This is the problem with aggregated review and the mentality surrounding them. It doesn't mean that it scored an objective 81% score, it means 19% of people didn't like it. Film is art and art is subjective and viewers are not monoliths.

I don't care what Joe Schmoe at the the NYT thinks about a piece of art, the only reviews that matter to me are the ones written by people with similar tastes.
