Rotten tomatoes is hard one to gauge. The score reflects the percentage of critics who gave a movie a positive review. So 90% reflects 9 of 10 critics having liked the movie.
Best to use a variety of the different metrics to get an idea of a movies quality than rely on just one
Didn't realise that, I know one thing for sure though is they tend to reflect my opinion better so I tend to trust them over IMDB, that said I use both.

Yeah i use rottentomatoes as well. When you type in the name of a movie on google it should come up on the right hand side with the ratings of IMDB, Rottentomatoes, Metacritic etc.
The only thing I don't like those websites for is comedies. Nearly all comedies are rated below 50% (or something low) because critics have no sense of humour

Is metacritic the same as metascore..? That's part of IMDB
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I think so, but I don't know how much I can trust it when Predator gets 36 out of 100
Being the loyal type, I only use this thread for ratings.
I've sat through a LOT of rubbish films just lately

I find Rotten Tomatoes a better guide for film ratings, IMDB is great for info but I just trust the opinion of RT users more.

me too
imdb is brilliant in every other way though
One of the new sky films is crap. horror one (going to look it up_)
Devil's Due
the acting was good
plot actually OK
but it just got boring. didn't build or get interesting
FFWDed through bits just to get to see what happened in the end
Finally watched the rest of Homeland s4.
Best since s1.
"Predator gets 36 out of 100"
WTF?!??
NOOOOOO!
wrong
they should have made the girl run into her holocost surviving Nana by chance in the jungle to have a touching and politically correct moment before they both die. Would have got 90% approval rating then.
'Finally watched the rest of Homeland s4.

Could make that argument. 4 was the first season I watched, it's probably the best to start with other than the actual start. S3 probably the worst but I enjoyed all of em.
