TV shows and movies are already compressed. If you try to compress something that’s already compressed, it typically ends up bigger if anything.

(I know I’m full of shit, even when I’m writing the comment).

This says more about RT’s flawed ratings system than it does the quality of this movie. ‘80% Fresh’ just mean 80% of critics thought it was watchable (so it applies if there were 5 critics, and 4 said ‘meh’ and 1 said ‘bad’). The AVClub gave it a C+, which is the kind of rating that RT regards as Fresh from some publications and Rotten from others.

I’ve no idea why people are trying to Jack Quaid a thing, he was already a thing as soon as he was born to his famous parents.

I watched a TV show called ‘Justified: City Primeval’ - it’s not very good, but something I found weird was how often the characters mentioned each other’s race I’m from the UK, so maybe it was just badly written, or maybe Americans do actually talk like that.

No, you’re right. It’s just how it sounds with Sanders’ distinct accent.
