Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

The Matrix Revolutions.

Released in the same year as Reloaded, which I don't think a movie series of that caliber has been done in a long time or since. But we got two Matrix sequels in one year. Reloaded has gotten a little more accepted as time went on but people are still divided on Revolutions. I quite frankly, thought the mainline series couldn't have ended on more of a note than it did. A lot of the content has gone over everyone's heads, even at the time, because it was all techy-techy stuff and had biblical themes in it as well. But if you look at the entire Matrix series as you would TRON, it makes a little more sense.

I get the hate that it gets, and could very easily have been part of one movie as opposed to 2. However, I still think the trilogy is great. It had me digging in the matrix tunnels for years trying to learn more about it.

Revolutions is definitely the weakest of the original trilogy, but it's still awesome. Sucks that they had to recast the Oracle, and the Dragonball Z shit at the end is kind of super silly, but all of the mech action and shit in Zion is exactly why I go to the movies.
