Anything that's 7+ is generally good, anything below that is flawed. The Tomato meter just comes off as random and an unreliable indicator for me.
- bazmattaz 1y agoYes I was going to say something similar. I often use a blend on IMDb score and rotten tomatoes to judge whether I should watch a movie. The only thing I will say is that IMDB scores are also (likely) gamed by movie studios to artificially inflate their scores. You also need to be careful with certain genres and series on IMDB that attract positive ratings from the archetypal IMDB user. This is why marvel movies and such receive such sky high ratings. Basically if the movie is not a mainstream superhero type blockbuster full of cgi you can use the IMDB score if your judgement
