[QUOTE=BmB;22029051]If you want to watch things blow up go to a pyrotechnics show or surf on youtube. Films need a bit more things than explosions to be good.[/QUOTE]
not true if you're talking about an action movie. :v:
transformers 2. i loved it but alot of people hated it.
[QUOTE=The_J_Hat;21950741]The Mist[/QUOTE]
I thought is was a pretty good movie, but the ending! i mean come on!
[sp]Hurp Derp, were out of gas, I'm gonna kill everyone including my own son. *bang* *bang* Oh wait! that sound was the army?![/sp]
The Thing
Watchmen
Star Wars (except the Clone Wars) - Note, this includes the new movies.
Predator
Gangs of New York (sorta thrashed, 60% is bad on my list)
Really though, me and the good critics generally agree on everything, so my list is very short.
The Cable Guy.

it's better and more dramatic than the ending to the original Short Story.
[sp]it basically ends with them driving off into the Mist, with their ultimate fate left ambiguous.[/sp]
The only one I can think of off the top of my head is Independence Day. Actually, pretty much any cheesy invasion/disaster/explosion fest.

Joe Dirt.
[QUOTE=Run&Gun12;21989067]Black Sheep.[/QUOTE]
For the life of me I cannot take that film seriously.
On the subject of panned films though, Evolution.
Rufiooo Rufiooo Ru-fi-oooooooooh
Hook :)
Johnny mnemonic sadly.
Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation.
Everyone says it was silly but the last half of it goes all out insane and I just love Matthew Maconahay's character.

That is by far one of my favourite movies. I still don't know why they gave it such a bad review.

I loved this movie, but everybody else loved it. I think I was the only person who liked it.
Wild wild West
Also, I thought The Mist was a great movie too, the ending was very well done.
The Day After Tomorrow, I loved that movie.

The Terminal.

Watchmen got meh reviews and I loved it.
Same goes for Hoodwinked
Movies that got bad reviews that I love are Sinbad (Dreamworks animated movie), Sahara and Godzilla
Watchmen
Godzilla
The Terminal
The Watchmen was a pretty badass movie.
Battlefield Earth. Then again, I view it as a comedy.

Whelp, that's one for me then. Picked it up for 10 euros and I fucking love it.
epic movie
I liked Three and Out.
I think the problem with it was its marketing. Posters made it out to be as a straight comedy while it was basically a black comedy/drama.
The ending was amazingly sad.

I mean, just fucking look at that. The film's about a train driver who runs over accidentally runs over two people and then gets told that if he runs over a third in the same month, they pay him off for life. So he looks for a third guy wanting to commit suicide.
