    The left is Rotten Tomatoes which I usually my go-to. The relative % of critic and user ratings let me know what. Getting into. If both are high it’s a well made blockbuster, critic high user low is thought provoking, critic low user high is the Walmart lowest denominator slapstick, action, or romcom, and both low is trash like Freddie Got Fingered or The Room.

    The other is Letterboxd, a social movie review platform, that I’ve never used but I can imagine it would make my peenus hort.

      Solid analysis of rotten tomatoes scores. The comparison between critic/user reviews says so much more than the scores themselves.

      Yeah, and even if both ratings are low, it can still be enjoyable to watch for you.

      The only real way to know if a movie is good, is to watch it yourself.

        Barring just watching EVERYTHING, which nobody has time for, you should follow movie critics that share your sensibilities.

      Tbh, i think that any ratings platform is decent once you get an idea of its userbase. I use imdb because i have all my life and I don’t care to figure out how rt does their ratings when i can more or less get a general idea based on the genre what the imdb score says
