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.

Transformers: Rise of the Beasts is a victim of critc snobbery of shich I used to subscribe to when they all came out.

Eh, sorry, gonna have to agree with critics that it was pretty bad. What makes it more painful is that last time with Bumblebee showed a lot of promise, but here they fell right back into spectacle over substance. We didn't need to go right back to a world-ending threat so soon. Maybe it needed to be split in 2, so we get a separate Beast Wars movie first, then later bring in Unicron.

I never thought we'd see the Beast Wars bots on the big screen, and sadly they weren't strong enough to overpower the suckage. Too bad.
