The site has got criticism from actual film makers for that very thing. From none other than Martin Scorsese. I would like to see someone say that he doesn't know cinema But the thing is...RT doesn't make reviews. It's just a place where reviewers post their stuff so it can all be compiled together. Criticizing RT for that shows that you don't understand what RT is and how it works. |

Even on this site i explained that to some users. But that's what Marty was reffering also.People look, see a number there and then decide if they should watch it or not |

RT somehow seems like the place to look for reviews right now, and people let critics dictate what should they see, that was his point. Let's say Ragnarok, Homecoming and Guardians 2 had awful reviews but you liked them. Would you not go to see Infinity war because it has a tomatometer around 30%? |

The people who let critics alone dictate if they should see a film or not are unwilling to make that decision for themselves. But...I think people are going to see JL and the majority still aren't happy. Yes, I would. I've seen every DCEU film thus far and will probably see the rest. Doesn't mean I don't agree with the critics. |

Seriously... Every post in this thread is some sort of deep analysis about them as if they meant anything... I am honestly asking why you care so much? Because they are the closest thing we've got to an independent and objective assessment of a movie. Most people want to know if a movie is worth their time and money, prior to seeing it themselves. It is silly to haggle over a few percentage points. If a movie is in the 70-90% it is probably worth your time. 0-40% probably not. |

They only matter when they agree with your opinions, like Wonder Woman. Not when they don't, like everything else. That is the DCEU way.
