NFT: Movies that critics and fans liked but you don't

montanagiant : 7/14/2019 1:03 pm
I have two of them:

Natural Born Killers - The only movie I ever walked out on halfway over. The whole scene in the teepee was the final straw.

Repoman - I mean WTF? It 98% from Rotten Tomatoes and 79% from fans. It's the dumbest hodgepodge of a movie mess I have ever seen

found Get Out to be boring.

Saw Late Night with the wife. I can't believe reviewers calling it hilarious. It was a total waste of 2 hours.

Also walked out of Lost in Translation.

The Last Jedi....it sucked major asshole.



I’m not sure if any of the recent Star Wars movies would count as movie critics and fans liked, would they? Except for Rogue One, which was quality IMO.

I actually liked Solo better that the critics and most fans did.


the critics went nuts for TLJ. IMO that movie was horrible...I will never watch it again.

Rogue One is the best of the new ones and yes I even enjoyed Solo.

Saving Private Ryan


Yes. After the breathtaking invasion scenes, the rest of the movie is a by-the-numbers WWII movie. The invasion is still amazing though.

The critics absolutely adored that steaming turd.
People were..

blowing Spacey for his performance in that movie.

In retrospect, it wasn't acting - it was a mirror image of his life!!
A Star is Born is overrated. Overrated piece of crap

This is true.

And add another war movie that not only won an Academy but got a lot of accolades...The Hurt Locker sucked. I absolutely hated that movie.
Man, there is a bunch

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy
No Country for Old Men
21 Grams

Most super-hero movies, especially in recent years.

The movie made like a half a billion dollars in the box office, I am sure there were a few critics out there who praised that steaming pile of dog shit.
It's a Michael Bay movie

Critics hate Michael Bay

Three hours of hell. Only thing good was DeCaprio dying. Ship sank in like 10 minutes real time yet 90 minutes later still sinking. I guess I have to give Cameron credit. He made me feel what it was like to suffer a slow death

And for me Avatar was Dances w Wolves in space. And even Dances was a bit of a plot rip-off of A Man Called Horse. Soldier goes native Got it.




Actually, Titanic took @ 2 1/2 hours to sink.

Matty's not a big fan of facts.
The remake of The Beguiled....  
BillKo : 7/15/2019 3:32 pm : link
....was a movie I was looking forward to watching because the original was so good. And the critics loved it.

Simply awful.

w/ The Rock.



I don’t know anyone who liked this


I liked it, but it was the winter on a Saturday or Sunday morning, and i was missing golf. In the first 3 minutes i decided to view it as a comedy. If you combine all those things its actually a pretty good movie.
I didnt like Moonlight  
cjac : 7/15/2019 4:33 pm : link
it won best picture

i was really really bored the whole time

Fucking awful.

And I’m not sure Old School fits the criteria, but I never got the appeal of it wing funny. Just a knock off from animal house.



Agree about Old School. Most of the Will Ferrell era of comedies were overrated dreck.


He plays the same character over an over. Ok when you are doing a 5 minute skit. 5 movies later? Same w Owen Wilson. Just boring after a while
