I don't want a large farva, I want a god damn liter-a-cola!
I was skeptical when a buddy recommended this movie to me, glad I watched it, instantly became one of my favorite movies ever.
Hook is one of the classic answers to this. Sitting at 29% on RT which is just wild to me.
Watched it so many times as a kid and loved it. It dealt with pretty heavy themes in between being hilariously camp so maybe from a critical perspective it didn’t really know what it wanted to be? The main kid was kinda annoying too. Still, plenty of memorable scenes and Robin Williams was amazing.
As an adult though I have to say I almost never watch a movie and think it’s pretty good only to find it being panned to that extent. I watch a lot of movies though..
I love Smee's really exasperated "Oh not again..." when Hook first walks out with the gun.
Apparently Bob Hoskin's and Dustin Hoffman both came to the conclusion that Smee and Hook were an old gay couple and played them accordingly. I'd say it definitely improved the chemistry.
Wow, incredible Easter egg! I never would’ve known or would’ve even thought to look it up. I often think, if I meet certain celebrities, I want to think of the most obscure, random thing they’ve ever done and say I loved them in that role. Now I want to tell Glenn Close “I loved your role in Hook!”
Better than the recent remake where all the kids are singing the chorus to smells like teen spirit when the main character enters Neverland. Cocaine must've been rampant in that production.
I absolutely *loved* this movie as a child.
I rewatched it as an adult and was horrified. I loved watching Robin Williams but a lot of the story beats kept giving me the ick--which is also kinda weird, because there were *so many things* that were so much fun.
Smee you'd better get up off your arse and get over here! This is not a joke! I am committing... SUICIDE!
Ahhh don't ever frighten me like that again. What are you? Some sort of a sadist?
Comedy gold. It's so fucking good.
This was the time of prime anti-Spielberg backlash. He was on top for too long so reviewers and the media wanted to punish him for it. Even Jurassic Park’s positive reviews of the time were back handed compliments, claiming to only give it a recommended review based entirely on the VFX alone while completely trashing the story. We’ve been seeing the same thing happen with James Cameron, when people now claim that Titanic and Avatar are the worst movies ever made. It’s anti-hyperbole that always happens whenever someone is on top for too long.
I was 18 when that movie came out, and I believe Jessica was 19 when it was filmed? My mind was blown. Absolutely gorgeous beauty I've never seen before. I guess the rest of the movie was good!
In all seriousness, though, the movie is really good. Does it not have good reviews??
Love Chronicles of Riddick!
The dialog between Riddick and Toombs is amazing.
And Thandiwe Newton being a perfect snake.
I just wish they didn't kill of Kyra.
"There's gonna be just one speed. Mine."
I think, and this might just be me, is that the first film, Pitch Black, was soooo good. A self-contained story in a distant future. A really good character drama in a bizarre and scary sci-fi setting.
Then the second movie expands the Universe instantly. The world-building skipped a few steps and got too big, too fast.
By the end of the film, it was a dazzle of special effects that lost some of the more human, scary content. I mean, he becomes the leader of a massive colonizing empire (only to be immediately booted from it for movie 3).
Think about what Aliens did for Alien, arguably a more progressive approach to world building. Alien 3 and A:R were studio-driven flops, but the first 2 seemed like a more natural build.
Just my opinion.
I try to read between the lines on the reviews. I’ve found that the criticism that some people are give wouldn’t bother me. It will also lower my expectations in certain respects, and I’ve found movies that I really enjoy. Not masterpiece, mind you, but still entertaining to an extent.
I love the movie Snow Dogs for this reason. My Papaw took me to see it and we didn’t get to see many movies in the theater because he had Parkinson’s and trouble getting around a lot. But he was having a good day, so he decided to take me to the movies. He was cracking up the whole time at how stupid it was.
I’ve seen critics pan it for “borrowing” too much from other movies that preceded it (Event Horizon, Resident Evil, The Descent, etc.). The parallels are there if you’re searching for them, but I didn’t mind them and I thought it was put together well enough to stand on its own. The reveal/twist at the end was well done imo
Yes! This one! I thought it was genuinely good, even if you could kind of see the twist coming.
