It has a 71% on metacritic.

That's in line with a mediocre Marvel movie.

Why is it so hard to believe the reviews?



How does it even rich 70 when it deserves a much lower rating? The scale goes from 0 to 100 not from 70 to 100.


Maybe your subjective opinion is different than other people's subjective opinions?


In fairness, mediocre marvel movie is absolute bottom of barrel.

For comparison, The Room got a 9. Maybe metacritic scores follow a bathtub curve with "worst possible" sitting somewhere in the middle?


Distribution of grades is rarely even, and I'd guess that if you looked at the median grade on Rotten Tomatoes is would be much closer to 70 than 50. Things less than 50 are usually "very horrible".
