Two great examples to illustrate this point:

I'm thinking of ending things (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/im_thinking_of_ending_things), 82% critic score, 49% audience score. This movie takes "it makes you think" to a whole new dimension. It's two hours and fourteen minutes of melancholic confusion, wondering if you missed something important, then it's over without ever really resolving anything. You're on your own to connect the dots and make sense of the movie, or more likely you'll have to do additional research to figure out what the plot actually was. I don't regret watching it, but I also can't recommend it.

Red Notice (https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/red_notice), 39% critic score, 92% audience score. Bland, forgettable plot with cool effects. Explosions, The Rock, Gal Gadot, and Ryan Reynolds. A fun, enjoyable movie to stream on a weeknight, but not something I would have paid to see in theaters.
