Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes? - eviltoast

Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

    The scene with the wounds on his hands, something like:

    “does it hurt?”

    “Not really”

    Pours salt in wounds “Does it now?”

    “No”

    Breaks thermometer into the wounds “how about now?”

    “A little”

    “Aww! Poor baby!” Bandages wounds

    That scene has played on a loop in the back of my brain for decades. It’s fucking hilarious. That and when the evil master reveals his name is Betty, and plays Big Butts. I loved that movie before I started smoking weed, and I loved it even more the first time I watched it stoned.
