Not really surprising, this is just confirmation of what's been apparent for a while - Audience score is an accurate estimate of the movie, and the tomatometer (the critic score) basically just reflects the political correctness / marketing budget of the movie.

I think your statement is quite a bit more correct if you just remove the "political correctness" option. Critic scores are based on marketing budgets - award shows in particular are funded by immense amounts of prestige lobbying.

Critics are definitely sensitive to, for lack of a bettet word, elitist themes. I don't mean to say that they reflect the elite, but rather an elite.

Which is kind of inevitable because how else would you choose who becomes a critic other than choosing someone whose idea of quality is at least somewhat close to those of the artists, producers and other critics.
