Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

    Some of those movies are just awful.

    LOL

    That’s fair (and generally the prevailing opinion from what I can tell)

    I think I just missed the boarding call for this decade’s nitpicky bus because I can’t even stomach reading most reviews anymore. They’re all too negative for my taste.

    Maybe my internal critic just gave up and retired with the advent of midichlorians as a plot device way back in my late teens. That’s the last time I recall being truly disappointed in a movie that I sat all the way through. In retrospect I can’t even blame the star wars extended universe novels at the time for setting the bar too high.
