CinemaScore also gave these scores:
Catwoman: B The Crow (2024): B-
Madame Web: C+
Batman & Robin: C+
Morbius: C+
Fantastic Four (2015): C-
Borderlands: D+

They seem really generous with their scoring

They seem really generous with their scoring

CinemaScore polls audiences and presents that data in the form of an A to F rating. They don’t do subjective ratings or reviews. The score is intended to be a measure of the average audience sentiment to a film.

Yeah, I read that on there; I guess I should have said the audiences they polled are really generous with their scoring

It's polling of the audience done only on the first night, so the majority of the people being polled were interested enough in the movie in the first place to go see it opening night without proper reviews. Most movies will have an inflated Cinemascore.

The fact their audience gave Catwoman, one of the most embarrassingly bad things I have ever seen, a B means literally everything that comes from them is useless. What an astonishing fuck up, that film is every single thing wrong with bad comic book movies distilled it's an embarrassment that should've ended careers.

Madame Web was the most fun I've had in a theater since before the pandemic. I did not outlast 10 other people in that theater just to allow someone to slander that masterpiece!
