10 Most Divisive Movies Of 2016

10. Suicide Squad

Proof if there ever was of the often huge gulf between the opinions of film critics and us mere plebeian moviegoers, Suicide Squad scored itself a rather pitiful 26% rating on Rotten Tomatoes while simultaneously raking in a huge $745.6 million worldwide ranking it amongst one of 2016’s highest grossing movies.

Fans were so outraged by its low rating that they issued a call to arms via petition site Change.org demanding that Rotten Tomatoes be shut down, probably forgetting to take into account that Suicide Squad’s distributors Warner Brothers actually own the site.

To give the critics their dues, Suicide Squad was by no means a brilliant film and fully deserving of some of the flak it got. But on the other hand, it wasn’t nearly as bad as some superhero movies in recent memory (Fantastic Four, anyone?) and could all those moviegoers paying all those millions of dollars in ticket money be that wrong?
