Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes? (xkcd.com)

Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

Civil War. I don't know the rating on Rotten Tomatoes, but I do know that it is a recent movie, and 196 sent me here lol

Maximum Overdrive (1986): 14%

It's dumb as shit, and I will always love it for that reason.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 1 year ago

I am pretty sure every movie I really like is under 60% on RT.

I liked Cats. It's far from flawless, but I left the theater happy and I still listen to the film version of some songs. (Skimbleshanks is obviously great, but Swift's take on Macavity is fun and I genuinely like Beautiful Ghosts)

I unironically think that Crystal Skull is better than Last Crusade

That's a pretty hard one for me I guess. I watch maybe none to two movies a year. I'm not sure if I ever watched a movie with a such low rating. I usually only watch a movie if I'm realy bored and have absolutely nothing else to do. So I only whatch movies i'm very certain i'll enjoy. The lowest rated move im remember was "the platform" with 73% i guess. I personally liked this one pretty much.
