Seems high, but except for paid critics, no one went to see "Melania" who wasn't going to rate it an A++++ no matter what. I mean, would you pay money to see it? I wouldn't go if you paid me.

Perhaps I am mistaken... I thought you were a paid critic. You serve on a critics award panel for documentaries, right?

In 100% sincerity and seriousness, I was waiting for you to inevitably have to see MELANIA for one of your gigs. If you told me it was actually worth seeing, I would probably have to shut up about it! (...Not about Melania being an amoral enabler and opportunist, perhaps, but at least about the movie being objectively Bad...)

HAUNTERS OF THE SILENCE (2025): A recently-widowed man falls into a ghost-haunted nightmare. Abstract, but technically accomplished in both its dark ambient audio and morbid psychedelic visuals that produce some unexpectedly stunning images; the rating is a bit low, however, because this debut feature is essentially in the "student film" genre and will only be appreciated by a tiny audience. It's the kind of thing that can fascinate you for a few minutes, but watching for more than an hour with no real plot can be a chore. Debuting on Tubi February 11. 2/5, but it's one of the better of these types of things that I've seen (and I've seen a lot).

99% "Audience" score at Rotten Tomatoes. Rated higher than The Godfather 

Who do they think they are fooling?

If you ever needed proof that RT are rigged, here it is.

RT breaks down audience ration between verified ticket buyers and unverified ones (i.e. people who probably didn't see it but want to rate it either 5 stars or 1 star for political reasons). The 99% is for verified ticket holders. If you include the unverified "Viewers" that RT audience rating drops to 29%.

On the other hand, I can rate "Melania" at IMDb right now without supplying any proof I've seen it, which is why the IMDb rating is low. It's the IMDb rating that's being review-bombed. IMDb ratings are generally less reliable for politically charged movies. (IMDb ratings are great for movies that no one has any reason to go in an rate unseen.)
