Movies that everyone else loves but you hate. Are there any?
for me, it's Sideways. what an incredible yawn-fest. ugh. seeing a commercial for it's airing on FX sometime soon made me think of it. what are some of yours? | |

i thought Babel really sucked too. it thought it had a meaning, a lesson, a moral, some statement about the human condition. but as it turns out, it didn't. even though it still tried to convince the audience that it did. gawd. | |

Pulp Fiction - it's been a long time since I saw that last so I'd need to give it a whirl; but I like it, from what I remember.
Forrest Gump...     I think Tom Hanks is a rubbish actor. 
I don't think I've ever told you this - only because it's such an obscure thing and I seem to agree with everything you say   - but I do have a massive aversion to Meg Ryan and Andie MacDowell as well.  Anything with those two in, I don't want to see it.

They might as well have called that 'Love Story On A Sinking Ship'. The fact that it was on the Titanic had very little to do with it.
Great effects, though.  | |

no thought put into this one ! "Armageddon" - hated it ! hated it so bad !!!!  it is the worst !!!
not 10 min into it ... i predicted that bruce willis would die in the end ... 
one reviewer i read on amazon : What were the makers of this movie thinking? The science in this movie is SOOOOO bad and SOOOOO stupid that it boggles the mind. Space shuttles that move like Navy jet fighters in the vacuum of space. An astroid the size of Texas has gravity equal to Earth's...sometimes...but then...sometimes not. A space shuttle crash lands on the astroid, impacting at thousands of miles per hour...and the heroes SURVIVE IT! The heroes deem it necessary to bring a Gatling gun with them to the surface of the astroid for no better reason than to provide Steve Buscemi with a really dumb "comedy" scene toward the end (what would you need a machine gun for anyway?). NASA manages to mount the entire, multinational Earth-rescue operation from set-up to launch, in 9 DAYS (if an astroid is on a collision course toward Earth, 9 MONTHS isn't going to be enough time!). A Russian space-station (obviously meant to be MIR) has it's own gravity and is so spacious it makes my house look like a rabbit-warren. I could go on, but why? Suffice to say that this is one idiotic movie. I usually like brainless action films but this one takes the cake. It's nicely photographed and the actors do what they can but, in the end, there's very little that would have helped this one except maybe throwing away the script and starting over. | |

Titanic sucked sweaty donkey balls. We don’t mourn artists because we knew them. We mourn them because they helped us know ourselves. | |

Garden State!
Ugh, that movie blew! The airport scenes make me want to die. America's political system used to be about the "pursuit of happiness." Now more and more of us want to stop chasing it and have it delivered.

There must be something in the water in the town where you live. I honestly don't know anyone that thinks that movie was great. | |

Didn't care much for any of the Lord of the Rings movies.
Hated The Wiz - it was garbage | |

All of The Matrix movies. Overblown Phillip K. Dick/William Gibson existentialism disguised as philosophy. Not a single moment of anything truly profound in these movies. Why people gush over them is beyond me.
Return of the King. Worst entry in the Rings trilogy. Titanic Big Fish. Found this movie to be flat-out offensive. Gladiator. Shakespeare in Love | |

What didn't you like about Gladiator? America's political system used to be about the "pursuit of happiness." Now more and more of us want to stop chasing it and have it delivered.
