Rat Race is 45% and I don't know why. Audience score is 64%.
The whole Barbie Museum bit was just fantastic. Makes me laugh just thinking back on it.
It was a remake of sorts of It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World. Many of of the critics that hated it could have been doing so comparing it to the 1963 movie while the audience may have not cared and loved the update with contemporary comedic actors.
To many critics (who watch an insane number of movies) some tropes may seem overused or unoriginal.
Also holy crap, the original was nearly 3 hours long... Guess I'll have to check it out now. That one shows 71% critic and 83% audience scores.
My brother is a huge Whoopi Golberg fan so we actually saw it opening weekend. Yes, it's derivative, but just too many bits of hilarity to not live it. And we constantly quote rowan Atkinson's line to each other. "Eetza Race!!" "I'm weeeeening!"
