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.

Jurassic World Dominion. The original Jurassic Park is probably my favorite movie of all time, and I know that people hate the remakes. But they were so much fun to me. I love dinosaurs. Sue me.

Not rotten tomatoes, but the Untouchables has a metacritic score of 57, which blows my mind cause I really enjoyed it.

Legend(2015) has an audience score of 59% for some bizarre reason. I'd think anyone that was onboard for the permise enough to watch it in the first place would enjoy it a lot. I know I did, great movie.

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.

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

Bench warmers

Ditto, I genuinely enjoyed watching that

ITT: A bunch of great, underrated movies.

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.

Hellraiser: Inferno. Producers should not have latched on to the Hellraiser franchise (I think it was a script rewritten for the purpose), but it has this cool premise of a guy entering an alternate, surreal reality.

I love the Hellraiser franchise and don’t really consider this part of it but I do rewatch this movie every few years for the cool daily-life-twisted feel.

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.
