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.
Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time is way better than anyone gives it credit for. It’s a really fun movie.
I also really like Vanilla Sky even though critics hate it. It’s a weird but good movie.
How Equilibrium has a 40% RT rating is beyond me. It’s amazing.
Yeah, I liked Prince of Persia as well! It’s nothing groundbreaking, but it’s a fun movie.
I remember being subjugated by Gemma Arterton https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J3w-5rovWhQ
That shocks me that Equilibrium is only 40%… it’s one of my favorite movies
Yeah, audience score: 81%, well deserved.
Wait, people don’t like Vanilla Sky‽ That movie is great!
So good! After seeing it, I grabbed and watched Abre Los Ojos the next week just to get more.
Equilibrium is so goddamn good.
I also loved terminator genysis. It was fun and entertaining, ok!? Also a huge sucker for time travel movies.
Equilibrium is a good movie. I remember the controversy of the new Ghostbusters which has weird numbers too (people hated it, RT loved it).
Vanilla Sky was quite good.
I’m pretty shocked to see Vanilla Sky rated that poorly. I recall it being a critical darling at the time.
I feel like prince of Persia missed on timing more than anything. It came out too close to dragon emperor imo. And the same year as clash of the titans. It’s a decent flick, but not good enough to outrun the comparisons on what all 3 did poorly. (Mostly dialog)
The only time I ever heard anything Rush Limbaugh say that I agreed with is that he thought Vanilla Sky was a good movie. Interestingly, he said it to a left-wing caller and they found common ground for a few minutes about the movie.
Yes, I occasionally had to listen to Limbaugh unfortunately.
Jake Gyllenhall played a great middle eastern
