We recently watched a movie that audience and critics adored. It was god awful. I don't trust those ratings (or any ratings) really.
Do tell, what was the movie?
https://m.imdb.com/title/tt32149847/
That movie has a 6.1 score at imdb. Thats a pretty low score..
I was in a hurry and didn't think to include the RT link. It's 84% fresh there

I find that if IMDB is 6.5-7.5 it's probably okay to take a chance. The lower to 6 it's a toss up as to whether it matches personal preferences.
The worst movie I’ve ever seen has an 89% audience score
Curious... which movie?
“Fly Me To The Moon”, 2024
I have never been a Channing Tatum fan, so I can't say I'm surprised. Most pro wrestlers can act better than that guy.
🤮 I walked out halfway
Best thing is to find a critic, who has kinda your taste or can express why they (dis)like a movie for you to compare to your own taste.
I mostly watch a german critic that sometimes says stuff like "it's good for a trash night and if that is enough for you, there you go. 2.5/5 from me" and that is exactly what I want to know.
