RT's value prop has never been "a good score indicates a technically/artistically good film". It's just "how'd the critics we track like the movie?"
If it's over 80%, I can reasonably assume I'll enjoy it. If it's below 30%, I should probably figure out if it fits my particular "critically panned but I'd love it" quirks before shelling out $15 for a theater outing.
