The “Melania” documentary has sparked a massive divide between critics and audiences on Rotten Tomatoes, with a staggering 87% difference in scores. Critics panned the film (11%), while verified ticket buyers raved about it (98%). This gap surpasses previous record holders like “Five Nights at Freddy’s 2” and “Emilia Pérez.” The article suggests that critics often favor challenging, unconventional films, while audiences prefer familiar, crowd-pleasing fare. However, it also points out that negative audience reviews may be driven by ideological biases, particularly towards films with female or minority leads, urging caution when interpreting both scores.
