FAQs

How does rotten tomato score work? ›

So basically, every review on the site is classified as either "rotten" or "fresh" — good or bad, positive or negative. And then a Rotten Tomatoes score for a movie is calculated by just basically dividing the number of positive reviews by the total reviews. That's it.

When at least 60% of reviews for a movie or TV show are positive, a red tomato is displayed to indicate its Fresh status. Green splat tomato. When less than 60% of reviews for a movie or TV show are positive, a green splat is displayed to indicate its Rotten status. Faded tomato.

To date, Leave No Trace holds the site's record, with a rating of 100% and 252 positive reviews.

And that's why a sequel never happened. “We had one official crack at the script,” Tomlin said in a People interview. “The draft just didn't work for us. We couldn't really see the work world today [in the pages].

Welcome to the 100% Club, where every movie isn't necessarily perfect, but their Tomatometers are. A place where all the critic reviews are Fresh, as far as the eye can see, without a Rotten mark to disrupt all the 1s and their attendant 0s in the percentage scores.

Scores of over 60 percent are considered fresh, and scores of 59 percent and under are rotten.

On the film review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, films that every surveyed critic considered bad have a 0% rating.

Tomatometer scores

Fresh: Films or TV shows with a score of 60% or higher that do not meet the requirements for the "Certified Fresh" seal. Rotten: Films or TV shows with a score of 59% or lower receive this seal.

So when a movie such as “Black Panther” gets a certified “fresh” 97 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, we interpret it as a film that is near perfection, while a film such as last year's “The Emoji Movie” that lands around 9 percent, must be a steaming pile of garbage.

Citizen Kane (1941) stood at number 1 for five consecutive polls, with 22 votes in 1962, 32 votes in 1972, 45 votes in 1982, 43 votes in 1992, and 46 votes in 2002. It also topped the first two directors' polls, with 30 votes in 1992 and 42 votes in 2002.

What is the longest film of all time? ›

The longest film ever made, according to Guinness World Records, is "The Cure for Insomnia" (1987), directed by John Henry Timmis IV.

The revamp caused an instant decline in the ratings, falling to 75th out of 76 shows, and the series was cancelled five episodes into the new season. As ABC decided to pull the plug on 9 to 5 just a month into the season, only five episodes were broadcast in the 1983–84 season, with two episodes remaining unaired.

Perhaps one of the most beloved comedies of the 1980s, 9 to 5 is getting a brand-new remake with Friends alum Jennifer Aniston producing. Premiering in 1980, the film concerns three women who work under a tyrannical boss and decide to teach him a lesson in humility.

Fonda revealed that she is also an executive producer on the project. Rashida Jones and Pat Resnick have been attached to write a script.

The “Tomatometer Rankings” connects to the practice of viewers throwing rotten tomatoes when disapproving of a poor stage performance; the higher the percentage a movie receives, the more “fresh” it is and, at least theoretically, better in the show business world.

The Fresh Tomato or Popcorn Logo may only be displayed in connection with a film if it received a combined score of 60% or better.

IMDB has a much better search function and if you are looking for information about the movie, IMDB is far superior. Both rating systems are good but it is easier to see the clunkers with Rotten Tomatoes. Why do Rotten Tomato critics give consistently bad reviews to good films and TV shows?
