        I actually make perfect sense given recent changes RT made. In order to leave an audience review and be counted towards the score, you need to be a verified viewer. Like, someone who has paid for a ticket through an RT partner like Fandango. The reason for this recent change was to prevent review bombing, like what happens on every movie conservatives hate. It obviously has some major drawbacks, like we can see for this movie’s verified audience ratings, as only bootlickers would ever watch this garbage fire propaganda. So we only see their ratings here.

        However, we can still see the all-audience ratings by clicking on the score and selecting that option. It’s currently sitting at 29%, and that’s even after a Republican campaign to boost the score.

        So, we have critic scores at 10% (as of this very moment), which makes sense because the movie is trash and only the Republican culture warriors are giving it a thumbs up. Then only ticket purchasing viewers have their score taken into consideration for the “Verified Audience” score, so you only get bootlickers and of course they’re all giving it a perfect score.

        All you gotta do is check out the people leaving positive reviews. They either don’t exist anywhere but RT, or are obvious bots/paid shills.
