In Rotten Tomatoes there's always That Guy who's being contrary for the sake of being different.

Like Paddington and Paddington 2 had 100% review scores for a long time, until some "reviewers" disliked it on purpose bringing Paddington 2 to 99%

Using multiple sites as an aggregate works. In IMDB you need to check the vote distribution graph and in your mind take out all the 1's and 10's and see where the average/median lies after that.

And it's important to find actual reviewers whose taste aligns with yours and use them as more directed guidance.





>Paddington 2

After Chat recommended this as "on par with Shawshank," I watched this last week.

What did I just watch? Why would I recommend this movie to anybody?


It’s a happy movie. No grimdark no blood or guns, low stakes and just pure joy.

>It's a happy movie ... just pure joy.

That's fair. I am an insufferable person, so it checks out.
