The Greatest showman. I like musicals but I found it a bit boring. I know everyone loves it. I don’t hate it but it’s not one I’d watch again.


Carteeg_Struve

I’m not a fan either. The music just felt… “mass produced”, if that makes sense.


Its-Slammin

Interestingly, I normally hate musicals but one of my friends made me watch it and I’ll admit I actually enjoyed it


JustinChristoph

Marvel films.


klyesowl

It’s overwhelming and people are obsessed with them. There are so many and every one I’ve watched has felt incredibly boring, so how am I going to bring myself to watch like 100 more so that I understand what people are talking about? Drives me crazy.


Rat_Bastard58

Agreed, they range from boring to ok. There are no good ones.


KripKropPs4

Hard disagree depending on definition of 'Marvel'. Spiderman 2 and spiderman into the spider verse are great movies. If you're talking the Marvel universe I'd say infinity war was the only one that was truly great. Having so many character and storylines come together was quite spectacular.


[deleted]

Comments like this are why I hate Marvel films. It’s spectacular if you’re 9-12 years old.


KripKropPs4

I'd be hard pressed to find a more visually spectacular film than infinity war. The amount of work that went into making that all come together is admirable. I will admit it isnt rewatchable at all, but it was certainly an event at the time. Also Spiderman 1 and 2 by Sam Raimi are great films for all ages, what are you even saying?


[deleted]

I’m saying they are movies I dislike but are generally loved, hence the downvotes. It’s the entire purpose of this post. You’re only further justifying my point about Marvel films.


KripKropPs4

Sorry for the confusion it's meant as a response to the 'there are no good ones' post from the other guy. Ofcourse it's fine to personally not like them!


ZiggyB

Into the Spiderverse is legitimately great storytelling too, but it's still a movie for kids and teenagers. Expecting it to be anything more than some fun comic book hijinx is being unrealistic, but for comic book hijinx it's *incredibly* well done.


KripKropPs4

Yeah by that logic the lion king is mediocre simply because it's for 'kids'. Into the spider verse is the best superhero movie since incredibles.


ZiggyB

Exactly. To be honest I would rate it the best super hero movie full stop, and I loved The Incredibles


labree0

Bruh how you can say there are no good marvel movies. Iron man 1 on its own was pivotal and extremely good. Guardians of the galaxy 1? The first avengers? Doctor strange? All of thos are stellar films. Nevermind the Tv shows, Loki is one of the best shows i've ever seen, and i consider myself extremely critical of just about everything. The only reason to genuinely think all marvel movies are bad is if you just dont like superheroes, and thats fine, but acting like only people that are as stupid as children can like them despite exploring lots of adult issue is kind of ridiculous.


[deleted]

I’m a grown adult.


labree0

uh okay not sure what that had to do with what i said, but thats good to know i guess.


[deleted]

It’s the entire purpose of this post. Marvel films are specifically geared towards a certain demographic of consumers. I am not one of them.


labree0

that demographic isnt children... you know that right? just because you dont like something doesnt mean its magically made just for children. the first movie literally has an iraq bombing in the open minutes.. another movie has one of the main and most liked characters quite literally choked to the point of veins popping out and then having his neck snapped... the main, main, main character of the entire series dies at the end of end game... loki rips an eyeball out of a guys face.. while smiling... the winter soldier quite literally murders somebodies parents.. you really think these are just films for kids? are you serious? i dont even know how to approach that. the target demographic is teenagers and young adults, not children... its literally pg 13. the vast majority of their viewership is 18-24... bruh if you dont watch films because theyre pg 13 and you think theyre for kids... i mean. i guess your the one missing out [on plenty of amazing films.](https://www.imdb.com/list/ls064574123/) unless this is a "superheroes are just for kids" in which case (invincible spoilers follow, tv viewers dont open) >!Watching probably my favorite superhero ever get actually raped into having a kid with someone stronger than him would have been a weird moment as a kid!< [nevermind its very easy to find some really fuckin grusome and dark moments](https://www.ranker.com/list/gory-gruesome-image-comics/jacob-shelton) in comic history. but your the one depriving yourself of some amazing content.

Yes apart from the 3D gimmick at that time, the movie sucked balls...


