Why people are using Metacritic instead of Rotten Tomatoes? While Meta is fine for games, its scores are usually ridiculously bad for movies. Rotten Tomatoes is way more accurate.

Rotten Tomatoes is actually a poor source, as they only use positive versus negative.  So a movie could be getting 6s across the board (not sure where they actually draw the positive line) but have a really high fresh rating.

I don't think the reviewers are genuine. How would you know if they are.

Simple.  If they spend part of the review bashing detractors as bigoted, sexist trolls, they have an agenda to push and their review shouldn't count.  Like the one in the OP.

Not to mention literally anyone can make an account as a critic.