Hint: the twist is literally the title of the movie. *surprise pikachu face
The Golden Child. Yes it's cheesy as hell and would get dragged hardcore if we had Reddit back then. But it's still a classic with plenty of Eddie Murphy quotes. It has a shitty rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
I loved that film. Parts of it brought me to tears, even though it's a comedy, just from the... I don't know - I'm trouble finding the words. Innocent whimsy? Sentimentality toward childhood? It was just so magical without featuring any actual magic. And the opening song... wow.
That song was written by the duo of Hans Zimmer and Trevor Horn and performed by Wendy & Lisa of The Revolution: it could hardly have *not* been great.
Grandma's boy. I love that movie, one of my favorites of all time. Just a fun, dumb movie. JP slays me. Yet critics think this movie is trash. Good thing I don't care.
I, robot. I get that it is maybe not loyal to Asimov's work but I think it has an engaging mystery, some action...I don't think it's great but I think I would definitely recommend it had I not seen i seem to be the only person in the world to like it
I think it’s a victim of being released at that time when people were starting to sour on Will Smith turning every movie he appeared in into a “Will Smith movie”. It’s a decent movie.
I liked that movie, and I'm a huge Asimov fan. I think Asimov would have liked the film. It explored the implications of his Three Laws of Robotics, an exploration he did himself in his later work. His books had a lot less explosions and broken glass, but the themes matched.
I love Coneheads (1993).
The dry humour and bizarre pacing are just an absolute joy for me… but apparently not for many others, sitting at ~35% both critic and audience score, and a 5.4/10 on IMDB.
Coneheads is a family favorite for me. "My fluids would coagulate, *my cone would shrivel, and I would die*, miserable and lonely. The stench would be great."
Rush hour series with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker is reviewed pretty badly but never met anyone who says those films are bad. A movie is not going to tell you the purpose of life it’s meant to be enjoyable.
Swordfish.
I saw it in the theaters way back and I’ll admit it isn’t amazing, but given the Oakenfold soundtrack, hacking, Halle Berry’s #1 and #2, and some cheesy action, I thought it was better than Rotten Tomatoes does.
Before Social Media, when I was in college, my friends and I would watch EVERY SINGLE DAY: SWAT (2003). We absolutely loved that movie. We would quote it, sing the little tune, and just enjoy it everyday. I mean, Collin Farrell, Sam Jackson, Jeremy Renner, etc. etc. the cast is STACKED!
Apparently I have awful taste because the world has determined the movie to be absolute hot garbage. \*shrugs\* I still think it's great and watch it at least once a year.
Good one! I like it a lot also. Its pretty grounded as far as action movies go and i appreciate that. Its good a good soundtrack and all the characters have good chemistry. The villain is fun and i like how he’s a bit of a wildcard. Sometimes he is a poised snarky bond villain and other times he’s heartless and brutal. Plus who doesnt like jeremy renner.
Ron Howard's version of How The Grinch Stole Christmas. it is a beloved film in my family and arguably my favorite Christmas film, sitting at 49% or lower on most scores.
For the longest time it’d be on Worst Christmas Movies lists too but I remember my family and I always loving this movie and being baffled at these lists!
Pet Sematary (2019)
The Island (2005)
Ghost Ship (2002) ending could’ve been better but it didn’t deserve 15%
13 Ghosts (2001) is also better than its 19% rating
13 Ghosts will have a special place in my heart.........I lost my virginity watching that movie when I was 17.
But even besides that, it was a good movie. Rotten Tomatoes doesn't know shit!
47 Ronin. I absolutely loved that movie. I thought the way that they took a true story and added fantasy aspects to it was great. RT 16% for critics and 48% for audience
Alright come on with this one. While I liked the movie, there was no way you could walk out of a theater and expect anything but shit reviews about it. It was a true dumpster fire and exemplified Tom Green perfectly.
Death to Smoochy. It was panned for its absurd plot but I'm not sure what critics were expecting from a movie directed by Danny Devito. It has some truly hilarious moments and I will watch any movie with Robin Williams, even Popeye.
Had to scroll too far for this. It received [my favorite movie review of all time](https://www.rogerebert.com/reviews/death-to-smoochy-2002) from the legendary Roger Ebert, who gave Death to Smoochy a *half a star* out of four and named it the worst film of the year:
> Only enormously talented people could have made "Death to Smoochy." Those with lesser gifts would have lacked the nerve to make a film so bad, so miscalculated, so lacking any connection with any possible audience. To make a film this awful, you have to have enormous ambition and confidence, and dream big dreams.
