"...second rate reviewers and glorified bloggers..." -That's a bit harsh, don't you think?

A good cross section of reviewer opinions at Rotten Tomatoes ...and most of the critics have solid credentials with nationally syndicated newspapers and established magazines if you bother to check... may not be 100% accurate based upon your impression of the film should you choose to see it, but it usually provides the cinema enthusiast with enough information to decide if a particualar film is worth his or her time and money.

More often than not, the Tomato-meter is fairly accurate, but there are always exceptions. In my estimation War of The Worlds is about right, but Fantastic Four was much better than the 25% accorded it by a cross section of reviewers; not great, but pretty good. Again, that's the exception, not the rule. As you can see I gave your remarks a rotten review (see icon above), but it's only one film goer's opinion and always subject to change. :o)

Cheers,
