Flipping another topic around...what movies do HATE, but everyone else likes?

2001:Space Odyssey.

It's very well-made and all, but I just can't sit through it. it just drags on and on.

the shawshank redemption: "the prison is life, man!" it's just so broad and heavy handed. the individual parts aren't much either.

requiem for a dream: i think aronofsky is a really talented director who has worked on plenty of great films, but requiem just feels pointless. the mother's story kind of interesting in that it broadens the typical scope of drugs, but the other stories are just redundant "drugs are bad and make you do bad things" wagging fingers.

a mix of popular and/or highly regarded movies here...

Lord of the Rings movies

Matrix movies

Toy Story 3

Crash

Pirates of the Caribbean movies

Let the Right One In

Shutter Island

Training Day comes to mind. One of a few movies where the ending pretty much ruins what would have been a terrific movie to me....

No Country For Old Men. Couldn't stand any part of that movie.Guppy507

Batman movies

Lord of the ring Movies

Star Wars
Batman
Spiderman

meh...

No Country For Old Men was fan-fvcking-tastic. Probably my favourite Coen Bros film. How can you hate the whole film seriously.

Anyway, I'm waiting for people to list movies. I can't think of any atm

2001:Space Odyssey.

Every movie can get ruined when you have to study it and write essays on it.. that sucks.

Let me just say, I don't hate any of these movies, I just don't like them that much.

Rear Window
The Searchers

and more recently, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest.

2001:Space Odyssey.

the hangover 1 and 2- complete waste of my fvcking time...i really wanted to like it given the hype but i just don't find it funny; the sequel is a re-hash of the same brain dead humor


anchorman-once again will ferril reprises his role as a complete retard much like his roles in talladega nights, step brothers, old school, the other guys and pretty much ever other "comedy" he's ever been in


zoolander-i think this is mostly due to the fact that i hate ben stiller...not as a person just as an actor ew. he's pretty funny in dodgeball, though

i suppose i should point out that i rarely enjoy comedies...sh!ts just not funny

The goonies, everyone says its a classic but i thought it sucked

Step Brothers

Into the WildKiIIyou

End of that made me cry something tragic
Defs shouldn't have watched it stoned

TDK- the phenomenal performance of one actor doesn't make up for the rest of a poor movie.dagreenfish

The Princess Bride and Lord of the Rings.

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo

Godfather, Apocalypse Now, Citizen Kane, 8 1/2, Clockwork Orange, The Searchers, Raging Bull, To Kill a Mockingbird, or basically any other movie considered to be an all-time great. -Tish-

-Anything by Wes Anderson not called "Fantastic Mr Fox"
-Signs. I know it isn't loved by everybody but I also think it gets a lot more credit than it deserves. It's one of the worst films I've ever seen.
-Both Snatch. and Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels
-Donnie Darko
-The Coen Brothers have about a 70% success rate with me. I'm not a fan at all of O Brother, Where Art Thou?, A Serious Man, or Burn After Reading (BAR has its moments). On the other hand I think Big Lebowski, Fargo, and No Country for Old Men are brilliant
-The Nightmare Before Christmas
-The Deer Hunter

And probably the one that will get me the most hate:
A Christmas Story

Have you seen Moonrise yet JML?

Also you forgot to put His Girl Friday in your list of hated movies:P

[QUOTE="Guppy507"]No Country For Old Men. Couldn't stand any part of that movie.bobbetybob

Yes, that part was a bit hard to follow, but that is exactly how it is written in the book. Probably the most faithful adaptation of a novel I've ever read, everything including the dialogue is pretty much exactly the same.

LoTR (all of 'em)

The Titanic

Se7en

Drive

American Beauty

2001: A Space Odyssey

Anchorman (Seriously, it's not funny)

The Sixth Sense

Inception

Burn After Reading (Although the guy getting shot in the head caught me way off guard)

Beetlejuice, Avatar, Blade Runner... Most recently Dark Knight Rises
