Buzz: Reagan movie makes history with biggest Rotten Tomatoes gap
Reagan, the new movie about former President Ronald Reagan, with Dennis Quaid in the starring role, has made history — of sorts.
It holds the record for the largest gap between bad reviews from professionals and five-star approvals from those who have watched it. Its Rotten Tomatoes score is a very poor 18 from the professionals and a near-perfect 98 from over 5,000 viewers.
What’s more, it has already taken in over $25 million, more than Oliver Stone’s 2008 presidential biopic W. about former President George W. Bush, which the critics liked and viewers hated.
The film ended its fourth week in theaters in the top 10, holding the No. 8 position with $2 million in box office receipts.
