do u trust movie reviews from imdb or rottentomatoes more?

Neither. I watch the movie and see what I think.

@GlitterBug i mostly regret it when i do that

It's 90 minutes of my time and a few bucks. 'Trust' feels dramatic - but I get your question. 'Yeah' - I'm more likely to watch something if it's rated well. But if someone recs it and it isn't rated well, I'll still have a look.

Lol - on my remote right below the lil triangle that makes the movie 'play' on my tv is a lil square that makes it 'stop.' ;)

@hlpflwthat maybe that's my problem. i always see a movie through to the end hoping there's some redeeming quality.

@SW-User Good point with some merit. More than once I've wandered away during a flick and the rest of em tell me next day I missed a good show.
Not necessarily. It can give an idea what the plot is about but listening to others and their experiences with a movie is always better, I find.

@SapphicHeart it helps if you know someone like minded when it comes to movies
@SW-User
Yes, but at times we need to be open to surprises too. I did it with movie suggestions for Valentine's and got some suggestions. I watched trailers of the movies while having the words told to me about it in the back of my head while doing so.

I don't trust any of them. I just have to watch the movie for myself. Most of the low rates ones turn out great.

@Indy74 i find the opposite true usually. like the low rates ones i agree with mostly, but some of the high rated ones are crap.

@SW-User I agree with that. 🙂👍️
Rotten tomatoes was my go to but something changed
these days their reviews suck

@ManIsEatingEarthUpLikeCandy they seem inconsistent

I go there after I watched a movie myself. To check how many people agree or disagree with my opinion about it.
Its all the same to me. Its people giving their opinion and should be taken as subjective.

Rottentomatoes censored the reviews on captain marvel. Little rascals

@ProdigalSummer i don't really. but seeing a general consensus gives me a better idea of how much i'd like a movie.
