How this list works

Every number comes from the film's own Fuzzy Mushroom page. The Pros is our combined score from professional reviews; The Punters is our combined score from public ratings. Each review site's habits (some score high, some low) are ironed out first, so the two camps can be compared fairly. The Spore Score sits between them. How the Spore Score works.

Lists rebuild automatically every few hours, so positions move as new reviews and ratings arrive. Last updated 15 November 2026.
