We Don’t throw rotten tomatoes at the screen with these movies because they are the top 12 movies of the past 25 years!
In recognition of Rotten Tomatoes’ 25th anniversary critics voted on the Top 12 films of the last 25 years. It is amazing to think that some of these movies are now a quarter of a century old. Some of them can be seen rerunning daily on your cable or streaming service because they have stood the test of cinema time.
These are not rotten at all!
The best reasons we watch these great movies over and over is because they are highly rated on the website rotten tomatoes. The concept behind the website and its ranking system is unique. Movies are ranked on audience reviews not some lofty critic in New York or Hollywood telling us whether or not we should see it.
Thumbs up or down
Before the rotten tomatoes system of ranking movies based on the public’s feelings of them. We would rely on critics like Siskel and Ebert, who would simply talk about the movies on their weekly show. They would give the movie either a thumbs up or thumbs down. That was all we needed. They’ve been gone a long time and the internet was in its infancy when their show went off the air.
Have you seen all 12?
As you look at the list, you should keep in mind how many of these you have seen. If you are like our family, you are always looking for something to watch on one of these streaming services. So if anything, else, use this list as something to consider when you’re looking for a movie to watch on movie night.
Grab your popcorn and not the tomatoes!
We bet that you will not agree that these are the 12 best movies since 2000 because you will see that there are movies from the comedic field that are not represented. Movies like the hangover, wedding crashers, bridesmaids and so many more. But remember these are movies that scored the highest ranking on the website rotten tomatoes.
