    Up to 78% aggregate score now.

    That's not exactly indicative of 'slightly above average'. Main consensus seems to be 'a decent summer blockbuster and worth seeing'. Not sure they were aiming for anything more?

    Rotten Tomatoes judges whether a review is positive or negative, and then aggregates the numbers into a percentage. It doesn't indiciate quality, just how many people gave it an average or above review with a fairly positive outlook.

    So while the RT score would appear to give it a solid 78%, reading many of the reviews rated as positive rate it as slightly above mediocre with a lot of problems.

    Doesn't mean you won't find enjoyment in it, but it's not necessarily a good movie.

    However the process of robo-insemination is far too complex for the human mind!

    I think it's more pathetic than sad.

    Usually if I really dislike something I just ignore it and move on and get on with my life....Don't really understand why you'd want to go to all that effort, it's just a movie afterall.

    Speaking of genuinely disliking stuff..

    [url=http://www.denofgeek.com/uk/movies/ghostbusters/38949/ghostbusters-dvd-extended-cut-will-have-extra-15-minutes]DVD is to have an additional 15 minutes of story[/url].

    Awwwww.....come on, Hollywood. Enough of that. Seriously. I get some stuff needs to be cut to get a target rating (family film and that), but don't be taking the piss, yeah? Director's Cuts in the mid-90's worked, because they typically changed the film quite a bit (Alien 3 and Bladerunner). But this is just seeming a touch greedy.

    Still gonna go see it though!

    I find that overall Rotten Tomatoes aggregate is more accurate than Metacritics, which mashes various 3,5,6 and 10 star reviews or non scored reviews together in a way that I often find skews the results towards the negative.

    I am excite for this one, I'm not going in expecting anything but a simple, fun Ghostbusters film and by the sound of it that is what I will get. Also apparently Kate McKinnon steals the film and I approve of lesbian sneak-thiefs.
    Ask not the EldarGal a question, for she will give you three answers, all of which are puns and terrifying to know. Back off man, I'm a feminist. Ia! Ia! Gloppal Snode!
