Rottentomatoes.com provides all kinds of critics and reviews for all sorts of Hollywood related information; movies, actors, and more.
The actual database contains over 87,000 movie titles and more than 200,000 reviews. Users can find movies by using the “Tomato Picker”, an interactive movie title browser that allows users to browse through the different movie titles on the database by genre, tomatometer (movies can be classified in rotten or fresh, those which are catalogued as fresh are those movies who have received a 60% or more of better reviews), MPAA rating, era & decade, and year. Or you can either make a simple search by typing a keyword at the search field powered by Google, or even make an advanced search to narrow results down. But that’s not it as you can also look for news, features, top movies, celebrities critics, or by certified fresh (Movies with a Tomatometer of 75% or better and at least 40 reviews from Tomatometer Critics), sort reviews by rating, quote, source, or author, actor and actress filmographies, with their average Tomatometer rating and awards history. The site also provides expanded coverage for movies in theatres, openings, upcoming, box office and multimedia. Still, this site is more than a mere information provider as it also allows users to look for DVD and VHS, which users can easily look for by simply entering the title of the movie into the search bar, then scroll down the search results to find the correct listing and click on it. This should bring up the movie package for your movie, click on the tab marked “DVD | VHS”, from there, choose the available format you are looking for – VHS or DVD and you’ll get a list of retailers that are selling the video in the chosen format, click on a retailer’s listing to buy the video from that retailer, or click on “See All – Stores & Prices” for more retailers and prices. Though you can only compare prices of movies, you can purchase other items such as soundtracks, or posters (it re-directs you to allposters.com).
