, on Rotten Tomatoes following the movie’s decision to change the race of some characters and to introduce girls into the gang of “Lost Boys.” So many viewers are slamming the movie, in fact, that the flood of negative reviews not only sent the movie’s Rotten Tomatoes audience score plummeting to 13% .
On Friday afternoon, the review aggregation site also took the unusual step of just removing the low audience score altogether, as you can see below. Again, it had previously stood at 13% when I last checked. [Update: Shortly after this piece was published, the 13% Rotten Tomatoes audience score was restored.]
Rotten Tomatoes owner Fandango has not yet responded to a request I sent seeking comment on this move, which also comes ahead of the release later this month of Disney’s live-action remake of— another Disney remake that is contending with similar criticism already, ahead of its own release.remake. I’m definitely not in the core demographic or who the upcoming remake ofis aimed at, but I just want to say that Halle Bailey seems like a great choice to play the iconic role of Ariel.
What I unfortunately suspect is going to happen with that movie, which is set for a May 26 release, is that critics will knock it for other technical reasons — or, maybe even decide that it’s good but not good enough to justify supplanting the animated classic. To this viewer, for example, the live-action version ofcharacters like Flounder and Sebastian have absolutely none of the same charm or whimsy that we saw in the original. They actually look a little unsettling in the remake.
