Ryan EllisHOST
60% is the threshold for freshness.
Ryan EllisHOST
Red Dragon, Tower Heist, and The First Rush Hour are all only in the 60s, so they weren't raved about, but they are the only three flicks in Brett Ratner's career, as a director at least, that are red tomatoes.
Ryan EllisHOST
The Family Man, which I reviewed last Christmas, is only at 54%.

This movie was written by Ted Griffin, who, if you are unfamiliar, wrote Ravenous and Matchstick Men and Rumor Has It and Tower Heist and was the co-producer on Wolf of Wall Street.
Aaron SousaHOST
Doesn't have a super illustrious career, but a decent writer who also was supposed to make his directorial debut on Rumor Has It.
Aaron SousaHOST
And 12 days into production was replaced by Rob Reiner.
