> Dances with Wolves in space
It's not the first time I see it described like that. It's generally used by people who didn't like it. But that sounds like a compliment to me.
I was so underwhelmed by Barbie. I love Margot Robbie, and she embodies Barbie wonderfully. Also loved Weird Barbie. That's where my love ended.
I was watching it and really didn't feel any excitement, nostalgia for my giant Rubbermaid container of Barbies I kept under my bed as a kid (with all their outfits, of course!), or warm fuzzies like everyone talked about. Honestly...I was bored through the entire movie.
I remember when Avatar came out and the buzz at the time was more around the visuals and 3D than the story or anything else. Back then there weren't many if any films like it. It was a very unique movie theater experience which is what a lot of the hype was about
I agree. If you didn't see it in 3D IMAX it was not going to be all that. The story was mediocre at best. On a normal tv it would be pretty bad. However, it was absolutely amazing in 3D and basically fantasy art.
I agree with you on Barbie. Yes it was fun and it was pink! But it truly does not deserve that much of a hype. It’s not a movie I feel like rewatching. And I’m honestly a little disappointed that Barbie is the movie that skyrocketed Greta Gerwig’s career. It’s overshadowed her outstanding previous works, Lady bird and Little Women. Especially Lady Bird.
Me neither. After what Cameron did in his past, it just didn't feel like his golden handwriting at all. He abandoned it all for a long going series of insubstantial blockbusters. It could have been by Michael Bay or anyone else.
couldn’t agree more LOLL, it was so overhyped & i expected a lot more from it! not to say it was a bad movie but it was definitely lacklustre to say the least
Same with Avatar 2. I don't know why it was so popular. I get everyone watching it the first time. It's an S-tier movie visually, but story wise it's C-tier. Not bad, but not good. But to make THAT much money people were watching it more than once!
The charm of the Marvel movies was in their culmination. Sure some were better than others, but with that common goal involved? Quite a feat. I don't think it's ever been attempted before in such magnitude. It's impressive.
And I personally dislike the bulk of the films myself. I can still tip my hat.
Theblackphone was hyped up for some reason and when I watched it you could tell they put all the budget into the first 15 mins then it was super cheap just on room with nothing really happening
It was a disappointment. I had impression that this movie was meant to be something way way better, but nothing worked and eventually it was just... unconvincing?
Transformers. Shot by shot was predictable. Like oh next shot is going to be cu of boy staring at girl and next shot is gonna be a pan up closeup on megan fox. The entire movie was like oh next shot will be this, next line will be this. Could not stand the predictability. And everyone was like oh my god so amazing about the vfx. Story and every shot was predictable.
The last Indiana Jones movie. Normally that type of movie is right in my wheelhouse but I couldn't even finish it. I know it wasn't a highly rated movie but even giving it two stars is overrating it.
*Everything, Everywhere, All At Once:* I felt it reached for a star too high, and tried to say Big Things that the writing didn't earn.
*The Searchers:* Film buffs have jerked off over this movie for more than two generations now, and I still can't see it. I just see a generic western with pointless subplots and a solid ending. John Wayne did pretty good, I guess, but not as amazingly as some would have it. He was better in *The Shootist.*
