The gist of it is that the plot isn't very crisp, the humor isn't very funny, and it is generally underwhelming.
It doesn't sound like a complete stinker, at least, and the timing of its release (Memorial Day weekend) should give it a strong opening even with subpar reviews, so it might still be fine for the top five.
Plus it has Will Smith. I think the more important number on RT to look at is the "want to see" rating, which is right now at 95%. Compared to the others on my top 5 list (which sucks since it doesn't have Avengers on it) it's looking golden.
Battleship - 85%
Brave - 95%
Prometheus - 98%
Dark Knight Rises - 94% (bet that keeps going up)
Ones not on my list..but just for the hell of it
Amazing Spiderman - 92%
Madagascar - 93%
Snow White/huntsman - 90%
Ice Age - 93%
Total Recall - 95% (really?)
Bourne Legacy - 84% (that's about what I expected for Total Recall)
GI Joe - 95% (damn teenagers! Are they the only ones voting?)
Abraham Lincoln/vampire - 85%
Well..after looking at some of those numbers (still can't believe TR gets 95%) maybe that's not a great foreseer...but I wished I had looked at them before I cast my votes. I bet Avengers was way, way up there.
