Rotten Tomatoes
An American website called Rotten Tomatoes gathers movie and television reviews. Senh Duong, Patrick Y. Lee, and Stephen Wang, three University of California, Berkeley undergraduate students, founded the business in August 1998. Although spectators often hurl rotten tomatoes after subpar theatrical performances, Duong, Lee, and Wang's idea for the moniker "Rotten Tomatoes" was actually directly influenced by a similar sequence in the 1992 Canadian movie Léolo.
The Tomatometer, which is based on the percentage of favorable reviews from a chosen group of critics, is the ranking system used by Rotten Tomatoes. For a movie or TV show to get a Tomatometer score, at least five reviews are required. A movie or TV show is deemed "Fresh" if it receives a Tomatometer score of 60% or higher, and it is deemed "Rotten" if it receives a score of 59% or below.
For moviegoers and TV watchers looking for information about the newest entertainment releases, Rotten Tomatoes is a great resource. A range of news items concerning movies and TV shows are published on the website. New releases, box office updates, casting news, and behind-the-scenes details are just a few of the topics covered in these articles. Interviews with actors, directors, and other members of the entertainment business are also published on Rotten Tomatoes.
