...which weights the reviews.
Rotten Tomatoes is not as reliaboe IMO, although it has legit reviewers, it has a whole lot more wannabes with websites and little actual insight. Even some of the pros on RT are more consumer guide types who really aren't very good at anything in depth.
There is virtually nothing on TV that I would ever trust for movie reviews now. It's "read" or be at extreme risk.
Personally, I have a few reviewers/film writers whom I follow fairly closely and whose opinions I respect.
