audience score

Crowd's film verdict

An audience score is a rating derived from general viewers' opinions of a film, show, or performance, as opposed to critics' professional reviews.

The term is most associated with Rotten Tomatoes, where the audience score appears alongside the critics' score: The movie bombed with critics but has an 85% audience score.

A wide gap between the two often sparks debate about whether professional reviewers are out of touch.
