    Same as Google ratings. Like it? 5 stars. Hate it, 1 star. No nuance. If it’s below 3.5 stars, absolute garbage. In Japan they somehow treat the rating system as intended. 3 stars is a solid, ok experience. 5 is exceptionally hard to achieve

      This varies a lot by place. In some countries a 4.0 is an excellent score.

      Google using Rotten Tomatoes for rating is kinda funny for me cuz imdb have its own problems for rating but i never hear people say something like “if a movie is rated high on RT its probably bad” about imdb

        RT’s Tomatometer is awful. If everyone would agree it’s a 6/10 movie, they’d score it as 100% fresh. If everyone would agree a movie is a 10/10 they would score 100% fresh as well.