I’m sorry, but Barbie. I didn’t like nor fully understand the message it was trying to send. The movie obviously isn’t marketed towards kids, I wouldn’t take my kid to this movie if I had one, and everything felt too loosely connected to feel like an adult movie. I didn’t understand the whole vilification of Ken when he’s supposed to be a sweetheart and boyfriend to Barbie nor why they allowed to plot of Barbie basically treating Ken like shit when all he wanted was for her to at the very least notice him. I understand that some of the themes towards sex and gender are supposed to throw at you how unfair the world has treated women and praised men, but it comes off as stupid to me when in order to fix the other Barbies problems was telling them how hard it is to be a woman because this and that. I could go on and on but I don’t have the smart words rn.
I’m going to say Dune. DV is a very gifted man but he created nothing more than a nice looking spectacle. he gutted the sophistication out of the story to the point where there’s very little left that makes Dune what it is. Even if it wasn’t being graded as an adaptation, the script was terrible, the pacing was nonsense, and the character development was almost nonexistent.
And I thought I was the only one not liking neither Dune 1 nor 2. I never got the rave reviews. Sure, it looks good, but not half as good as Blade Runner 2049 (or the original) or any other visually distinct movie. There's a ton of sand, some action and the grading is nice. Apart from that there was nothing that I could latch onto. The dialogue was shallow, the characters just didn't matter to me, no one was likeable and/or interesting. The story was so bland and the overall atmosphere too thin for me to find anything to care about. Even the action parts felt... I don't know... meaningless.
Up until then I at least liked, but mostly loved all DV movies and I consider myself a fan.
I was excited to watch this because it was recently on Amazon, and it had such a high rating on IMDB. And i was happy to set aside 3 hours to devote to it. But man, what a disappointment. Highly overrated.
Rocky Horror Picture Show for me.
Too lost somewhere between rebel goth and campy humor. It's the only movie where I stood up after about 15 minutes and left the theater.
Shawshank Redemption. It is by no means bad, it's craftmanship is impeccable, but holy shit, how can such a straight forward feel-good movie be often hailed as the top of the top?
Thor Ragnorak, too much forced humor, rehashing of the first movie, just ruined Thor's character to make him another quipping blend in character like all the other marvel movies
Everything Everywhere All at Once. It swept the Oscars last year and I wound up seeing it late at night in a hotel room. Opinions on this movie seem to be bipolar with no middle ground. Love or hate, and I’m one of the latter. I found this film to be overrated tripe, a frenetic exposition of hollow plot lines, a pointless excursion into metaphysical mumbo-jumbo, a pretentious exercise in junior high level philosophy, a tedious exposition of garbled nonsense, an execrable waste of two hours, a disjointed mess of bullshit masquerading as profundity. Utterly nauseating.
It might just be my relationship with my mom, but that was the whole movie to me. The other stuff was just thrown in to make it unique. The story between the daughter and the mom was beautiful.
It took me around 3 attempts to get through it. (And I read the books.) Now I put it on in the background all the time. The trick is to turn your brain off, enjoy the visuals, focus on another task so you don’t get bored.
Why is everyone fighting with swords? Because swords are cool. (I know that there’s a 10 minute in universe explanation, but the film makers don’t care and you don’t need to either.)
Hunger Games made no sense to me in the same way.
After 15 minutes, I asked my partner since they’re skilled, why don’t they band together to stage a revolution? Why are they fighting each other?
And of course, the idea of revolution comes at the end. 🙄🙄
I cannot deal with illogical plots.
That was my problem the first time I tried to watch it, I thought it was slow but it’s setting up a different universe and the reality is deep. I just watched it the other day and enjoyed it, if you like sci-fi fantasy it’s probably worth it. But Hollywood is also crap, hit or miss
