Those are both fiction. There's a professional expectation that people can't simply review fiction badly because they disagree with the themes of it. D'Souzas films are political "documentaries". They are, by my reckoning, quite bad documentaries, but the 1% is quite clearly because of extreme political bias. Movie reviewers are almost entirely left-wing people. If they were reviewed impartially, they'd probably still get quite bad scores. But 1% is just blatant bias. It's the same kind of thing that lead to the Last Jedi getting 92% from the "professional" reviewers but only 45% from the audience. The reviewers are a group of people who all think alike. |
That sounds kind of interesting and I wouldn't mind reading up on that. What is your source? Was there a survey or did this conclusion come from comprehensive research? A chart would be great, if that's out there. Er, I probably shouldn't have to say this, but I only care about sources that are as unbiased as possible.
You know, though, aren't "bad documentaries" just outright failures? If this is really that awful, shouldn't it have a bad score from everyone? Wouldn't bias be the opposite, where it has positive reviews despite being terrible?
