Has anything got 100% on Rotten Tomatoes? ›

To date, Leave No Trace holds the site's record, with a rating of 100% and 252 positive reviews.

Welcome to the 100% Club, where every movie isn't necessarily perfect, but their Tomatometers are. A place where all the critic reviews are Fresh, as far as the eye can see, without a Rotten mark to disrupt all the 1s and their attendant 0s in the percentage scores.

Fresh red tomato. When at least 60% of reviews for a movie or TV show are positive, a red tomato is displayed to indicate its Fresh status. Green splat tomato. When less than 60% of reviews for a movie or TV show are positive, a green splat is displayed to indicate its Rotten status.

Any additional Rotten reviews could toss the movie from the 99% Club and into the gutter that is a 98% score, to associate with the likes of Wizard of Oz and The Godfather. You'll notice most in the 99% Club are from this century. Movies may or may not be getting better, but they are getting reviewed more.

So when a movie such as “Black Panther” gets a certified “fresh” 97 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, we interpret it as a film that is near perfection, while a film such as last year's “The Emoji Movie” that lands around 9 percent, must be a steaming pile of garbage.

On the film review aggregation website Rotten Tomatoes, films that every surveyed critic considered bad have a 0% rating.

To receive a full popcorn bucket, at least 60% of users give a film or show a star rating of 3.5 or higher. A tipped over popcorn bucket indicates that less than 60% of users have given it a 3.5 or higher.

Rotten Tomatoes is now owned by Fandango Media, and it uses Fandango's movie ticket purchase system so that users can purchase movie tickets directly from its site. So, some of Rotten Tomatoes revenues also come from a fee it collects for each online ticket purchase.

IMDb has tons of information about the movie and the people involved with it, to include the entire cast and crew, but IMDb does not have reviews. For reviews, we go to Rotten Tomatoes or Metacritic. RT collects more reviews than Metacritic, but breaks down the critics as either liking the film or not liking the film.

How reliable are Rotten Tomatoes? ›

Is Rotten Tomatoes trustworthy? For the most part, yes. The incident made public by Vulture could be very isolated and was for a relatively smaller film. However, Rotten Tomatoes has become unavoidable in making a successful movie, and if you aren't willing to work the system their way, it could mean a box office flop.
