As per their official website, CinemaScore has been created with the idea for the cinemagoers to articulate our judgment upon watching a film. It only centers around the discourses that the audiences make, rather than trained film critics. So audiences are given to pick between the options ranging from A+ to F in order to rate a film, purely based on their own judgment.
So in that way, CinemaScore focuses on the voice of the viewers, and a rating is built based on the collective public consensus.