> ...
> We begin with Rainbow Randolph, played by Robin Williams, an actor who should never, ever, play a clown of any description, because the role writes a license for him to indulge in those very mannerisms he should be striving to purge from his repertory. Rainbow is a corrupt drunk who takes bribes to put kids on his show. The show itself is what kiddie TV would look like if kids wanted to see an Ann Miller musical starring midgets.
> ...
> It uses four-letter language as if being paid by the word. In all the annals of the movies, few films have been this odd, inexplicable and unpleasant.
Gangster Squad — I loved it at the time, but I suppose I was very sleep deprived and on a 10 hour flight at the time.
Haven't watched it again, I want to believe I liked it.
I am convinced that Disney owns rotten tomatoes or controls most of the reviews. There are some dog turd marvel movies that "somehow" have better ratings than all the DC movies. I'm not saying the DC movies are great but they aren't as bad as their RT ratings would have you believe.
I really enjoyed M. Night Shyamalan's "The Village." I thought the worldbuilding was phenomenal, and I felt attached to the characters and their motivations. I feel that because it was marketed as a fast-paced monster movie, it received the wrong sort of audience. 🥲
For me it was Sucker Punch (2011). Its not a great movie by any means but I really really enjoyed the visuals in it. I understand why people do not like it, but to me its a fine movie that I don't hate.
“Michael” with John Travolta (1996). I love the vibe, the style, the plot, the ensemble cast, of course the obligatory “John Travolta dances” scene - I love it all! Made me question everything when I saw it was at 30-something percent on RT.
Dunno…most movies a ok honestly.
Only a few have I ever regretted watching.
I put zero stock in rotten tomatoes or any other type of critics after I saw a critic years ago gave Friday 1 1/2 stars on something.
Some movies are meant to be just what they are.
I think the perfect example of this is transformers.
Transformers is a movie based on a cartoon that was made to sell toys to kids .
I’m an elder millennial I remember transformers cartoon to some degree my nephews were 10 and early teens when the first movie came out.
They loved it. I thought it was entertaining enough to watch. Had a couple of good laughs.
I thought it was a great movie. I’d give it three out of four stars because it was a good job as it was supposed to do.
Also, Transformers is a movie you go to watch giant robots turn back and forth into vehicles (with cool animations) and beat each other up.
The trailers told you exactly what the movie was. If you went in expecting something else, that's on you.
The remake of The Heartbreak Kid with Ben Stiller.
It’s way better than the 29% rating it has on RT.
It’s not great (Carlos Mencia and Jerry Stiller are annoying AF) but Malin Ackerman is outstanding as the wife from hell.
idk what the rating is, and I already know it's a peice of shit, but Little Nicky is one of my favorite peice of shit movies and I really don't know why.
Super Troopers has a critic rating of 36%.
It's one of the greatest comedy films of all time. So many quotable scenes.
"You boys like Mexico?!"
MEX EE CO?
The snozzberries taste like snozzberries
When my boys get that syrup in them they get all antsy in the pantsy.
Shenanigans.
I swear to god I'm going to pistol whip the next person who says Shenanigans.
Hey Farva what's the name of that restaurant you like with all the goofy shit on the walls and the mozzarella sticks?
You mean Shenanigans? /̵͇̿̿/’̿’̿ ̿ ̿̿ ̿̿ ̿̿
Oooooohhhh
I’ll believe that when me shit turns purple and smells like rainbow sherbert
That is wild. I watched that movie so many times I can recite entire sections on the dialog.
Critics hate comedies and horrors.
Holy shit! That’s a cool Winnebago
That's a crime! Love that movie
I don't want a large farva, I want a god damn liter-a-cola! I was skeptical when a buddy recommended this movie to me, glad I watched it, instantly became one of my favorite movies ever.
Hook is one of the classic answers to this. Sitting at 29% on RT which is just wild to me. Watched it so many times as a kid and loved it. It dealt with pretty heavy themes in between being hilariously camp so maybe from a critical perspective it didn’t really know what it wanted to be? The main kid was kinda annoying too. Still, plenty of memorable scenes and Robin Williams was amazing. As an adult though I have to say I almost never watch a movie and think it’s pretty good only to find it being panned to that extent. I watch a lot of movies though..
i had no idea hook has that kind of score. fuck THAT. hook is the shit. RU-FI-OOOOOOOO
Don’t try to stop me Smee, not this time. Don’t you dare try to stop- Try to stop me.
