When Critics and Audience Disagree

Rotten Tomatoes aggregates reviews for movies using two separate score systems. Tomatometer scores (0%–100%) are based on the reviews of professional film critics. Popcornmeter scores (0%–100%) are based on the star ratings of general audience. What the critics love don't always agee with the audience love.

The below quadrant chart tries to highlight what movies the critics reviewed positively but the audience rated negatively, and what movies the audience rated positively but the critics reviewed negatively. Each dot represents a unique combination of Tomatometer score and Popcornmeter score. The dot size is proportional to the number of movies having that score combo.
