How many $50 reviewers did they have to buy though?

Looking at Ophelia… huh, it’s not on Rotten Tomatoes anymore…

Well, looking at ANOTHER crappy Daisy Ridley movie, Chaos Walking:

www.rottentomatoes.com/m/chaos_walking

21% rating on 154 reviews.

So 32 positive reviews and 122 negative reviews.

To hit 60% they would need to add 151 positive reviews. 183/305 total reviews.

At $50 a pop, those 151 positive reviews would run $7,550. Chump change.
