Rotten Tropes
Discover movie tropes before you watch a film
Rotten Tropes tags new movie releases with recurring narrative patterns like Power Always Corrupts, The Chosen One, Violence Gets Results, or Love Conquers All, so you can pick films by the messages you want and skip the ones you've seen too often. Mark any trope as loved or avoided, and the site surfaces matching releases while hiding the rest.
Built for people who notice the same patterns repeating across blockbusters (Letterboxd list-makers, TVTropes readers, or anyone who's googled 'movies that aren't another chosen-one story'). Search any film for its tropes, browse this week's pre-tagged releases, or use the Trope Explainer to learn what each pattern means and which films use it.
