Voting Rules

Vote up the 2025 films you'd happily defend against the naysayers.

Sometimes, the movies most worth watching are the ones on which audiences and critics vastly disagree. This can come from the films being controversial even before they're released (Disney's live-action Snow White) to films whose target audience is just looking for a dumb but fun time and not terribly concerned about its cinematic merit (A Minecraft Movie). The following films from 2025 have Tomatometers (critics) and Popcornmeters (Rotten Tomatoes users) whose scores are on opposite ends of the site's review spectrum - with one thinking the film is “Fresh” and the other claiming it's “Rotten.” But which score is actually right? Vote up the divisive movies you love despite the hate they get.
