Meh. It's not for everyone, but this is a great, great movie - worthy of a score in the 80s, IMHO.

Definitely - anything over 50 is shocking for this one.

Agreed. Not the best movie of all time, but definitely well above average - parts of it are incredible - Norton's performance as the leper king - for example.
And not surprisingly, I'll offer Star Trek (2009) - I harbor a deep and abiding hate for this film. It scores 95% on RT - seriously? 95%? I do not get the universal acclaim for this film.

You're definitely in the minority. I only know of a couple of people who didn't like this movie. I loved it. I liked how they were able to tell the origin story without messing up the original timeline and setting up for more adventures with the new crew. It was a fun story that was well paced and never dull. It also remained fairly consistent and lacked significant plot holes when utilizing time travel and wormholes, a rare thing in movies. I think it deserves every bit of praise it gets. The only people I know that hate it just don't like it because they don't want to imagine anyone else but William Shatner as Kirk, and didn't like the fact that it had more action than they were used to.
