All the freaking time.
Have you ever liked a movie which has received bad reviews?
Annie (2014). But don't expect it to be anything like the previous film or even the comic.
Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer. Also not much like the comic.
Godzilla (1998) You have to ignore all of the previous films, though, and it came too late, following "Jurassic Park."
The Phantom (1996) It also came too late. It looks like an Indiana Jones film and many don't realize old movie serials like the original "Phantom" inspired Indiana Jones.
Oh Heavenly Dog (1980) Its problem is it looks like a kids' film but it's really more a light adult film.
The Cobbler (2015) Really more of a drama though it stars Adam Sandler.
Clue (1986)
About Time (2013)
A lot of comedies are not well liked by critics. But I have to say most critics today are more willing to judge films for their own aspirations than in the old days, when critics often skewered anything that wasn't Serious Drama.

Sure. Some (of many) that come to mind are: Clue, Johnny Dangerously, The Last Action Hero, Two of a Kind, Spaceballs, Robin Hood: Men in Tights, Blue Hawaii and most of the old Star Trek movies. Many critics of their day would begin a review with "I don't like Star Trek films so..."

Harlem Nights was really funny.
One of my all-time favorites is The Holiday and I've never seen it in the top 10 of a single pseudo intellectual.

I remember really enjoying The Butterfly Effect when I first watched it. But, that was more than 5-6 years ago, and I've never gotten around to re-watching it.
