Excuse the plugging of my own wares, but by coincidence I did some analysis the other day of the disparity between User/Critic ratings of movies on RottenTomatoes: http://benjaminlmoore.wordpress.com/2014/05/05/what-are-the-...

Example: "Spy Kids" got a 93% fresh rating from critics, but 45% from audience ratings.

Code attached should you want to investigate for yourself.

If you look at the Average Ratings, the difference is smaller, though: the critics gave it 7.2/10 while the audience gave it 5.2/10.
That's really really awesome, thank you for sharing.
