HolyDay Movie Show's
Rotten
Tomatoes and the HolyDay Movie Show's™ rating is the most trusted
measurement of quality entertainment. As the leading online aggregator
of movie and TV show reviews from professional critics, Rotten Tomatoes
offers the most comprehensive guide to what's fresh. The world famous
HolyDay Movie Show's™ rating represents the percentage of positive
professional reviews for films and TV shows and is used by millions
every day, to help with their entertainment viewing decisions. Rotten
Tomatoes designates the best reviewed movies and TV shows as Certified
Fresh. That accolade is awarded with Tomatometer ratings of 75% and
higher, and a required minimum number of reviews. Weekly Rotten Tomatoes

A
good review is denoted by a fresh red tomato. In order for a movie or
TV show to receive an overall rating of Fresh, the reading on the
Tomatometer for that movie must be at least 60%.
A bad review is denoted by a rotten green tomato splat (59% or less).
To receive a Certified Fresh rating a movie must have a steady Tomatometer rating of 75% or better. Movies opening in wide release need at least 80 reviews from Tomatometer Critics (including 5 Top Critics). Movies opening in limited release need at least 40 reviews from Tomatometer Critics (including 5 Top Critics). A TV show must have a Tomatometer Score of 75% or better with 20 or more reviews from Tomatometer Critics (including 5 Top Critics). If the Tomatometer score drops below 70%, then the movie or TV show loses its Certified Fresh status. In some cases, the Certified Fresh designation may be held at the discretion of the Rotten Tomatoes editorial team.
