Rotten Tomatoes blocked bad reviews on so many movies assuming anyone who hates them are women hating men. It's fucked up.

The divisiveness in the discourse surrounding the allegorical satire Don’t Look Up was replicated in the Tomato-verse, where the Adam McKay film currently holds a 22% divide. While the sheer spectacle of Don’t Look Up’s cast may have won most audiences over (earning a 78% score), McKay’s heavy-handed and overly ambitious messaging was critiqued by reviewers with a 55% Tomatometer. It may not be the biggest Rotten Tomatoes gap, but it sure is significant. Despite the debate (or maybe because o...

The comedic tale of a would-be drug dealer and his fake family found its star power in Jennifer Aniston and Jason Sudeikis, with enough zingy one-liners to compensate for a somewhat predictable third act.

In any case,Jennifer Aniston’s rightfu...

While one of Hugh Jackman’s great performances was enjoyed by both demographics, some were displeased with the de...

Comedy is perhaps the most subjective movie genre. The kinds of humor that work for some may be entirely unappealing to others. So, when Seth Rogen’s anthropomorphized groceries came to life in Sausage Party, they left critics salivating at an 82% Tomatometer score, but audiences with a bad taste in their mouths at a 50% rating. Acclaimed by cinephiles for its raucously profane gags and unexpected intellectual depth, the film faced harsher criticism by general movie-goers, who perhaps sought...
