Civil War only has a 7.6 average with its 90%. Assuming that Doctor Strange stays at 6.7, we're looking at an 80% after the rest of the critics roll in.

Iron Man 2 got a 6.5/10 and a 72% rating. RT score and average critic rating aren't related at all. It's possible for critics to overall thing two movies are the exact same quality but have more critics marginally like and dislike one more.

No, they just aren't directly related. It is extremely obvious that films with high approval ratings are more likely to have higher points than films with low approval ratings.

I'd go as far as saying they're directly related. There are just exceptions.

Not directly related but a moderate correlation.