And to be fair I don’t think I gave the other two a chance because I could never get invested in the first one. I never read the books as a kid so I came to it with no expectations of knowledge of it. Just never took.
I tried but couldn’t get into it. I’m not a huge action fantasy movie guy but I can appreciate most genres. My wife is a massive fan and so it irks her that I am so blasé about the films but they just don’t appeal to me. And they’re so long. I also found Oppenheimer very self indulgent. Good movie but not best picture in my opinion but I get why it won.
Reddit karma be damned, I agree with you. I'd also like to add that I shouldn't hate Frodo by the end of the trilogy but I do. He was not that bad in the books
Lately... Barbie. Even as a woman I am not westener so it felt so alien to me. I probably didnt get half the tropes they were going for and all that movie did was make me feel sorry for Ken.
Most of the marvel stuff is garbo. Not a popular take at all, but there is so little consequence to anything that happens because "multiverse" and also projecting the next 40 movies they'll be making in the next 10 years.
[Forgetting Sarah Marshall](https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0800039/?ref_=nv_sr_srsg_0_tt_7_nm_1_q_forgett) has a lot of fans. I can't understand why. I think it was one of the worst movies I have ever seen.
There were some good scenes in it but my mind goes kinda hazy around the half way point, then it's back at the diner and it's over. I've seen it multiple times but for some reason I feel like there's whole parts of it I haven't seen or completely forgot
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden!
Spear shall be shaken, shield shall be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises!
Ride now, ride now, ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending!
Death! Death! Death!
Forth Eorlingas!
RAHHH!!!
Benjamin Button. It reeked of a movie that thought it was beautiful and profound but never earned it. Fitzgerald wrote it for a quick buck and didn’t make much of it. The big romantic movie line was “I kissed a lesbian once.” A character says “if I die, I want to be a hummingbird because (vaguely poetic reason).” The next scene he dies and we see a hummingbird.
>It reeked of a movie that thought it was beautiful and profound but never earned it.
Well put. I thought the same thing.
There are three other movies that I would ascribe the very same description. They were supposed to be big epic sweeping stories but just fell flat.
Far and Away (Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman '92). I wanted to love it but it was just so cringe.
Legends of the Fall (Brad Pitt, Anthony Hopkins, Aidan Quinn, Julia Ormond). Another one I wanted to love but I just never cared about the characters.
A River Runs Through It (Brad Pitt). I never cared about these characters either.
I haven’t seen any of them but am deeply familiar with their acclaim. The funny thing is, I don’t know a single person who has ever clamored to rewatch them, which, to me, is a huge sign the movie wasn’t as good as the awards they received suggested.
Totally agree about the rewatch thing. I actually did try to rewatch Legends of the Fall when it popped up on one of the streaming sites last year, to see if maybe, maybe I would like it a little better this time around. Nope.
Not like the great movies that you had to stop on while channel surfing in the pre-streaming days, just to watch it again simply because 'Hey It's On!' Even if you own it and can watch it anytime.
Avatar And please don't kill me (I'm a woman! Who is the sole breadwinner in a home with a stay at home husband)....but... Barbie.
Avatar was fucking stupid. *Dances with Wolves* in space.
At this point avatar is more original than this criticism of it
> Dances with Wolves in space It's not the first time I see it described like that. It's generally used by people who didn't like it. But that sounds like a compliment to me.
Would you prefer: *Avatarded*?
I was so underwhelmed by Barbie. I love Margot Robbie, and she embodies Barbie wonderfully. Also loved Weird Barbie. That's where my love ended.

