Poorly Rated Movies That You Love

[JediMB]

Super mario Bros the movie. Yeah thats right i said it

Add one more to that.

Because who can resist the Mushroom Kingdom taking the form of a fungus-infested, dystopian, post-apocalyptic city populated by dinosaur people?

 

[Lt._nefarious]

The Resident Evil moviesbecause of Milla Jvoovichthey were absolutely awesome

 

[xplosive59]

Caligula is so weird and terrible that it is good, also Malcolm McDowell is very good in it.

 

[Wolf In A Bear Suit]

I liked the first Transformers a lot. Second one was ok, third one was dumb and had few too slow motions Megan Fox running scenes for my liking (surprisingly)

 

[SpectacularWebHead]

I liked green lantern (Please don't hit me!)

I thought that ryan reynolds makes a good hal jordan (Even though I was slightly butthurt about no Nathan Fillion) and I thought the cgi wasn't that bad.

 

[Soundwave]

I've also got to mention the amazing Murder Party:

That movie was easily the most entertaining five dollars I'd ever spent.

 

[Mordekaien]

I enjoyed the Prince of Persia film, Its not particularly deep or anything and it does stray pretty far from the games, but I still enjoyed watching it, Gemma Arterton being exceptionally beautiful is a plus too.

This.
I went to see it, and was pleasantly surprised that they managed to do a movie based on a game that was watchable.

Six String Samurai will now join the list.

I wasn't even aware the movie was well-known enough to get flak from critics.

Six-String Samurai is rated at 60% on rottentomatoes, not too shabby. Love that movie, though. I intend to see The Red Elvis' at some point.

I'mma add Tank Girl to the list. It definitely has it's flaws, but screw it. It had enough of the anarchic comic style it needed. Great casting for the main character, too. Plus Ice-T.

Reign of Fire! [http://www.metacritic.com/movie/reign-of-fire] The thing has 39 (!!!) on Metacritic, what the actual fuck? That movie is downright great for it's portrayal of a dragon-haunted community in post-apocalyptic England. It was one of Christian Bale's best performances and the actual premise of the movie was belieavable, which is incredibly rare for a sci-fi/fantasy set on earth. Top that with fantastic special effects for 2002 (in fact it's still better than many movies from 2012 like Battleshit!) and all of it was done on a very impressively understated budget. I think what's really going on here is that non-USA cinematography conventions are so tough for these in-bred American critics to swallow. That's what!

This. Much. I love Reign of Fire so hard. I'll watch it anytime I see it. It's like Jurassic Park to me. Drop everything and spend the day watching it, fuck the rest of the world. Matthew McCon...McCou... ... ... VanZandt is crap, but the rest is great. Always makes me imagine the rest of the world. Especially the "get 'em at sunset in Kansas" story.

I like-

Little Nicky

Little Nicky, unlike Popeye's Chicken, is fuckin' awesome.

---

Punisher War Zone is in my top 3 favorite Superhero movies of all time (even though I guess Castle isn't much of a superhero considering his powers are basically 'Guns' and 'Intense Gun/Military Training')

I love Final Fantasy 7: Advent Children.

I like Batman Forever more than Dark Knight and, Dark Knight Rises (though not as much as Batman 89 which is my favorite Batman film)

I also like both Mortal Kombat movies from the 90's.

 

[Bearadox_42]

Repo! The Genetic Opera, which was an awesome musical movie where Anthony Head goes around singing about reclaiming organs...


And I also really enjoyed the Kevin Smith movie Jersey Girl. Anything with Carlin is, almost by default, good in my book.

 

[Legion]

I shall add my name to the list of those who said The Village, The Butterfly Effect and Little Nicky.

I don't really care about the 'flaws', I enjoyed them.

 

[Dr Jones]

The Butterfly Effect

That film is great! Is it lowly rated? That'd surprise me. I always thought it was held in a somewhat high regard, which only made the sequels abysmal quality so much worse.
Dear god, I just checked the critical reception, it was TERRIBLE D;

 

[CoL0sS]

I have a whole bunch of them. Some of them are a guilty pleasure, some of them I like because I knew exactly what to expect, but all of them are considered shitty by Rotten Tomatoes or my film making friends.

Fanboys
Day Watch/Night Watch
Mallrats
Payback
Expendables
From Paris With Love
The 51st State
The Ninth Gate
Angel-A
The Tiger and the Snow

 

[King of Asgaard]

Atlantis: The Lost Empire
In my opinion, the best film Disney has ever made.
To this day, I cannot for the life of me understand why it got panned.
I mean, watch this (minor spoilers) and see for yourselves:

 

[Orbot_Vectorman]

Holly hell 2 pages and no one mentioned Titan A.E.?

Well shy that, I liked the first Bay Transformers film, Green Lantern, Godzilla (American), and I'll get back to you all when I can think of a few more.

 

[w00tage]

Brain Donors in 3B. Three beers and you will think it's the greatest movie ever. Warning - NSFSP (not safe for serious people).

Also, Willow. I still wish they'd rerelease that with some fixed-up CGI.

 

[putowtin]

I like-

EDIT- I just remember-

Daredevil
The Last Action Hero
Speed Racer

The Last Action Hero... classic!

My pick though has to be Hudson Hawk!

 

[Drake666]

Hudson Hawk is an amazing funny film!
And there's not so many people who likes it...

 

[RedDeadFred]

Prometheus.

I feel like i'm one of maybe a handful of people in the world that actually thought it was a good movie.

Granted there were a couple of scenes that were just plain silly but i'm not going to condemn the entire film based on those.

It's not gonna be in my top movies list but I did actually enjoy it. The movie had a very unique take on the alien genre (not the Alien movies, just alien movies in general). In reality, if we encountered an alien species that was incredibly advanced, how could be possibly understand their technology or motivations. The movie doesn't really answer these questions concretely but instead leaves you to speculate. This pissed a lot of people off (myself included at first) because they felt like they had just been left in the dark throughout the entire movie but I think that was kind of the point.
