Why Rotten Tomatoes Scraper

Most other Rotten Tomatoes scrapers fail you in one of four ways:

• 🗄️ Inaccurate, cached, stale data
• 🧩 Low-detail data — a title and a score, never the consensus, cast, reviews or where to watch
• 💸 Pay more to get the same data — start fees, tiers and paid "enrichment" events
• 🪦 Works today, breaks next month — nobody maintains it

Rotten Tomatoes Scraper is scraped live on every run, priced honestly, and actively maintained.

FAQ

How many titles do I get per search or list?

A search serves 20 titles a page for up to 50 pages, so one phrase yields at most 1,000 titles; browse grids serve 30 a page and go thousands deep. The Actor keeps paging until it has Max Results per Query titles or the site runs out. Titles found twice in a run — the same movie under two searches, or in a search and a browse list — are scraped and billed only once.

What does "Scrape Full Title Pages" add?

The whole title page on top of the card: scores with all-critics, top-critics, all-audience and verified-audience blocks (score, average rating, review and like counts), critics_consensus, content_rating_reasons, synopsis, credits, production with box office, release dates, backdrop, the primary trailer, cast with roles, where_to_watch with affiliate deep links, the 6 latest critic_reviews and audience_reviews, videos, photos, more_like_this — and for TV shows seasons with each season's score. Pasted title URLs are always scraped in full; a season URL (/tv/stranger_things/s01) adds the episode list, an episode URL its own scores.

Which lists can I browse?

The same grids the site shows: movies streaming at home, in theaters, coming soon, TV series, and the Top Box Office ranking (rows carry rank). Filter by genre, Tomatometer (Certified Fresh / Fresh / Rotten), Popcornmeter (Verified Hot / Upright / Spilled) and streaming service (Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV+, Max, Hulu, Disney+, Paramount+, Peacock…), sort 7 ways. You can also paste a browse URL straight from the site — its list and filters are read from the link.

What are the People, Autocomplete, Articles and Homepage modes?

People searches actors, directors and other film people by name — one row each with slug, headshot, filmography size and latest title year. Autocomplete returns what the search box shows while typing a query: top titles with scores, top people and query completions. Articles returns Rotten Tomatoes editorial news matching each query (or the newest news with no query). Homepage scrapes every carousel of the front page — Movies in Theaters, Coming Soon, New to Rent/Buy, Latest Certified Fresh, RT Recommends… — one row per title with its home_section, no queries needed.

Can I get reviews?

Every detailed row carries the 6 latest critic reviews (critic, publication, Top Critic flag, Fresh/Rotten sentiment, original score, quote, link) and 6 latest audience reviews, plus the total counts. Rotten Tomatoes walls deeper review pagination behind bot protection, so those 6 + 6 are what a page ships.

Is the data live?

Yes. Every run fetches Rotten Tomatoes live — scores, review counts, box office and where-to-watch are as fresh as the site itself.

What does it cost?

$0.001 per title — $1 per 1,000, flat on every plan, with no start fee. Full title pages add $0.001 per title ($2 per 1,000 all in), charged only when the page comes back — if it can't be fetched you keep the card at the standard rate. People, autocomplete, article and homepage rows cost the standard rate. Apify's free plan gives you $5 of credit every month, which is 5,000 titles or 2,500 fully-detailed titles free every month.

Is it legal to scrape Rotten Tomatoes?

The Actor collects publicly available title data — scores, consensus, credits, reviews and posters — without personal information beyond the public names of cast, crew and critics. Please review Rotten Tomatoes' terms of use and make sure your use complies with the law of your jurisdiction.

Can I get celebrity profiles or critics?

Not with this Actor — it is built for titles. Message us below if you need celebrity filmographies, critic profiles or the critics directory and we will sort you out.
