Because while it isn't as high as Goodfellas, it still has something like 87%. I am not saying I am right, but I genuinely want to clarify because I recall this movie being largely praised by critics when it came out. I also remember some critics complaining about it, and I see there is a negative Pauline Kael but I also see positive reviews from other critics at that time. Ebert gave it 4 stars for example, saying it was "...a simple story, magnificently told" (just worth nothing as well that the listed dates don't seem to match, that Kael review is listed as 2022 but since she died in 2001, I am pretty certain that was her review when the movie came out). Is it possible people are misremembering Dances with Wolves as being poorly reviewed? I think everyone kind of agrees, then and now, that Goodfellas got robbed. I just don't know that it was universally regarded as this mediocre film by critics. And to be clear, I can't stand Dances with Wolves so I am not defending it as a movie. I just want to get an accurate handle on how it was received when released</p></blockquote><p></p>
