This weekend's new wide-release comedy offering has achieved the rare feat of a near-perfect score on the review aggregator service Rotten Tomatoes.
Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret has debuted with a near-perfect Rotten Tomatoes score. The film is an adaptation of the 1970 coming-of-age novel of the same name by Judy Blume, which follows a young girl with a Christian mother and a Jewish father who is dealing with issues of faith, puberty, friendship, and family. The film, which premiered in theaters this weekend, stars Abby Ryder Fortson as Margaret, Rachel McAdams and Benny Safdie as her parents, and Kathy Bates as her grandmother.
SCREENRANT VIDEO OF THE DAY SCROLL TO CONTINUE WITH CONTENT This weekend, Rotten Tomatoes has officially tabulated the score for the Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret movie. The film officially has a 99 percent score, just 1 point shy of perfection. Although the score could potentially fluctuate as more reviews are added, with 114 critics sharing their thoughts, the number is statistically significant enough for the service to have already declared it Certified Fresh.
Will This Score Translate to Box Office for Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret? This glowing praise for the new film will certainly help guide viewers who were on the fence about seeing it. In addition to its incredible critics' score, which is Rotten Tomatoes' best major non-100 score since the 2021 film Happening, audiences are also giving it a strong score of 96 percent. However, it remains to be seen if the film's commercial prospects will increase because of this.
Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret is already destined not to top the chart this weekend. The Super Mario Bros. Movie box office laid claim to that spot long ago as it continues its reign over theaters on its way to raking in $1 billion. However, Margaret is currently projected to overtake its wide-release competitor Big George Foreman.
It's entirely possible that this score could help Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret could become something of a sleeper hit. It seems unlikely that it will ever climb to No. 1, considering the next few weekends see the releases of blockbuster tentpoles Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3 and Fast X. However, the film could stick around in the Top 5 and keep grabbing audiences who aren't in the core demographics for those franchise outings.
