I noticed the new M:I movie is at 99% after 140 reviews and more than likely maybe 3 more critics might give it a sour rating just to be a different for different sake. I assume this happens also with duds also but if you had to guess how many of these critics actually watch the movie instead of copy n pasting reviews.
When do you think critics as community start skipping movies

I would imagine that most critics do watch the films they are assigned to review. And I would think that something with relatively positive word of mouth, like the new M:I film, would be one you wouldn't skip.
And I don't think that bad reviews are always different just to be different. It makes sense that even if something is widely liked, a few people genuinely won't like it.

Do you have a review that you can cite that you believe is just someone copying another person's review?

Tldr version:
If a movie got blasted with an enormous amount of negative reviews and lauded as a craptastic film, so much so that a whole generation of movie watchers avoided as the eye plague, only to find out years later said critics admit they lied and didn't even watch it after a decent size of crappy reviews to save personal time to enjoy their lives instead of wasting (in their opinion) time on a crap movie. I promise this isn't a hit piece on any said person who does or doesn't do film reviews for a living, just a curious thought of others opinion on how often this happens in the film review business.

The critics were captured a long time ago. The mask slipped when the Tomato-Meter radically shifted from audience ratings. The homogeneity of critical reviews is a predictable consequence of so much money riding on bigger and bigger movies that have to make a ton of money very quickly. We've seen the same thing happen in the video game industry. It's a joke.
I can't cite a particular review but I've noticed if a movie on RT is somewhere in the range of 40 -50 reviews and none are bad reviews the next 150 - 200 seem to be similar in their praise and almost alike.
