That's how word of mouth works for these movies. Not critical analysis.

They don't care about the "critical analysis" obviously, all they care about is the scores.
Normies are very interested in what the general public think about movies, and how much a movie has made at the box office. They are more inclined to watch something that has good scores on their favorite movie websites and/or if it has made a lot of money. To them if it is popular = it must be good.
I do, but with the knowledge that RT critics are usually whiny liberal faggots who get buttblasted when a movie either doesn't enforce their political and social beliefs or shits all over them.
So I actually read the reviews instead of just looking at the overall score.
