The audience score praises the biopic's action.
Summary SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT Critics and audience reviews are at odds regarding Neill Blomkamp's Gran Turismo. The film unveils the true story of Jann Mardenborough, a teenager who forged a path to professional racing and the GT Academy through playing the titular racing simulation game.
Reviews appearing on Rotten Tomatoes show a divide between audience members and critics in terms of the film's efficacy. While the upcoming Gran Turismo received nearly a perfect score of 98 percent from over 250 audience ratings, the movie's critics' score only reached 58 percent from 99 reviews at the time of writing.
Why There Is A Difference Between Rotten Tomatoes Scores Perhaps the target audience for the movie may be contributing to this disparity. First released in 1997, Gran Turismo has had several subsequent standard and anniversary editions and have become one of PlayStation's most lucrative franchises. Gran Turismo plays on the game's popularity, mimicking its racing track and emphasizing special effects, perhaps to an even greater effect than most action movies.
David Harbour may also help explain the film's popularity among audiences. No stranger to action, Harbour has been featured in series and films such as Stranger Things, Black Widow, and Hellboy. The inclusion of Harbour helped cement the film as a lucrative project, with him playing another leader-type role that may have drawn comparisons to his past work and in turn garnered audience approval.
While gaming call-backs and feel-good story tropes may not impress critics, these devices likely appealed to the majority of those hoping to see the game adapted to film. Gran Turismo can have mass appear through elements of an underdog story that relate not only to players of the game, but those looking for escapism through the summer blockbuster season.
