I've seen very few critics opinions that I've agreed with, and fewer I disagree with but voice their opinion in a way that isn't purely subjective.
Just mentioning because I'm seeing a horrible amount of journalist and journalist adjacent professionals doing very bad work.

It’s at 47% now yikes. Seems like most critics saying it’s horrible, a few saying it has some redeeming qualities, and some positive reviews that appear to be fake.

I typically agree with the aggregate score on Rotten Tomatoes for about 85% of movies. Even when I don’t want to haha.

Fair.
I've found a lot of gems with 60% ratings. Usually the type that's really well crafted, but requires people to watch and pay attention. The first thing that comes to mind as an example is the first season of the witcher. It was all laid out to understand, but you had to pay attention to the name drops. 68% critic score, but I thought that first season was excellent

The prestige Coppola carries certainly makes reviews less reliable for this, I’d say. Industry can’t let a good marketing angle slip by.
