I’ve been writing about video games, television and movies for Forbes for over 10 years, and you may have seen my reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic. I cover all manner of console and PC games, but if it’s about looting or shooting, I’m definitely there. If I’m watching something, it’s usually science fiction, horror or superheroic.
, I do tend to reject the idea that “critics know nothing, and only audience scores matter.” This really is not reflective of reality, as most of the time, critic and audience scores are pretty similar, especially in genres where you might not think that’s true like superhero films. There are outliers, sure, but on the whole? We’re not so different, you and I.
I’ve said previously it’s rare that there has been a film made less for critics and more for fans in a way that has turned out this well in memory. We can look at other well-performing films critics hated and fans liked but the gaps aren’tThe Lion King had a 52% versus an 88% for critic/audience score. Transformers Age of Extinction: 18% to 50%. Jurassic World Dominion: 29% to 77%. Fifty Shades of Grey, 25% to 41%. Twilight, 49% to 72%.
In most cases, we might get a blockbuster movie reviewed badly by critics, but fans mostly like it and it does solid at the box office. Or critics love a movie, fans love a movie, and it does great. If critics love a movie and fans hate it, you might get some awards, but probably not a big box office haul.it. It’s not just the Rotten Tomatoes score, the 33 on Metacritic means its average score is akin to a 1.5/5 stars or a 3/10. And in contrast fansit.
