rotten.indah.link

Movie reviews are as influential as word of mouth recommendations when it comes to deciding which film to watch next.

One of the web's most popular sites for providing movie ratings is Rotten Tomatoes, which aggregates a percentage score for each particular movie, based on its Fresh versus Rotten review calculator.

However, due to the relative ease of a movie receiving a 100 percent rating after a few reviews, each film listed here has a minimum of 40 ratings, meaning every flick is also Certified Fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. Here are 30 films that hold a prestigious 100 percent rating.
