Rotten Tomatoes gives something like The Waterboy about 20%


Because film snobs that take the time to rate movies on RT and IMDb generally hate comedy.

I promise you that the people on those respective websites constantly catapulting marvel and star wars releases into the greatest of all time status are NOT film snobs. Film snobs left imdb years ago, and they were never on RT, which every film snob knows uses a basic bitch calculation that produces scores that don't necessarily reflect the reviews its using to generate those scores.

People rate something like The Waterboy low because it's a pretty sucky movie, and most people aren't from Louisiana to care about the "local flavor" element.
