When you’re on a budget and trying to wisely decide which movie you’ll spend your precious penny on, Rotten Tomatoes is the place to be.

But if you’re trying to relive classic kids cinema from the ’90s and need someone to share the magic, Rotten Tomatoes is not your site.

Critics practically ripped through celebrated G to PG-rated movies from the ’90s and if you were a kid at the time, you should be righteously outraged. Of course, the Audience Scores for most of these movies tend to be higher, which proves the power will always be with the people.

But it would be cute if the critics shared the love.

Hit the flip for some memorable kids movies from the ’90s that might’ve completely flew over the heads of the too grown movie buffs.

We’re Back: A Dinosaur’s Story (1993)

38%

Sure The Land Before Time gave us talking dinosaurs, but We’re Back gave us talking AND singing dinos. Listen to “Roll Back The Rock” and tell me you won’t be singing along with the T-Rex.

Home Alone 2 (1992)

32%

Yes, it’s basically the same plot as the first Home Alone, but who doesn’t love New York!

Blank Check (1994)

9%

Yes the lead kid had a slightly inappropriate relationship with a grown woman. And yes the flick resembled another kid vs. criminals movie (hey Home Alone). But what kid doesn’t want to watch a movie where an eleven-year-old splurges on thousands of dollars, including buying a house, a water slide and a massive tub of ice cream.

Sister Act 2: Back In The Habit (1993)

7%

So critics basically don’t like singing. Got it.

First Kid (1996)

23%

Arguably one of Sinbad‘s best roles….despite him basically playing the emotional mule for a privileged White kid the whole time. But come on, that dance tutorial scene? Classic.

The Little Rascals (1994)

23%

Alfalfa singing “You Are So Beautiful” to Darla on that boat? Alfalfa standing up for love in spite of The He-Man Woman Haters Club. ICONIC.

Space Jam(1996)

43%

HOW?! They’re shooting a remake for goodness sakes. Clearly greatness.

101 Dalmatians (1996)

39%

Glenn. Close. Was. Iconic. In. This. Movie.

How. Did. It. Get. A. Bad. Rating.

The Mighty Ducks (1992)

23%

I mean COME ON. Remember the Titans. The Sandlot. MIGHTY DUCKS.

Good Burger  (1997)

32%

If you don’t laugh out loud at least once while watching this movie, you’re not a human being. Yes it’s completely ignant at times, but the cameos are LEGENDARY. Sinbad, George Clinton, Shaq, Carmen Electra. Still on repeat in 2019.
