    I JUST rewatched Gone in Sixty Seconds on a whim, on like Thursday, and spotted that it apparently has a 38% critic rating from Rotten Tomatoes. Fuck that noise, that movie is a materpiece of filmography.

      Tomato-meter has it currently as 26%

      I think it was just too much Race, Chase, Heist Fatigue. When it came out, everyone watched it and had a good time. They got lulled in by the 27 F&F movies. But it’s not the same thing.

            Uhhhh, I dunno, I suppose that’s possible. Rotten Tomatoes wasn’t around in 2000, was it? Would they have aggregated from, like, newspaper reviews at the time?

              That’s a damn good question let me look it up

              From their FAQ:

              Rotten Tomatoes has a team of curators whose job is to gather thousands of movie and TV reviews weekly. The team constantly collects movie and TV reviews from Tomatometer-approved critics and publications generating Tomatometer scores. Our curation process considers these reviews, noting if they are Fresh or Rotten, and our curators choose a representative pull-quote. Tomatometer-approved critics can also self-submit their reviews.

      Agreed! I love to hate gone in sixty seconds, I feel the same way about the need for speed movie as well. If you haven’t seen it I recommend watching the NFS movie.
