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.

Both from 1991: Hudson Hawk and Nothing But Trouble

The internet has ruined ratings for me. I don't even read reviews or ratings before watching something and I make my own opinion of it, usually through the trailer. Everyone is a keyboard warrior these days and everyone thinks they're experts.

I’d like to see lists where both the tomato meter score and audience score are below 60

Surfer, Dude. - criminally underrated and a great chill movie. Also, "get outside more" is a great theme. I dig it and wish more people did.

Bunraku, and despite the title it's an english movie with Woody Harrelson and Ron Perlman. Its setting stands out the most as it's made as a giant paper popup book with a sin city ambiance sprinkled with some cartoony humor.

Although the movie tone is pretty serious ala Sin City, it's not a serious movie at all. And I believe a lot of dont-take-it-so-serious movies got unjustly canned a lot in '00s & '10s by critics. I'm glad to see that's changing a bit over last few years.

Fired Up. Sitting at 24 percent from critics.

Was it as good as Not Another Teen Movie? No, probably not. But it still had some hilarious moments and lines. I especially enjoyed the long running jokes they kept sneaking in throughout the movie.

The little mermaid: Return to the sea

Rated 45% https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_little_mermaid_2_return_to_the_sea

I like it because there's not many movies that just concentrate on swimming around in the ocean. I genuinely like it when I'm sick or background noise.

I Come In Peace / Dark Angel (1990) - campy sci-fi action with a really interesting premise.

I watched it as a kid on VHS in the early nineties, then spent 20 something years trying to remember its name.
