If they can just delete negative reviews when put under pressure by WB or Disney or whoever, why bother referencing them?
shareAnd also inconsistently determine whether certain critic reviews are fresh or not, allowing them to tweak the overall score. It's really a joke. Metacritic ftw
shareYouTube is the best bet for movie reviews, only a few people are shills that I know of.
shareNo, the review count dropped by 50K because of glitch. There still shitloads of 1* reviews from idiots who only saw the trailer.

“We launched some changes to the movie pre-release functionality last week, which included not allowing users to leave a comment or review prior to a movie’s release in theatres. However, we still invite users to vote if they ‘want to see’ a movie prior to its release, and that vote total is displayed on the site.”
“We have identified a bug in the post-release functionality for the movies that have released into theaters since our product update last week. The quantity of user ratings (which is displayed directly below the audience score and is intended to only include the quantity of users who have left a rating or written review after a movie’s release) had included both pre-release and post-release fan voting.”
The same RT that removed the "want to see" functions to protect Captain Marvel? Then acted like it wasn't because of that? Yeah, I don't trust a single word that these hacks have to say.
Not to mention that many people are apparently having trouble submitting reviews, and it looks like RT isn't accepting certain ratings. Many reviews in the audience section aren't even displaying stars.
so they made a major change without testing, and they still claim the overnight rushed changes had nothing to do with Captain Marvel
