  • Critic and audience scores are more and less important depending on the movie.

    Do you want to find movies that are well done, break new ground, or include the tropes that critics love? Critic reviews are helpful.

    Do you want something that is well done in a genre that critics tend to look down on, like horror or comedy? Audience reviews are helpful.

    But any kind of score aggregation of either group is far less useful than reading a review that clarifies whether the movie includes things you like a lnd whether they are well done. A horror movie that has reviews that mention frequent jump scares will drive me away because I don’t like them that much unless they are frequent and well done. Someone else might want to see it because that is what they enjoy!
