I also admire THE GODFATHER III and believe that people don't give it enough credit.

I thought A.I. was so much better than MINORITY REPORT or WAR OF THE WORLDS, but everyone else disagrees.

Actually, I really enjoyed that movie too. Lots of good action set pieces in there.

I have so many I wouldn't know where to start, but most I find good because they are so bad so they likely don't count. However, I have no excuse for liking "Mary Reilly" so much. It just really, really works for me.

Nice!


Since when is "House of 1,000 Corpses" universally hated? I loved it myself and from what I've gathered most horror aficionados may find the occasional flaw(s) but don't outright hate it.

I must note that we are keeping track of these and none of you are allowed to open up threads on how much you dislike The Godfather after watching it for the first time

As far as universally hated, I guess mine would be:

The Island
Romy & Michelle's High School Reunion (don't know how many hate this but it is a fav of mine)
Both Brady movies
Showgirls (my girlfriend's vote)
Prayer of the Rollerboys
AntiTrust
3000 Miles To Graceland
Walking Tall (The Rock)
Paparazzi

I just remembered some reviled but highly entertaining films...

Fair Game with Cindy Crawford and one of the Baldwin brothers. Hilariously campy entertainment from begining to end! All the cliches are there,played as straight as possible and somewhat over the top at the same time. That the film is just a huge hoot that gets alot of bad reviews..since people are too stuck up

Who's That Girl?, yes the infamous Madonna comedy from the late 80's that bombed theatrically and seems to have zero star ratings by many critics. I actually found the film amusing and enjoyable..so sue me.


Boat Trip ,great comic farce that gets an unfairly high amount of misunderstood negative reviews.


And is The Brady Bunch Movie and its sequel really hated by many? If so..then count those as well since both films are highly enjoyable!

I have not seen Howard the Duck since I was a kid. I loved it then...but never bothered watching the whole thing since. I doubt I would like it today...but you never know.
