Do you check Rotten Tomatoes before a movie?
Do you see what a movie has gotten before going to watch it? I do.

Sometimes, but mostly with horror movies since they've become so bad.

Of course. But if I'm looking forward to a movie and it bombs critically, I'll likely give it a watch still. Critics aren't always right.

Nah, if the trailer or promo is interesting to me then I'll just go and see if it's good or not.

No. I do check it after I watch a movie in case I missed something.

I only check it after I watch a movie to see if the opinions of critics really matter.

Sometimes when I'm unfamiliar with what's playing at the moment.

Sometimes. I really only check if I'm seeing a movie on a whim or seeing something with a friend that I had no interest in seeing myself. It'd have to take an awful RT score to change my mind on something I was already planning to go to.

If I really want to see it (like Blair Witch) I could care less about the reviews.
Most everything else though, I'll check to see if it's worth my time, or if there a movie off my radar that's really killing it with reviews.

Absolutely not.
I rely more on my friends/family/social media before I would ever consider some damn RT review.
