range from certain characters not getting sufficient screen time to the film feeling overstuffed. Yes, I also sense a few critics out there are fed up with Marvel/CBMs and refuse to give them a fair shot. But although Infinity War truly delivered on the hype according to most, fact is it was too much for some to handle. I wouldn’t hold that against RT. Say what you want about RT but these days RT is seen as anything but a joke when it comes to movie scores (except maybe by *mostly* DCEU fans, haha). Sure, there are movies that hold questionable scores. Still, RT is by and large seen as a good indicator of what’s potentially good or mediocre. RT side, Infinity War’s score on the slightly more trusted Metacritic isn’t much better than all the MCU movies you mentioned. So, just take comfort in knowing that a huge film like Infinity War proved to be a gigantic success (including critically) and became a worldwide phenomenon.

Speaking of the last praised MCU movies, it seems counterproductive to discredit them. They’re all great films imho. Do I think Black Panther should not only be the highest rated Marvel movie but the highest rated superhero movie of all time? No. Do I find it better than Infinity War? Not by a long shot. How about the others? Well, IW beats them all except for Ragnarok which gives IW a run for its money in terms of character development, impact and structure. But truth is, in a handful of critics’ eyes these MCU films had fewer issues than IW supposedly did. And plus they had way less to work with (so to speak). The recent Ant-Man & The Wasp, though not as sublime as IW, I for one adore it just as much. Anyway, point is it doesn’t annoy me knowing that the Thanos epic didn’t score as high as Homecoming, Black Panther, etc. Infinity War had so much to prove and fortunately it turned out to be a beloved film.

At the end of the day, Marvel and the fanbase wins.

Apparently Disney didn’t pay the critics enough this time.

Nobody cares about Rotten tomatoes because their rotten
