And what point is that?

The truth is that critics (the number of which is proportional to its time of release) recommend Spy Kids more than they would recommend Civil War. That's if you believe in the RT system. I don't since I don't think critics are just opinions among millions of others and are more prone to bias than regular users (non-fanboys).

False.  To date, Spy Kids only has 126 reviews averaging at 7.2; Civil War has 297 reviews averaging at 7.6.  At the time when Civil War had 126 reviews, it had a 94 rating from critics vs the 93 Spy Kids presently has.  Furthermore, Spy Kids only pulls a 46% approval from the Audience averaging a 2.6, whereas Civil War has a 91 averaging 4.4.

I know that you REALLY, really want to craft a Strawman Argument here, but a cursory glance at the review scores objectively disproves your claim that Spy Kids is better received on RT than Civil War.  It is a very poor attempt at a Strawman.

Now, do try to stay on topic.  This is Civil War surpassing BvS (you know, those two superhero Versus Movies released by rival companies targeting the same audience and within 2 months of one another?) as the topic; not Civil War surpassing Spy Kids.  

No need to cook up any argument since my "at the time of release" was about the total number of reviews which was lower back then than now. In any case, Spy Kids has a higher approval rating than Civil War, which must be confounding if you like RT.

BvS is only the 2nd movie in the DCCU. It'll get there - just like it took forever for the MCU to get to $800M+ movies.

But Disney wil be disappointed in CW's performance.
