This movie will be average at best.

I frankly don't use Rotten Tomatoes and I personally hate a lot of their Critics Scores on movies. Like Twins is only a 37%. Also Predator 2 is the lowest rated Predator movie which imo is just not right. Not to mention their pro Marvel anti DC bias.

How mad are you that this movie ended up being a critically acclaimed, award nominated, box office hit?

I liked this movie. Just stating my opinion on Rotten Tomatoes.

Because it was far above average. No superheroes, no guns, no explosions, minimal CGI if any. A rare treat.

it wasn't a bad film.. i'd say higher than average and most expectations.
should be around 78% i think.

I didn't love it either. I'm not even sure I liked it. I didn't hate it, but I didn't think it was particularly entertaining.

The cast share the same high degree of political hemophilia. It was therefor pre-great.

But it didn't totally suck despite its tedious heavy hand. I give it a C+. It made me want to rewatch Murder by Death which is an A+ film of the same genre.
