    Usually look at the user ratings and it’s a lot nicer than IMDB since they aggregate critic & user reviews.

    Lol no

    User ratings usually tell the story while the official ratings are usually the other way around

    It’s so easy to see where RT was paid for good numbers that it’s laughable at this point.

    Don’t trust RT further than you can throw it

      A tomato is famously a pretty throwable veg though… Unless it’s so rotten it falls apart as you pick it up I guess 😄

    TLDR: Tomatoes got brought out by the company that owns Warner Brothers in 2016 and the average review score has been going up since then.

    I usually look it on rt before going to the movie, and it has not being working out last few years. 7s and 8s are straight up dogshit.

    Any decent alternatives?

      “Rotten Tomatoes” is a proper noun referring to a single subject. Even though Tomatoes is pluralized, the subject is still a singular website rather than multiple.
