Let's Talk About... Rotten Tomato Reviews for Independent Films
This post is going to be a doozie, so buckle up: I"m sure you've got questions.
Love them or hate them, Rotten Tomatoes reviews are here to stay and if you want your film to thrive and get in front of audiences, you unfortunately have to play the game. Rotten Tomatoes is partnered with most if not all of the movie-distributing platforms, Amazon, Google, Apple, etc., and their scores are used to push your film to people on their platforms.
This post will talk about how to get verified reviews, what you need to become CERTIFIED FRESH, and when you should start chasing RT reviews.
This is where I have to paywall the post for my paid subscribers only. But if you want to read more, consider becoming a paid subscriber. A subscription to this Substack costs less than $1 a week if you pay for the full year ($50) or it’s $5/month. Feel free to reach out to me to for a consultation regarding your film if you need more.
