Rotten Tomatoes/Critical Reception Thread

Yeah, RT is bugging.

But if that 96% with 60+ reviews is true that’s fantastic!

 

[Jekecy]

Hmm 73 on Metacritic seems very low for my expectation. After that 96% with 8.5 rating after 71 reviews of RT, I expect Meta to be around 87 or 88 at early stage

MetaCritic scores always tend to average lower, even for the most popular films.

Just take a look at scores of MCU movies for a good idea. Films rarely get in the 80s.

 

[StraightSix]

It’s 91% after 118 reviews

 

[Spider-Aziz]

Where are you guys seeing 96% with 71 reviews?

I'm still only seeing 16 reviews.

I wish I was kidding about this my man, but I did witness the same changes you did.

 

[StraightSix]

If you search the batman for search results in rotten tomato it gives you an updated score.

If that makes sense

 

[dhandler01]

Yeah this happens a lot when all the reviews come at once. If you click through it is updated.

Isn't 80 when they certify fresh? I would assume the "critical consensus" will be released soon because it has so many. (didnt show up on RT for me)

Yeah it’s definitely getting that certified fresh status. When the site stabilises and they’ve added what they need they will probably show it.

RT bugging right now...

Let that tomato-meter Rise, baby!

 

[OnLeatherWings]

89%.

 

[Holy Slapper]

89%.

At least I'm seeing the same score now.

 

[Brotherhood]

Back to 91% for me

 

[Holy Slapper]

Back to 91% for me

How many reviews?

I'm seeing 89% after 142 reviews.

 

[The Joker]

How many reviews?

I'm seeing 89% after 142 reviews.

Same for me.

 

[Holy Slapper]

Just went to 90% after 144.

 

[Iceman]

It seems to be updating in batches. Score is looking very good with a large number of reviews already in.

 

[Gothamsknight]

I see this settling around 85-92

 

[Holy Slapper]

I see this settling around 85-92

Me too. While under 200, it can fluctuate a lot but beyond that, there probably won't be a lot of changes. Based on previous major movies.

 

[Holy Slapper]

I have to say I'm a little worried about falling asleep during this with several reviews saying you could cut 30 minutes from it. I'm sad to admit I did while watching Gladiator in a theater. Only fora few second though...

 

[Holy Slapper]

It was a Certified Fresh at 89% after 148 before bugging again.

 

[emc5466]

The last wave of top critic reviews was really negative.

 

[Asr]

 

[The Riddler]

currently at 87%; looking like 90% will be an uphill battle. just so many negative reviews tied to how dark the movie is. honestly bizarre. it's like saying se7en is too dark and bleak...that's the point.

 

[emielaen]

People def have preconceived notions for what these movies are "supposed" to be.
