Have you ever seen those movie ads on TV filled with gushing quotes from critics and thought to yourself, “I saw that movie; it was terrible. Where did they find these positive reviews?” If you have, you’re not alone — and you’re going to love ScreenCrush’s newest series, Critics Are Raving!, which balances the cinematic scales with trailers full of slightly more accurate (and slightly more negative) lines from reviews. Real critics. Real quotes. Really bad movies. That’s what’s Critics Are Raving! is all about.

On our 13th episode: It’s our first TV episode! And what better television show to talk about than one of the most widely disliked superhero series of the last couple years. It’s Iron Fist, Netflix and Marvel’s fourth (and least popular) series leading into The Defenders. Viewers have had little patience for its scruffy, unlikable hero, slowly-paced episodes, and its Batman Begins knockoffs. So far it’s got just 18 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, and anecdotally speaking we don’t know too many people who’ve made it all the way to the end of the 13 episodes. So Iron Fist is the perfect topic for the latest Critics Are Raving!

This is our 13th Critics Are Raving! trailer, but there are more on the way — if you’ve got a movie you’d like to see featured, let us know in the comments section below or send us a tweet or Facebook message. In the meantime, check out some past Critics Are Raving! trailers. You will be raving about them when you’re finished.
