>Those superfluous descriptions
Why the hell can critics get away with this? I've been told numerous times in the writing classes I took to keep the reports as succinct, with as little wordy statements as possible. Most of these reviews just keep repeating the same criticism, that's it's racist, right-wing patriotism, but does so in the least effective manner possible.

I didn't say that. Dumb & Dumber is wittier than any big American comedy from the last 15 years, at least.

Honestly rottentomatoes isn't that bad. It lets you see what a variety of critics think of a movie, and understand the general consensus on what kinda movie it is.
Unfortunately retards like OP have nothing better to do than look at percentages and whine why some numbers are bigger than others.

5.4 is a movie you never want to see.

6.7 is maybe DVD if bored.

it is trash. like honestly I have seen the Audience like complete horrible shit that the critics completely trashed. The audience is normally more forgiving then the critics also.
>>
>>87786073
I'm sure it works great for you. You sound like a huge pleb who watches only mainstream crap. Let's look at some recent films that trigger /pol/.

Get Out
C: 8.3, TC: 8.1 A: 4.2/5 IMDB: 7.8

Wonder Woman
C: 7.6, TC: 7.7 A: 4.3 IMDB: 7.7

London Has Fallen
C: 3.9, TC: 3.1 A: 3.3 IMDB: 5.9

It seems like normal people generally agree with the critics.

>>
>>87786480
See what? And why are you talking about niggers all the time? Get Out is liked by the audience, All Eyez on Me has a higher audience score.

12 years a slave? 4.3 audience score, 8.1 on IMDB

Selma? 4.1 audience score, 7.5 on IMDB

Dear White People? Critics - 7.5, Top Critics 7.8, Audience: 3.4/5 (which is pretty much 7/10)

I get it you hate black people, but it has nothing to do with RT.

Audience scores have that factor where a bunch of assholes give 0/10s and 10/10s for no reason.

And its impossible to tell how many of them are being genuine with their scores.
>>
>>87786880
>no reason.

They actually bought the product the have more invested and are less likely to be bought by the film maker.
>>
>>87786795
4.3/10 vs 3.4/5 (6.8/10)
That's a pretty big difference.

>when people are not buying tickets
Not for political reasons. Netflix and popularity of TV shows are probably the biggest reasons why people don't want to watch movies in theaters anymore.
>>
>>87784913
This is part of a concentrated effort by Hollywood is discredit RT as a reliable source of information.
>>
>>87786868
Weird, because most critics don't see it like this.
>>
>>87786880
Maybe they have the same system that IMDB has that doesn't count scores of accounts with only a few reviews so that people don't start making multiple accounts to make the score higher or lower by giving it a 1 or a 10.
>>
>>87786935
I can honestly believe it. Undermining the value of criticism to sow skepticism is in the best interest of these billion-dollar industries because it keeps people in check to keep lining up for the shit they keep putting out.

>Poke a stick into the psychology of Mother! you might come up with something like this: The male artist both punishes and worships the muse; he needs her to get stuff done, but 99% of the time he doesn’t really want her around. He needs chaos to create while she craves peace and order. Sometimes he’s nice, but mostly he’s cruel. The muse smiles and brings him a snack, hoping that will help.
That's from a feminist writer.
>>
>>87787290
She didn't like the movie.

>Aronofsky, to his credit, doesn’t take delight in torturing his lead character. His sympathy is with her every minute, and ours is too. But even though the movie’s effects are elaborate and expensive-looking—the house itself becomes a character, a prison folding in itself, or a mansion exploding like a grim flower—the picture leaves us with nothing, or very little, to hang onto. It tries so desperately to be crazy and disturbing that all we can see is the effort made and the money spent. No wonder there’s an exclamation mark in its title. Aronofsky just doesn’t know when to quit.
