Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

    This has always been easy for me because my favorite movie is “Speed Racer” which has like a 40% on Rotten Tomatoes.

    A movie that was genuinely before its time. Would fit right in these days with “Barbie” and “Everything Everywhere All At Once”.

      Speed Racer is such a rad movie. Definitely suffered from the tendency I noticed in the past of hyper-stylized/”weird" movies getting trashed by critics just for aesthetics. That does seem to be lessening quite a bit, given the reception to movies like you mentioned. Here’s hoping it keeps going!
