Funny how Tomatometer works: the more critics like a movie, the worse it is. The critics that give a movie a collective terrible score are usually outstanding. The only one everyone agreed on was Top Gun Maverick. Overall, though, critics are bought off like the rest of the gross, disgusting, woke media.

Yes, I usually pick my movies by watching the 180 degree opposite of what Rotten Tomatoes ranks as good. The recent movie "Nefarious" got 96% positive ratings from over 1K movie goers and 15 schlubs at rotten tomatoes gave it 33%.
I don't watch movies made after 2017 as a rule. Only a couple exceptions like Jesus Revolution. I don't want to support current Hollywood if I can help it. Go woke go broke.
Nothing much has changed with movie critics. I was a huge movie buff back in the 70's thru the early 2000's and critics & raters were frequently way off the mark even back then. In fact, the worse the movie review, the more I wanted to see it. At some point, I completely tuned out all critics. Back then, movie critics were actual people but nowadays, rotten tomatoes and other movie rating rags are run by a constant revolving door of basement dwellers.
At a certain point they will roll out a plate of doggie-doo and a bright eyed bushy tailed host will roundly proclaim it to be ambrosia. Although at this point the theater will be mostly empty....

Haven’t been to a movie since the lockdown. Just can’t stomach supporting them.
I support Angel Studios. They are putting out faith-filled movies and bypassing Hollywood.
We neither - for the past 10 years, I'd guess we've seen about 3-5 movies.
HOWEVER, we did go see Nefarious and it was literally the best movie I've seen ever. (I felt guilty giving AMC money, but it was worth it.)
I decided yesterday that I'm going to purchase DVD copies for all my family.
I’m very selective re: movies.
Top Gun Maverick was a thriller; wonderfully done.
Jesus Revolution was good.
I Can only Imagine, God’s Not Dead & others.
I want to support those trying to give us wholesome movies.
Totally agree!!!!! I watch movies just not at the theater. Don’t go on cruises either since they told me I was subhuman. Lol. Picked my battles🤷🏻♀️
It’s been years to never again for me.
I really like Nefarious and saw the same rating on Rotten Tomatoes. When I watched it I knew right away why the critics hated it.
I want to see Nefarious but the closest theater by me is over 2 hours away. Hopefully more theaters will show it.
Same!

NEFARIOUS is a must see!!
Amen sista!!!

Just like a kids book making the NYT best seller list. I know it’s going to be nothing an actual kid wants to hear
Yes, if the critics hate it, I’m likely to enjoy it. I noticed that personal trend decades ago.