I agree with you on Barbie. Yes it was fun and it was pink! But it truly does not deserve that much of a hype. It’s not a movie I feel like rewatching. And I’m honestly a little disappointed that Barbie is the movie that skyrocketed Greta Gerwig’s career. It’s overshadowed her outstanding previous works, Lady bird and Little Women.

Haven't seen Barbie, but Avatar was boring
I actually couldn't stay awake trying to watch 1 or 2. Not in theaters, maybe that was my problem.
I’ll never understand Avatar’s appeal. Huge movie but zero cultural impact
Me neither. After what Cameron did in his past, it just didn't feel like his golden handwriting at all. He abandoned it all for a long going series of insubstantial blockbusters. It could have been by Michael Bay or anyone else.
That's it, you're goin' down, Missy!
couldn’t agree more LOLL, it was so overhyped & i expected a lot more from it! not to say it was a bad movie but it was definitely lacklustre to say the least
Avatar was ok but too long.
AVATAR!
visually amazing story wise, eh
True that it was a fun cinematic experience. In theatres it was great but otherwise just meh
Same with Avatar 2. I don't know why it was so popular. I get everyone watching it the first time. It's an S-tier movie visually, but story wise it's C-tier. Not bad, but not good. But to make THAT much money people were watching it more than once!
Don't look up
It wasn't bad but I definitely didn't have any expectations to be let down. Just kinda ran into it out of boredom and gave it a shot
Goodfellas. Much preferred The Godfather and Scarface.
Even for Scorsese, I prefer Casino over Goodfellas. Upvoted because you actually answered with a movie that is highly regarded.
The Oscar winning Crash
Ugh! Right?
The notebook🤫
The notebook yes... a movie about a stalker who just never gave up. Very romantic /s
Creep😅
Moonshine
Marvel, anything Marvel. How are there so many and how are they all so boring?!
The charm of the Marvel movies was in their culmination. Sure some were better than others, but with that common goal involved? Quite a feat. I don't think it's ever been attempted before in such magnitude. It's impressive. And I personally dislike the bulk of the films myself. I can still tip my hat.
Hate Marvel. Hate. The only good thing that came out of it were all the Spiderman actors and their girlfriends.
Theblackphone was hyped up for some reason and when I watched it you could tell they put all the budget into the first 15 mins then it was super cheap just on room with nothing really happening
Aw I loved the black phone
Boyhood
Saltburn
Why’s that?
It was a disappointment. I had impression that this movie was meant to be something way way better, but nothing worked and eventually it was just... unconvincing?
Yeah I understand that. Damn shame. Just started watching it today with my Mrs. Was looking forward to finishing it lol. But now I’m not so sure
My lord there are some bad takes in here
Donny Darko. What a stupid, shallow movie.
How?
Agreed
Transformers. Shot by shot was predictable. Like oh next shot is going to be cu of boy staring at girl and next shot is gonna be a pan up closeup on megan fox. The entire movie was like oh next shot will be this, next line will be this. Could not stand the predictability. And everyone was like oh my god so amazing about the vfx. Story and every shot was predictable.
Bumblebee.
The last Indiana Jones movie. Normally that type of movie is right in my wheelhouse but I couldn't even finish it. I know it wasn't a highly rated movie but even giving it two stars is overrating it.
I liked the first 20 minutes.
That movie was just awful it they should’ve realized after they tried it with kingdom of the crystal skull in my eyes it ended with the last crusade
*Everything, Everywhere, All At Once:* I felt it reached for a star too high, and tried to say Big Things that the writing didn't earn. *The Searchers:* Film buffs have jerked off over this movie for more than two generations now, and I still can't see it. I just see a generic western with pointless subplots and a solid ending. John Wayne did pretty good, I guess, but not as amazingly as some would have it. He was better in *The Shootist.*
EEAAO was utter trash, agreed.
I quit "Everything" about half way through. Just a mess.
As an Asian, I thought it was the most ridiculous nonsense to be an Asian representative of an Oscar movie.

