Some visionary auteurs weren't always seen that way by critics, and some of the greatest directors of all time have tons of movies rated "rotten" on Rotten Tomatoes. British director Guy Ritchie has already released two movies this year, and their Rotten Tomatoes performances perfectly sum up the filmmaker's relationship with the website. One of his 2023 movies is the "rotten" Operation Fortune, and the other is the "fresh" The Covenant. Not only is The Covenant rated "fresh," but at 83%, it's the highest score Ritchie has ever gotten. The score is vindication for the hardworking director, but Ritchie isn't the only great filmmaker who has tons of "rotten"-rated movies.
