A good Christian-themed movie will be much more polarizing and for real. For example “Old-Fashioned” (2014):

(Found it by specifically searching Rotten Tomatoes for movies rated lowly by critics and highly by the audience. For “Old-Fashioned” the ratio is 17/83. For “Plan 9” the ratio is 66/45, nothing spectacular.)
- harha 3y agoOh this is also my metric for good movies and conversely I drive clear of high critics ratings with low audience ratings. Life's too serious already, I want to enjoy watching movies
- ghaff 3y agoEven Roger Ebert who I think was both an excellent film critic and more an everyman in his tastes than Gene Siskel had a definite film critic mode that was more highbrow than my tastes (which are not especially lowbrow). You probably don't/didn't get into that profession without having some degree of film snobbery.
- ghaff 3y agoI don't think that many people (anyone?) actually think Plan 9 is a good movie in the film critic sense. Rather it's something you should watch (or at least you used to) at a midnight movie showing because "it's so bad it's good" (or at least a lot of fun in the right context).