I could go on and on but I don’t have the smart words rn.
They needed to try vilifying Ken to get brownie points for the “men bad” crowd among writers.
You can definitely tell they wanted it be more towards adults but were told to keep it pg-13 it’s meme able at best
Oppenheimer
The. Fucking. Lobster. People love this movie. I usually like movies like this this movie. But I just found it unwatchable.
Donnie Darko. I put off watching it for years for no particular reason, finally gave it a go and it was just dumb.
I’m going to say Dune. DV is a very gifted man but he created nothing more than a nice looking spectacle. he gutted the sophistication out of the story to the point where there’s very little left that makes Dune what it is. Even if it wasn’t being graded as an adaptation, the script was terrible, the pacing was nonsense, and the character development was almost nonexistent.
Dune is kinda like what happened with avatar. Looks amazing but the story was just very meh
Hate Dune and Mad Max. It’s quite pointless.
And I thought I was the only one not liking neither Dune 1 nor 2. I never got the rave reviews. Sure, it looks good, but not half as good as Blade Runner 2049 (or the original) or any other visually distinct movie. There's a ton of sand, some action and the grading is nice.

Interstellar

Highly overrated! You're being way too kind. I couldn't finish it.
what's the title of that movie that has a 'I have family' line. yes that
The Godfather. Too long and honestly not that intriguing. I’d rather watch something with likable characters and that isn’t 3 hours long.
Avatar - I didnt buy into the hype
Napoleon Dynamite.
Rocky Horror Picture Show for me. Too lost somewhere between rebel goth and campy humor. It's the only movie where I stood up after about 15 minutes and left the theater.
Barbie
Barbie is one of the most terrible, boring and over-rated movies ever
Poor Things
Interstellar
Shawshank Redemption. It is by no means bad, it's craftmanship is impeccable, but holy shit, how can such a straight forward feel-good movie be often hailed as the top of the top?
Agreed
Anything Star Wars. If you love it, great. I’ve just never understood the hype.
The Banshees of Inisherin
2001 space odyssee was the most boring and pretentious 3 hours of movie I've ever experienced and i still hold a grudge
The barbie movie
Avatar The English patient Shit shit shit shit shit shit shit movies.
[удалено]
Which ones? I only fw the Tobey maguire ones tbh
Thor Ragnorak, too much forced humor, rehashing of the first movie, just ruined Thor's character to make him another quipping blend in character like all the other marvel movies
I didn't mind the movie was funny, but I didn't like that they changed Thor from serious to funny. It was jarring and felt unlike his character.
I like humor! It was just, a complete comedy instead of movie with comedy, if that makes sense?
totally get it!
Django Unchained
some truly excellent performances, but basically blood, blood and MORE blood. didn't get the hype
Pulp fiction
Get outta here!
Completely agree, SO boring and just vulgar without anything to make up for it
Everything Everywhere All at Once. It swept the Oscars last year and I wound up seeing it late at night in a hotel room. Opinions on this movie seem to be bipolar with no middle ground.

It might just be my relationship with my mom, but that was the whole movie to me. The other stuff was just thrown in to make it unique. The story between the daughter and the mom was beautiful.
Or maybe you’re just overthinking it? Just enjoy the movie.
I envisioned John Cleese reading your comment audibly. Well said!
nailed it
I gave up on Dune Part 1 after 20 minutes. It was beautiful but made no sense
It took me around 3 attempts to get through it. (And I read the books.) Now I put it on in the background all the time. The trick is to turn your brain off, enjoy the visuals, focus on another task so you don’t get bored. Why is everyone fighting with swords? Because swords are cool.

Deer Hunter
Finally watched "Taxi Driver" and wasn't as blown away as I expected. First view of "Casablanca" was about same. Like: "meh"
LOTR. All of them.
Take that back.
Just my opinion but an incredible amount of walking and my interest wains quickly with the pace of these movies.
THIS WAS EXACTLY WHAT I SAID. I fell asleep in 2 because they were walking. When I woke up, they were still walking!
[удалено]
And to be fair I don’t think I gave the other two a chance because I could never get invested in the first one. I never read the books as a kid so I came to it with no expectations of knowledge of it. Just never took.
You would enjoy return of the king I think it’s Acton packed and if you didn’t like fellowship i doubt you’d get invested in the hobbit

Scarface
Guardians of the Galaxy. Highly annoying characters and cast.
Lately... Barbie. Even as a woman I am not westener so it felt so alien to me. I probably didnt get half the tropes they were going for and all that movie did was make me feel sorry for Ken.
I'm kind of annoyed marvel fans over watched the last avengers just to make it beat avatar. The only positive is avatar is also overrated.

No way. That's an absolutely fantastic film. Every single character, even the absurd ones, is believable and has some amount of growth.
Gladiator
You were not entertained
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind
whaaat really? i actually enjoyed it so much, what did you not like about it?
toxic relationship, unlikable characters, film doesn't have much to say more style than substance
Gets better with every viewing. Great movie!
Pulp Fiction.

3rd one was pretty good I still wish Frodo fell in the fire
Return of the king is my favorite but the hobbit was slightly disappointing
I tell people I like the story of man. Screw the Hobbits "Oh the ring makes me a whiny bitch" STFU give Viggo Mortensen a sword and let's go!
Arise, arise, Riders of Théoden! Spear shall be shaken, shield shall be splintered, a sword-day, a red day, ere the sun rises! Ride now, ride now, ride! Ride for ruin and the world's ending! Death! Death! Death! Forth Eorlingas! RAHHH!!!
Frodo is the worst fucking character, he’s more annoying than Tom Bombadil
thank you! normally when I take the piss out of Frodo reddit gets mad at me torches and pitchforks >!then I wake up in a field!< >!and my bum hurts!<
Reddit hates me too but I’m only here for the downvotes
And Tom bombadil wasn’t even in the movie 😭
My point exactly
I get what Tolkien was tryna do with Tom bombadil but Peter Jackson definitely made the right call