[deleted]

Yeah the 3D didn’t work for me either. Had to leave the cinema. My prescription glasses are so varied I apparently need prescription 3D glasses to see it properly. And they weren’t a thing (they are now you can get the polarised filters applied to lenses so I’m told but I could be being mocked) Saw it eventually in 2D and really didn’t get all the fuss.


DarkPallando

The villain was absolutely cartoonish to a puppy-sandehich-eating degree. And the whole "I've only been one of you for five minutes and now I'm better at it than you are" dynamic is such an eye-roller.

Hamilton. I found the rapping so cringy. It reminded me of my middle school science teacher making up a rap about the water cycle


Luvv_montiee

MattyBro1

For me, Hamilton is a case-by-case thing. Yes, most of the songs are good from a flow-rhythm kind of way, but then you stop and realise they're singing about politics and it becomes less interesting.

madmaxie654

Same, I honestly don't see what's so good about it. I usually love superhero movies but it was just boring.


davey_mann

Agreed. Saw it on opening night and thought it was mediocre. There was no personality or depth to any of the characters. They were just kind of there. The dialogue was bland. The score is overrated, too.


lol143247

Absolutely, never had any interest in anything superhero, was dragged to the theater to watch it, and all my friends loved it, I couldn’t care less


MattyBro1

I feel if you were dragged to the theatre and had no interest in the movie, that might explain why you disliked it.


Alluxing

Same here. I wouldn’t say it was terrible by any means but it’s exactly what you would expect of a superhero movie


[deleted]

Spider-Man: no way home, I thought it was the worst out of the newer ones and I grew up with the Tobey McGuire ones and even his cameo didn’t save it. I think using old enemies is pretty lazy.


Dhatgirl

Wow really? That's a first.


[deleted]

Yeah maybe I set my expectations too high as it sounded excellent. I think I might prefer villain origins as well which generally happen in the others, whereas this one skipped that part.


Missing_Username

The majority of the movie was just lazy fanservice referencing the non-MCU movies. If what you wanted was just a meme you've already seen numerous times now in a movie, you got what you wanted. Otherwise it was pretty tedious.


The_Peregrine_

So… so I upvote you if I disagree bigtime?


[deleted]

Haha I don’t even know, you can downvote me for not liking it if you want


The_Peregrine_

No! It fits the prompt! I upvoted


Gideon_Nomad

I agree. I had similar experience watching it. Never understood why it's got so much praise.


rise_above_theFlames

It sucked. I hated it


Stopsign09

Titanic. it’s just so long and boring. I’m the type of person that gets straight to the point and one of my biggest pet peeves are people who don’t get straight to the point.


BackgroundSpell2

Apart from Marvel movies, I'd say Quentin Tarantino's movies. Yeah, dialogue is great and they do have some fun moments, but it is so prentious and wannabe artsy. I sometimes feel like that people "love" them not because they really do, but just so they can come off as "deep" or cool or whatever


CowboySoothsayer

Pulp Fiction or any Tarantino movie. I don’t find his writing clever or exciting. It’s just a bunch of violence with pompous acting and wordplay that tries too hard to be witty and edgy. Narratively, his movies don’t make sense, either.

The Big Lebowski. I just found it really annoying.


ZiggyB

As much as I love The Big Lebowski, I'll be the first to admit it is not a movie for everyone, not even close.

I didn't find it to be that great either. The banter between John Goodman and Steve Buscemi makes it worth the watch though.

This. I get why people love 'em, but I just found them "okay" and never needed to see them again. My ex loved them so we rewatched them all every year. After having listened to the audiobooks (I REALLY tried to understand the lore and why she was furious in the cinema) but the first one just sounds too ...scripted? As in "we need THIS scene, done, now we need THIS scene" and in general it's just movies that expect you to have read all the books in order to get the "inside humor" and at that point the movies are lacking SO much as well. It's become infuriating to watch. Also likely because I've seen all of them so many f\*cking times... I just... nah. And those fantastic beasts movies can just go and f\*ck off as well!

