Movies that you generally hated but others believe they are great

worst movie ever made? hardly. It's overrated by most of my freinds, but still very funny. Lots of great comedic actors brought together for some great improv. fueled laughs. Is there any specific reason why you didn't like it?

American Pie......people loved, I hated.
Meet The Parents.....people loved, I hated.

I have to say Sideways. I guess I'm about to hear back on this big time, but almost nothing in the movie worked for me. laughed all of three times, I strongly disliked all but Virginia Madse's character. I still can't understand what two people with as little in common as Miles and Jack are doing talking to each other, none the less best friends. Maybe the reson I don't get it is because I'm a young black guy with no interest in wine. Maybe I'm the last remaining soul not to have drunk the Kool Aid in this groupthinkathon that is Sideways. Whatever the reason I didn't like it and I don't understand the prasie for this film.

I didn't hate Fight Club...but I'll never understand the masses of whorshipers it generates.

IMO Meet the Parents was good, but overrated. I thought Meet the Fockers was better.

Did you read the book?

You have to read the book.

Please read the book!

Chuck P. is a horrible author. He even admitted that the book was nothing compared to the movie. Sorry to bust your funky-fresh-bubble.... wait, no I'm not.

I may get a lot of flack for this;
I hate the movie SHREK , I don't know why others liked it, but I hate that movie with a passion.

Sorry, if anyone liked it.

Not a fan of Kill Bill vol 2, thought the first was very good.

Spiderman 2

cold mountain

I really didnt like Oldboy.

I don't hate The Lord of the Rings trilogy I just think it's very overrated. I personally don't class them as some of the best films ever. I feel the same with The Deer Hunter.

Someday this war's gonna end..."

Titanic ! Colossal flop for me, but my friends enjoyed that movie. Well, standing for a good 3 hours in the cinema also did not help...

I didn't enjoy Titanic either. I thought it was really boring. Even Kate Winslet's little nude scene, couldn't save it.
