Movies that you generally hated but others believe they are great

dont yell at me, but I have to say it.
Pulp Fiction.
I fall asleep at the same place in the movie every time I try to watch it.
That is not an exaggeration.

Meet the Parents - I just really didn't laugh much or find anything original in it.
Y Tu Mama Tambien - It wasn't bad, just waaayy overhyped.
Adaptation - Again, not bad, but just not great. I thought that Cage was completely over the top. Sure, he's good at over the top, but this one bored me.

One film that was made such an overhype was any stupid films by Queen Latifah (she made a film and I don't even remember it but it was sooo anoying!) or stupid movies such as Honey, why even bother. It's not even reflective of anyone's opionion or culture ; their movies that are such a waste. Here is the case as well as Gigli, why even make that film ?? why make films where singers turn actors can't act; It doesn't even make sense, and then they put out the trailer that seem as if it's going to be anything worthwhile.
Waste of anything good, that's what I hate. Even the Titanic, they made such a fuss over a movie that could of been done it thirty minutes or less. Waste ; waste and more waste.

For me, Fargo stands out. I can't take watching the thing. Is Buscemi occasionally funny in Fargo? Yeah, but that's about the only positive thing I can say about it.

I think the Matrix was a waste of time, money and my energy to have to sit throuh the first one 5 or 6 times. I had to Critically deconstruct it for school and figure out all thr f*** hidden meanings and symbolism and relevence to todays society. Doing that to any film is a horrible thing for a movie buff, but the matrix just boggled my mind.
Personally I only liked Moulin Rouge because Ewan McGregor sings, thats it, hate Nicole Kidman and the way they ruined so many good songs, esp Smells Like Teen Spirit and Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend - Kidman should be banned from singing.

An example of what I mean is: A small time thief from Belfast, Gerry Conlon, is falsely implicated in the IRA bombing of a pub that kills several people while he is in London.
However does it mention that Mr Conlon was a thief in the movie and police had suspected this and he was known to have been associated with the ira at the time.
Now what did happen was a miscarriage of justice, however I believe that a story should have its whole story told and not just the parts that give the film gloss. I would suggest reading gerry conlons own book.

Dude, we can all have our opinions, but I believe that it shouldn't be forced upon us to do that to a film unless we want to. I would be the first to jump at a chance to do it to many of my fav films, but like I said, The Matrix was too deep for me. It's just a personal view, somethings are too good to tamper with, others are worthy of destroying.
Word up hommies. I hated From Justin To Kelly but everyone else seemed to love it. Sedai, I'm talking mainly to you. Don't hide it.
