I watch very few movies but when I do, my opinon of it generally the opposite of the critic's review on Rotten Tomatoes.
II hate bitching about RT scores but some of them are just staggering to me.
28 years later is one of the worst movies I have ever seen and it is highly rated on RT.
IMDB's aren't better. I had noticed at least one movie that had pretty bad ratings despite being pretty good - the only movie adaptation of a Carl Hiaasen novel, which does the novel full justice imho. I guess the haters were disappointed Demi Moore fans?
And it's usually pretty predictable what sort of stuff gets the really high ratings; anything from 8.0 upwards has to be filtered for fandom.
IMDB’s are worse.
