Prometheus. I don't care how stupid the plot is, and how many holes it has. Its aesthetics are (for the most part) excellent in a way that tickles my brain. I'm pretty sure I wouldn't like it as much the second time though (especially since I saw it in a theater)

Observe And Report starring Seth Rogan.

It's a movie about a mall security guard and it often gets confused for the awful Paul Blart movies by people, which is why I think it gets dismissed. But it's genuinely darkly funny. It leans into the hero complex of the main character and it gets weird and off putting in the best kinds of ways. If you like Death To Smoochie, you will probably like it.

Alien Romulus. Me and my friends fucking loved that movie and were blown away so we were surprised to see how many people hated it

Deathstalker 1 & 2, although the second is far superior.

It's completely tone deaf by any standards, let alone modern ones. Watch as a gang rape is interrupted and turned into what can only be described as a "heroic sexual assault".

The second swaps out the main actor for a much funnier one, and has probably the catchiest out-of-place theme tune of any movie.

You know you're watching a terrible movie, but they breeze along and you can't help but be entertained by it.

I like comedies, dumb action movies and horror. So it's almost everything, just like the person in the meme. lol

Basically any movie-adaptation of a book. I know I'm in the minority on this, but if I wanted the story of the book, I'd be reading the book, not watching a movie that's often merely based on it. A new spin on an existing tale is the best of both worlds imo.

My case was with The Witcher's Polish TV show. I was entertained and aware that, being a TV show from 2002, budget would've been slim, so I didn't mind the "low quality" effects. I also watched with subs, so I couldn't tell if some of vocal acting was good, bad or terrible

I filtered in IMDb movies where I have voted 7+ while user rating is up to 6 and these jumped out seemingly panned by both critics and users.

  1. Gods of Egypt. Visually great, standard action story, don't get the dislike at all.
  2. Tremors 4: The Legend Begins. I have watched most Tremors movies, have given them 6+. The one I disliked most was Tremors: Shrieker Island which I have rated 3.
  3. Iron Sky. Do not remember a single thing, but it looks fun. Probably will rematch soon.