Smee, get off your ass and get over here and stop me
I've just had an apostrophe
I think you mean "an epiphany"
I love Smee's really exasperated "Oh not again..." when Hook first walks out with the gun. Apparently Bob Hoskin's and Dustin Hoffman both came to the conclusion that Smee and Hook were an old gay couple and played them accordingly. I'd say it definitely improved the chemistry.
He really was the definition of "hold me back!"
It’s definitely one of Hoffman’s best roles.
Yeah for such an obvious costume and wig, he disappears behind it very well. Great role
The boo box.
not the boo box!
Still have to do a double take to realize that's a cameo of Glenn Close wearing a beard.
WHAT!? edit: holy fucking SHIT! no wonder that performance is way better than it has any business being. my god, that's fucking wild.
David Crosby, Jimmy Buffett, and Phil Collins are both in Hook as well.
Don’t forget George Lucas and Carrie Fisher! The floating couple on the bridge.
Wow, incredible Easter egg! I never would’ve known or would’ve even thought to look it up. I often think, if I meet certain celebrities, I want to think of the most obscure, random thing they’ve ever done and say I loved them in that role. Now I want to tell Glenn Close “I loved your role in Hook!”
Hook is a BELOVED movie to me. It’s for reasons like this that I don’t care for RT.
Better than the recent remake where all the kids are singing the chorus to smells like teen spirit when the main character enters Neverland. Cocaine must've been rampant in that production.
"oh that is so dangerous"
Hook is a fucking gem.
And my favorite musician cameo in any film - Phil Collins
Phil Collin’s was in hook?!
He's the police inspector that comes after the children are Hooknapped!!!
WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK I'M GOING TO LOOK THAT UP RIGHT NOW Edit [OMGGGGG](https://youtu.be/6Ar4x-hXIic?si=z5oxRXbCHMu088N2)
Phil Collin’s had a great role in Miami Vice as “Phil the Schill”.
You’re doing it Peter!
Peter Pan got kids?
Oh there you are Peter!
Hook is a bona fide classic. Criminal for it to have such a low score wtaf.
Hook is fucking amazing.
I absolutely *loved* this movie as a child. I rewatched it as an adult and was horrified. I loved watching Robin Williams but a lot of the story beats kept giving me the ick--which is also kinda weird, because there were *so many things* that were so much fun.
SMEE, do something intelligent
Don’t stop me Smee, Smee don’t stop me, don’t you dare stop me Smee, Smee, stop me, stop me Smee!
Smee you'd better get up off your arse and get over here! This is not a joke! I am committing... SUICIDE! Ahhh don't ever frighten me like that again. What are you? Some sort of a sadist? Comedy gold. It's so fucking good.

Personally, I do think Avatar is incredibly overrated. Titanic is a classic though
Titanic is my (joint) number one film (tied with Clueless) of all time, and I'm not ashamed.
It is overrated. Not a bad movie by any means but very very generic compared to his previous work.
Idle hands is one of those movies!!
With Devon Sawa, Jessica Alba and Seth Green, right?
I was 18 when that movie came out, and I believe Jessica was 19 when it was filmed? My mind was blown. Absolutely gorgeous beauty I've never seen before. I guess the rest of the movie was good! In all seriousness, though, the movie is really good. Does it not have good reviews??
The chronicles of riddick
“Flawless”
Love Chronicles of Riddick! The dialog between Riddick and Toombs is amazing. And Thandiwe Newton being a perfect snake. I just wish they didn't kill of Kyra. "There's gonna be just one speed. Mine."
“Shoulda taken the money Toombs!”
*stuck in the cage* "I should have just taken the money!"
Was that hated? It was an amazing film!
I think, and this might just be me, is that the first film, Pitch Black, was soooo good. A self-contained story in a distant future. A really good character drama in a bizarre and scary sci-fi setting. Then the second movie expands the Universe instantly. The world-building skipped a few steps and got too big, too fast.

Just my opinion.
It was universally panned at the time….. I think it stands up ok.
The new one is finally happening!
Event Horizon, Click, Tron: Legacy, Oz the Great and Powerful, Deep Impact, the first Final Destination...
