This seems to be a limitation of the Rotten Tomatoes API used

overseerr/server/api/rottentomatoes.ts

Lines 48 to 57 in c8c74b0

	/**
	* This is a best-effort API. The Rotten Tomatoes API is technically
	* private and getting access costs money/requires approval.
	*
	* They do, however, have a "public" api that they use to request the
	* data on their own site. We use this to get ratings for movies/tv shows.
	*
	* Unfortunately, we need to do it by searching for the movie name, so it's
	* not always accurate.

Correct. The matching is best effort. Two movies with the same release year and nearly same name. We can do some refinements to the matching in the RT search results to try and avoid this. But I will need to think about how.
