The example you cite, however, is an argument for Rotten Tomatoes system; as the FiveThirtyEight article notes, the movie has a "great" 78% among critics. This is due to the RT score being a weight of reviews which have been flattened to thumbsup-thumbsdown.

Not really. It's only a "great" among critics because critics were more favorable than audiences (or rather, the movie was less polarizing for critics). But the criticisms that FiveThirtyEight has are still valid, and you can easily imagine a movie that is polarizing among critics with 50% of them giving a 10 and 50% of them giving a 1.