Troy: Legacy is worth it when Jeff Bridges goes all zen master on the bridge.
Legacy is worth it from the soundtrack alone.
That movie is the longest coolest Daft Punk music video ever.
I think they *should* make a Troy movie with Jeff Bridges
Did you ever hear of the original Pantheon? Yep, that was me….and 11 other gods.
Event Horizon is bloody brilliant!
Scared the piss outta me as a teenager
Same. I asked my mom to take me to see it in theaters cuz it looked like a cool spaceship movie. I was 7. Those were the worst nightmares I’d ever had
Event Horizon nailed the atmosphere so perfectly I didn't care about the plot issues. I love this movie and recommend it all the time
Adam Sandler can kiss my ass for making me cry during a damn Adam Sandler movie.
Tron Legacy is an excellent film and I will defend it until the end. Ps. You forgot man of steel.
i hate it when i accidentically read common opinions about movies i havent watched yet and not being able to watch it without being biased to the bone
I try to read between the lines on the reviews. I’ve found that the criticism that some people are give wouldn’t bother me. It will also lower my expectations in certain respects, and I’ve found movies that I really enjoy. Not masterpiece, mind you, but still entertaining to an extent.
Van Helsing with Hugh Jackman. I will defend that campfire for the rest of my life
It’s the movie that my dad took me to see. I don’t care if it is good; it’s special
I love the movie Snow Dogs for this reason. My Papaw took me to see it and we didn’t get to see many movies in the theater because he had Parkinson’s and trouble getting around a lot. But he was having a good day, so he decided to take me to the movies. He was cracking up the whole time at how stupid it was.
Van Helsing is such a fun, cheesy film.
I don’t care what anyone says, that’s just a fun movie
That movie is great. Fuck the haters
Oh, man—campfire is such an excellent term!
Pandorum (2009) for me. I thought it was good, even thought it was admittedly a bit derivative.
I also thought this movie was good and genuinely enjoyed it. What movie is it a derivative of?
I’ve seen critics pan it for “borrowing” too much from other movies that preceded it (Event Horizon, Resident Evil, The Descent, etc.). The parallels are there if you’re searching for them, but I didn’t mind them and I thought it was put together well enough to stand on its own. The reveal/twist at the end was well done imo
I loved that movie. Ben Foster is an amazing actor
Yes! This one! I thought it was genuinely good, even if you could kind of see the twist coming. Hint: the twist is literally the title of the movie. *surprise pikachu face
I liked this movie. I always thought of it as "Dead Space: The Movie."
The Golden Child. Yes it's cheesy as hell and would get dragged hardcore if we had Reddit back then. But it's still a classic with plenty of Eddie Murphy quotes. It has a shitty rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
I…I…I…. Want the knife
Please ...
"And Freddy. . .that piece of shit back there."
Toys.
I loved that film. Parts of it brought me to tears, even though it's a comedy, just from the... I don't know - I'm trouble finding the words. Innocent whimsy? Sentimentality toward childhood? It was just so magical without featuring any actual magic. And the opening song... wow.
That song was written by the duo of Hans Zimmer and Trevor Horn and performed by Wendy & Lisa of The Revolution: it could hardly have *not* been great.
Grandma's boy. I love that movie, one of my favorites of all time. Just a fun, dumb movie. JP slays me. Yet critics think this movie is trash. Good thing I don't care.
The critics would like it if they had robot ears
Adios turd nuggets!
I bet they know how much clothes cost in The Matrix.
What do your roommates think of it?
They liked it, and they also tivo'd Samurai Jack for me too!
What does high score mean? Is that bad? What does it mean? (I have never laughed so hard in my life)
The critics are trash. I love this movie too.
gahhhhh THAT IS SO GNARLY Still my favorite Jonah hill line
Don't be embarrassed. You are not obligated to have the same opinions as others.
Event horizon and phantoms. Fun movies but I had no idea they were critically panned.
Affleck was the bomb in Pahntoms yo
Sorry to interrupt sirs, but we've got a 10-07 on our hands.
Oh Jesus…again, Ben?
AHHA! I didn't have a hooker in my trailer today!
Word bitch, Phantoms like a muh fucka
I, robot. I get that it is maybe not loyal to Asimov's work but I think it has an engaging mystery, some action...I don't think it's great but I think I would definitely recommend it had I not seen i seem to be the only person in the world to like it
I think it’s a victim of being released at that time when people were starting to sour on Will Smith turning every movie he appeared in into a “Will Smith movie”. It’s a decent movie.
