10 movies the critics were wrong about..

7. Patch Adams

Here’s another Robin Williams movie that was hated by critics and loved by audiences. It has an abysmal 22% rating on Rotten Tomatoes and an even lower top critic rating of just 19%. It was criticized for being too sappy and sentimental. However, audiences certainly didn’t see it that way. Moviegoers were enamored by the performances of Robin Williams and Phillip Seymour Hoffman.

The film has an audience score of 74% on Rotten Tomatoes. Despite the poor critical ratings, the movie went on to become a box office hit grossing over $200 million worldwide. It even was nominated for two Golden Globes – for the movie itself and for William’s performance. So, some critics must have liked it.
