Hmmm, the previews all looked quite funny... maybe it's a case where they showed all the funniest bits though.

Don't care. It still looks fun. Will watch when it is available for home streaming.

Would've expected Alexandria Daddario to get it at least 15% or so.

Doesn't matter. People aren't watching for the plot

I recently found out that RT is owned by Universal. Not that this is going to be in the running for Best Picture or anything but I wonder if they purposely deflate the score of rival studios. Baywatch is a Paramount film.

The Rock needs to focus more on quality than quantity. I'm sure this will make money, but it looks like a turd.

I didn't think it looked all that funny but they've been showing the same previews for so long now I think people were sick of it before they ever saw it.

Let's be honest.

No one was seeing this expecting cinematic excellence.

Saw it last week and thought it was pretty good for a comedy. Some cheesy and dumb moments, but had me laughing out loud a lot. No nude chicks but tons of tits & arse. Not going to win an Oscar but it was certainly better than a 10% score... I wouldn't have saw it in theaters if it wasn't free but definitely worth checking out when it comes out on vhs.

It's not like the original series was a critical juggernaut.

Well some of the bad reviews seem to have been written by politically correct SJWs...and they don't like the movie because it's not an updated Ghostbuster SJW vehicle piece.

But even as it adds R-rated language and nudity, "Baywatch" remains as out of touch as an old Playboy party joke. The idea of guys touching other guys (or - ugh - giving mouth-to-mouth) is gross. A scene of Efron disguising himself by putting on a dress is meant to be a laugh riot. It's not.

Nor are the movie's other attitudes particularly up to date. Just casting the multi-racial Johnson does not get you a pass - certainly not when the villain is a greedy South Asian woman, the guest list at a corrupt Latino politician's party consists of drugged-up Latina sexpots, and most of the comic relief comes from a pudgy nerd making jokes about Hebrew school.

I legit love the RT review that says "congrats Dax Sheppard you no longer have the worst old TV show to film adaptation of the year".

Yeah I'll watch it on a premium cable channel when it comes out this fall or whatever but no amount of PRETTY WOMENZ would make me want to pay to see a bad movie at a theatre.

I don't rely on RT too much when it comes to comedies

I saw the movie at an early screening last week

Honestly, it wasn't that bad. Kind of cheesy at times, but a pretty good watch otherwise