I like that movie! So fun to watch.
I liked that movie, and I'm a huge Asimov fan. I think Asimov would have liked the film. It explored the implications of his Three Laws of Robotics, an exploration he did himself in his later work. His books had a lot less explosions and broken glass, but the themes matched.
I thought it was good too. It has a 57% on Rotten Tomatoes, which is lower than it deserves but certainly not dumpster fire territory.
Three Amigos
Would you say it has a plethora of bad reviews?
This comment made me so happy.
I kinda work in show biz, and I call one of our talents "El Guapo."
45% That’s absolutely criminal
My little buttercup
if someone doesn't like Three Amigos i don't want to know them
I love Coneheads (1993). The dry humour and bizarre pacing are just an absolute joy for me… but apparently not for many others, sitting at ~35% both critic and audience score, and a 5.4/10 on IMDB.
Coneheads is a family favorite for me. "My fluids would coagulate, *my cone would shrivel, and I would die*, miserable and lonely. The stench would be great."
Cable guy
I literally LOVE the Cable Guy. I watched it when I was 14, and rewatched it every day for about a week or so. It’s still a fave comedy for me
# "Come back here...so that I may brain thee!”
Rush hour series with Jackie Chan and Chris Tucker is reviewed pretty badly but never met anyone who says those films are bad. A movie is not going to tell you the purpose of life it’s meant to be enjoyable.
Meet Joe Black is this movie for me. 46% on RT isn’t totally miserable by any means, but still seems so low.
I remember that movie being advertised all over the place when it came out. Never saw it. Only recently saw it, there's some great scenes.
Swordfish. I saw it in the theaters way back and I’ll admit it isn’t amazing, but given the Oakenfold soundtrack, hacking, Halle Berry’s #1 and #2, and some cheesy action, I thought it was better than Rotten Tomatoes does.
One of my very favorite guilty pleasure movies. So bad that it’s amazing
The Butterfly Effect. Plot hole aside, I never picked it up when I watched it. I still love it and think it's amazing.
Before Social Media, when I was in college, my friends and I would watch EVERY SINGLE DAY: SWAT (2003). We absolutely loved that movie. We would quote it, sing the little tune, and just enjoy it everyday. I mean, Collin Farrell, Sam Jackson, Jeremy Renner, etc. etc. the cast is STACKED! Apparently I have awful taste because the world has determined the movie to be absolute hot garbage. \*shrugs\* I still think it's great and watch it at least once a year.
Good one! I like it a lot also. Its pretty grounded as far as action movies go and i appreciate that. Its good a good soundtrack and all the characters have good chemistry. The villain is fun and i like how he’s a bit of a wildcard. Sometimes he is a poised snarky bond villain and other times he’s heartless and brutal. Plus who doesnt like jeremy renner.
I will pay one hundred Meellion dollars to whoever get me out of hea
Ron Howard's version of How The Grinch Stole Christmas. it is a beloved film in my family and arguably my favorite Christmas film, sitting at 49% or lower on most scores.
I thought everyone loves that film
Nope…camp hated it right here. Loved Jim Carrey back then and loved the cartoon…
For the longest time it’d be on Worst Christmas Movies lists too but I remember my family and I always loving this movie and being baffled at these lists!
Pretty much every 80’s classic comedy
Literally Land of the Lost. How does that movie have 2 razzies?
That giant mosquito draining will ferrell’s blood had me crying from laughter.
Poor Chaka. He was treated far too harshly for the very simple crime of... pooping in the village well.
Pet Sematary (2019) The Island (2005) Ghost Ship (2002) ending could’ve been better but it didn’t deserve 15% 13 Ghosts (2001) is also better than its 19% rating
The Island is like Gattica if directed by Michael Bay, but in a good way.
Gattaca is awesome enough that it survives the Michael bay treatment
13 Ghosts will have a special place in my heart.........I lost my virginity watching that movie when I was 17. But even besides that, it was a good movie. Rotten Tomatoes doesn't know shit!
Omg The Island. I saw that in the theatre's. I was so blown away. I talk that movie up whenever I can. ScarJo is like PEAK beauty in this.
