The movie in all of its essence is a Trojan Horse for woke and cultural Marxism, except the obvious cracks in the shell were laid out in front of us the entire time.

Again, for a verified you must buy your ticket via the Fandango app and can only review after your showtime OR rent the movie via their streaming platform. Is a person who rents or see's it in that manner likely to enjoy it? seems so. I have not seen it and other then passing knowledge that tribe were slavers and its all very ironic, i know nothing of the film. You can click all audience and it takes it down to 80%. If you took away verified and the bombers its probably more around 85ish, but again if a person was actually going to watch that movie they are MORE inclined to like it as its not a casual blockbuster.
Anyways courtesy of the boxoffice reddit. If you cant laugh at it, I feel bad, because it is funny even if you hated the film.

yeah its been well known RT isn't that useful for a while now, hell even the baseline RT score just is a binary "did a critic think this movie was ok or sucked". If its ok (60% or higher score!) it gets a 1, otherwise a 0. Thats a pretty useless metric. 97% Odyssey just means 97/100 critics thought the movie was 60/100 or better. That is meaningless end of the day. And as people have figured out, the user score just is from people clicking yes/no after a fandango booking and viewing, extremely low self selecting.
what about IMDB though? Its currently
and letterboxd which is mostly film bros
(4.3/5.0)
I don't know how IMDB ratings work, i assume letterboxd doesn't require verification you watched or anything so thats pretty high.
By comparison Woman King is 6.9/10 on IMDB and 3.7/5.0 on letter which feels appropriate for the movie. I don't think Odyssey is gonna drop to those numbers though.

Of course they were inverted, and there's no reason to think it had to be there for an entire day or week.

If there's anywhere it gets a positive rating then it's fake and manipulated. That will always be the response.
To be fair, just like almost any system there are issues with the IMDb rating and they use a secret weighted average adjustment so no one really knows how that rating is made. Their stance is it is there to try to combat artificial reviews and brigades (positive or negative). However, you can still see the raw unadjusted rating.
Also, I have found that older films tend to rank better (in the moment and over time) simply because people are less likely to seek out films they hate to leave a bad score unless it is recent.
For those who all think it's fake, you have to wonder why Supergirl is a 6.1, the Flash is 6.6, and The Marvels is 5.4. Those mega companies just didn't pay enough to rig the system for their mega budget films?
