disclaimer:
i'm not the sharpest when it comes to reading threads. i think we may have one similar, but i can't find it.

anyway, watching "night school" for the third time, i can't understand the bad reviews. one of the movies closest to the 80s awesomeness of finding yourself, and no, not just your genitals.

what have you watched that you ask yourself the same question? fork people and their reviews.

I think Iron Man 3 is a good movie but I hated that they ruined the Mandarin. They built him up to be the best villain the MCU had seen and it turns out he's a comedy act. Now I thought Trevor was cool and funny but I'd rather he was the real Mandarin. But even with Trevor I still liked it.

i'd have to agree. good call.

Cameron Diaz played good crazy.

damn. good call. i totally forgot about her.

also, in your defense, it really is a good movie...if you actually pay attention.

i assume you mean other than The Last Jedi - the 3rd or 4th best movie in the series, right?

i actually like The Cell - lots of scene chewing but it works in this movie

i actually like The Cell

The Cell was great and I've never understood why people don't like it.

Too dark? The visuals were eye popping.

The Promise. It was a very moving film in many ways, plus it's based on a true story. Incredible movie in my book.

Ok I'm probably not going to get a lot of support for this, but I really liked the Wachowski's Speed Racer. Sure it was corny and some of the acting was a little stiff, but to me it really captured the spirit of the cartoon. It was imaginative, fast, and the colors really popped on the screen.
And the transitions were just so creative and kinetic. Just watch this fight scene:



No, it's not a masterpiece but it's really good for what they were trying to do.

I never pay attention to reviews, so I can really tell... I guess about the only one I can think up is Kingdom of Heaven, which had really bad reviews when it was released because they butchered it for the theatrical release, but the Director's Cut is awesome.

So I was actually having a Rotten Tomatoes conversation with my friend earlier, so I had looked some up earlier.
Couple’s Retreat
Bad Boys 2 - really most popcorn movies in general
Boondock Saints
Space Jam

Jake Gyllenhaal's film Southpaw. The reviews weren't terrible but that film deserved much better!

I absolutely hated this movie. Lol. Didn't need a single critic to tell me it was awful. Lol.

I actually remember a guy calling into a talk show where Cruise was a guest and asked him what the heck was wrong with him for doing this movie. Being a Ton Cruise fan, I thought it was a rather fair question. Lolol
