That's kinda a clue into the thought process in that review. Maybe if this is your first movie watching experience she is a revalation. But to call such a simplistic caricature of a population a revalation is just dumb. You can go see a better version of her performances in any local sketch comedy group

I see that rotten tomatoes only matters when it fits a certain narrative.

Read the reviews and they're pitiful. They say the movie sucks, but hey...females...stop being chauvinists...
The critics were bought off and/or trolling. Obvious agendas for most it seems. If they thought it was good, I could understand. They didn't.

This is hilarious.

Actually read the reviews. They don't think the movie was good, yet they give it a fresh rating.

I agree that some are going overboard on here. But, there is some truth to it. Critics like the girl from the daily beast and Devin Faraci, for example, are major SJW's. If you want a good laugh, go check out Faraci's twitter right now. That dude is a nut job

Jones, McCarthy, McKinnon, and Wiig are so good together - and in ways that are distinctively theirs and not recycled from the past - that their message of not giving a damn resonates better than the movie's underwhelming climax.
That sounds like they actually liked the movie to you? No agendas? Come the frick on

So the opposite of BvS where the reviews stated it was good but not what they wanted so it got a rotten.

I never thought the Nolan batfans would be topped, this is the nadir of nerd fandom.
Posted on 7/10/16 at 10:39 pm to JJ27
It sounds like they didn't dislike it.

Do people really think this movie is going to be good? The previews make it look hideous.

If you Just read 5 of the fresh ratings and can come back here and say that they really enjoyed the actual movie and not the message then good for you... I can buy into the fun summer movie idea but I didn't even get that from most of these positive reviews.. They may have said it but was an afterthought on why they truly gave this movie a pass..

Maybe you're the one w/the agenda b/c the quotes you gave from that review are mostly positive.

Sounds like the review is saying the movie has some flaws like an ending that could be better and it isn't as good as one of the GOAT comedies (OH NOES!) but overall its a fun summer popcorn flick w/a cast that has good chemistry.

This thread is priceless. A bunch of opinions on the critiques a movie that no one on here has actually seen.