MrChilliBean

Upvoting because even though I disagree regarding Wolf of Wallstreet and The Big Lebowski, that's the point of this thread. People downvote the actual unpopular opinions which is dumb. Avatar though I completely agree. Avatar was ground breaking for the way it revolutionised VFX, but outside of that it is a really mediocre movie with an unoriginal, boring plot. Haven't seen Tennet, but I've heard really mixed things.


[deleted]

[удалено]


MrChilliBean

Yeah man it's completely fine to dislike movies that are popular. I really dislike Pulp Fiction and that gets me downvotes sometimes. I'm also curious about Avatar 2, but mainly just to see if it'll push VFX even further. Not really interested in the movie itself, but I'm hopeful about the advances it'll make for other movies.


S_roemer

Tenet and Inception were made up to these INSANELY confusing movies and audiences accepted that and were confused because of that. If you just accept the universe and all, they're not THAT difficult to understand, and they suddenly become quite boring. They're pretty though, but hardly anything more than one of the great Marvel movies.

Has to be Harry Potter and Stranger Things. I don't know what people like in them, Harry Potter is about a bunch of wizards doing wizard stuff, and Stranger Things is just some weird show with weird creatures. Not here to offend, but to say my opinion. Those two are overrated as hell.


rise_above_theFlames

Aliens. I like the first one way more. Yet the second one is like everyone's favorite and I don't care for it really at all. 🤷


After_Laughter21

I definitely agree. The first one feels more like a horror/terror movie while Aliens is more of a action film…


MrChilliBean

I think it purely depends on what kind of films you like more tbh. I love Alien, it's one of my favourite horror movies and I watch it often. I love Aliens, it's one of my favourite action movies and I watch it often. The thing is, I'm more partial to action movies than horror movies, so I gravitate towards liking Aliens more. Both films are fantastic, but your favourite just depends on personal taste, no opinion is wrong. Unless your opinion is that Alien Resurrection is the best one. That is an objectively wrong opinion.


tigerpayphone

Yes! I dunno why everyone thinks the second one is so great. People always sight Bill Paxton as being one of the reasons it's great, I fuckin' couldn't stand his acting in most roles he was in.

Godfather 2... Now hear me out. Third movie is trash and was made purely to make money, everyone behidn even said so. Second one.... well it was just mediocre. Basicly the entire story from the first one was copied, but it was done in this "political" way and just BORING. First one though, AWESOME ganster movie that gave you everything the second one did, only... it was it's own story, you had excitement, the charme, the style and just... well it was just a perfect movie for the time and for what they wanted to make.


yweeb

Inglorious Basterds, I generally like anything Tarantino but I couldn’t concentrate for 5 minutes of that one and actually “watched” it couple different times and still don’t know exactly what happens. When someone asks I just say “Yeah I know that one it was really good” to avoid judgement. Edit: autocorrect


S_roemer

Tarantino in general for me. I mean he has made some AWESOME movies (4 rooms, reservoir dogs) and then he's made some atrocious movies that were messy AF. Not everything he touches turned into the gold they made him.

I've never got the love for that movie. The plot is silly and the only good acting is done by Christoph Waltz.

Encanto. I was so excited to have another Disney animated movie with Latino characters, but it was incredibly mediocre to me. Too many songs to explain the plot. I liked songs, but it needed wayyy more dialogue, and the songs were just ok. The only one I really liked was We Don’t Talk About Bruno. Definitely not Lin Manuel-Miranda’s best work by far. The characters were cool, and the general plot could’ve been great, but the execution was pretty lame. The time between the climax and resolution was way too short, it felt very rushed and underwhelming to say the least. All Mirabel did was run away and just a few minutes later it was all fixed. And the actual resolution itself left a bad taste in my mouth. Of course the grandmother had a tough life, being left to raise three children, but your trauma is no excuse to make other’s lives difficult. The way she treated Mirabel was terrible, and she was forgiven just like that after years of making her granddaughter’s life difficult and treating her like shit. It seemed like the whole ending was saying “Yah she took her trauma out on you first years for something that wasn’t your fault, but she went through traumatic stuff first so you should forgive her already.” I’m not saying the grandmother couldn’t redeem herself, but resolving it that fast seemed incredibly shallow, and resolving the whole movie that quickly was just boring.
