Although most Americans know him for playing the affable Officer Rhodes in "Bridesmaids" (2011), Chris O'Dowd was already a major star in Britain prior to his breakthrough performance in the Judd Apatow-produced wedding comedy. As the star of the British sitcom, "The IT Crowd" (Channel 4, 2006-2010), O'Dowd played a socially awkward computer geek named Roy. The show made O'Dowd a household name in Britain, and before long he was being courted by Hollywood, appearing in brief but memorable roles in such films as "Pirate Radio" (2009), "Dinner for Shmucks" (2010) and "Gulliver's Travels" (2010). But it was O'Dowd's role as the love interest of Kristen Wiig's character in "Bridesmaids" that made him a bona-fide Hollywood star. That film would go on to gross nearly $300 million at the box office in the summer of 2011, firmly minting Chris O'Dowd as one of the film world's newest big-screen funnymen.

Known for his role as Officer Nathan Rhodes in the hit 2011 film Bridesmaids, Chris O'Dowd is a popular Irish actor and comedian who attended the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. His film and TV credits include The IT Crowd, Girls, Friends with Kids, This Is 40 and Thor: The Dark World.
A number of these films also appear on the AFI's 100 Years... 100 Movies lists, but there are many others and several entries with dozens of positive reviews, which are considered surprising to some experts. To date, Paddington 2 holds the site's record, with an approval rating of 100% and 214 positive reviews.
Citizen Kane (1941), starring and directed by Orson Welles, has topped several international polls, including five consecutive decades at number 1 in the British Film Institute's Sight and Sound decennial poll of critics.
Melissa McCarthy ad-libbed one of the most emotional scenes in 'Bridesmaids' McCarthy made up lines like having the clearance codes and fire crackers being thrown at her head. Director Paul Feig said originally, Annie talks out her issues with a collection-agency worker.
While the movie never fully explains why a Midwestern police officer has an Irish accent, it turns out it was O'Dowd's native tongue that helped him land the part. I went in and did it with an American accent, like I do in most auditions, the actor told Access Hollywood.
So when a movie such as “Black Panther” gets a certified “fresh” 97 percent on Rotten Tomatoes, we interpret it as a film that is near perfection, while a film such as last year's “The Emoji Movie” that lands around 9 percent, must be a steaming pile of garbage.
If 60% of reviews are positive, the movie is given a “Fresh” status, but if positive reviews fall below that benchmark, it is deemed “Rotten.” A popular piece of media will typically fall between the 70-90% range, but rarely, a project will receive a 100% score.