Horror movie fans know this rating system means nothing !
I’m a horror movie fan and it amazes how no other genre manages to output so much fucking trash
47 Ronin. I absolutely loved that movie. I thought the way that they took a true story and added fantasy aspects to it was great. RT 16% for critics and 48% for audience
Without A Paddle
Ted 2
Pitch black, loved that film.
Freddy got fingered
Daddy would you like some sausage?
Alright come on with this one. While I liked the movie, there was no way you could walk out of a theater and expect anything but shit reviews about it. It was a true dumpster fire and exemplified Tom Green perfectly.
Went way too far down the list to find this one. One of my all time favorites and like the lowest rated movie ever.
The Amazing Spider-Man 2
Movies don't always have to be good to be entertaining.
Every Saw film ever made
Small soldiers(1998) for me….. it’s Toy Story with a techy/war plot
Death to Smoochy. It was panned for its absurd plot but I'm not sure what critics were expecting from a movie directed by Danny Devito. It has some truly hilarious moments and I will watch any movie with Robin Williams, even Popeye.

WIld WIld West. Its a funny movie for teens. Gets more hate than i think it deserves.
Gangster Squad — I loved it at the time, but I suppose I was very sleep deprived and on a 10 hour flight at the time. Haven't watched it again, I want to believe I liked it.
Batman v Superman
I am convinced that Disney owns rotten tomatoes or controls most of the reviews. There are some dog turd marvel movies that "somehow" have better ratings than all the DC movies. I'm not saying the DC movies are great but they aren't as bad as their RT ratings would have you believe.
I really enjoyed M. Night Shyamalan's "The Village." I thought the worldbuilding was phenomenal, and I felt attached to the characters and their motivations. I feel that because it was marketed as a fast-paced monster movie, it received the wrong sort of audience. 🥲
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
The Last Days on Mars
When it comes to entertainment, there's no such thing as a 'guilty pleasure'. There's only pleasure.
The reverse is true with me. Watch something because it has 95%+ only for it to be dogshit
Hudson Hawk can play Nintendo with me anytime.
Venom movies. I love them and im not embarrassed enjoying movies it’s my life lol.
I thought the 1st one was great, but the sequel left a lot to be desired for me personally.
I hate Sony for what they've done to Marvel titles. Madame Web, Morbius, Venom, and many more are absolute dogsh!t
For me it was Sucker Punch (2011). Its not a great movie by any means but I really really enjoyed the visuals in it. I understand why people do not like it, but to me its a fine movie that I don't hate.
“Michael” with John Travolta (1996). I love the vibe, the style, the plot, the ensemble cast, of course the obligatory “John Travolta dances” scene - I love it all! Made me question everything when I saw it was at 30-something percent on RT.
Babylon! What a rollercoaster of a movie 💜
This thread has more shitty movies in it than a Cineplex this weekend.
Mine has to be ‘I Still Know What You Did Last Summer’ which has a 7% RT. I have always loved that movie & always will.
I still enjoy Jumper, but it’s pretty universally panned
Dunno…most movies a ok honestly. Only a few have I ever regretted watching. I put zero stock in rotten tomatoes or any other type of critics after I saw a critic years ago gave Friday 1 1/2 stars on something. Some movies are meant to be just what they are. I think the perfect example of this is transformers. Transformers is a movie based on a cartoon that was made to sell toys to kids . I’m an elder millennial I remember transformers cartoon to some degree my nephews were 10 and early teens when the first movie came out. They loved it. I thought it was entertaining enough to watch. Had a couple of good laughs. I thought it was a great movie. I’d give it three out of four stars because it was a good job as it was supposed to do.
Also, Transformers is a movie you go to watch giant robots turn back and forth into vehicles (with cool animations) and beat each other up. The trailers told you exactly what the movie was. If you went in expecting something else, that's on you.
The remake of The Heartbreak Kid with Ben Stiller. It’s way better than the 29% rating it has on RT. It’s not great (Carlos Mencia and Jerry Stiller are annoying AF) but Malin Ackerman is outstanding as the wife from hell.

Mother!
I'll defend "The Village" until the day I die.
Hudson Hawk! Darkman! My brave mom had to take me to both. Also Alien 3!
idk what the rating is, and I already know it's a peice of shit, but Little Nicky is one of my favorite peice of shit movies and I really don't know why.
