However, Qritic adds the useful element of weighting each rating that goes into the score by the similarity of the rater to your ratings of several movies. The result is a personalized list of movies that you may like. If you like Metacritic, you might have a look at another website, Qritic.com, which also aggregates movie ratings into composite scores.

A weighted average of critic scores is MUCH more precise than a ratio of "fresh" to "rotten". It's beyond me that RT gives a 2 out of 4 stars a "rotten" grade. Sounds about middle of the road to me! Metacritic gives that an intuitive 50/100. Kudos to the Metacritics! Metacritic’s scoring system is vastly superior to that of Rotten T’s.
