The first Mad Max movie, just feels like a slog at times to get through and when you finally finish it there’s no resolution it’s just a cliffhanger into the next movie.
I tried twice to watch The Godfather and fell asleep both times. Nothing about it caught me at all.
It bored me. Tried the second one, didn’t get better.
So i’m not the only one.
Napoleon Dynamite. The main thing I got from the movie was that know I know where a meme comes from.
I’ve never understood the fascination people had/have with this movie.
When this came out I went to the ends of the world to get a copy after missing out on all of the references… And then it was fine. I think it’s kinda funny know but I don’t understand how it blew up the way it did
I may get a lot of hate for this, and I wouldn’t say it was a huge disappointment because I actually really liked most of the movies but, Star Wars.
I thought they were great moviees, but when watching them after years of everyone telling me to and all the hype I was kind of disappointed even though I enjoyed watching them all. For me they just didn’t live up to the hype I guess.
The Big Lebowski is extremely boring and nonsensical.
I’m afraid to watch the Princess Bride because everyone I know loves it and begs me to watch it and I’m afraid it will be terrible and when they ask me how it was I’ll have to lie

Mean Girls is ok. It has some good meme quotes, but it isn’t really a good movie.
Heathers is better for that kind of movie
Donnie Darko.
Not a terrible movie, just an extremely odd film of which I have never understood the cult following.
Nah, it was at least a little terrible.
I always recommend watching the director’s cut. It’s like a totally different movie and gives more context.
How is the sequel?
Lol, we don’t talk about the sequel. If you watch his other movies and interviews, it’s clear that Donnie Darko’s director was actually terrible and just managed to accidentally make something amazing.
Synecdoche New York. Every one of my friends who’ve seen it think it’s brilliant. I tried watching it and felt like I was losing my mind. I know that’s the point, but that doesn’t make it a good movie!
I can’t stand the Fifth Element. On paper, it should be perfect for me but I just find it really obnoxious.
Same. So much non-sense. I remembered it epic. I watched a month ago and I regretted it to have wasted my time like that
lmao, I just recently realised I’ve seen that movie so many times and have no idea what it’s about.
I always get hate for this but Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
For years I heard it be revered as the best comedy film of all time, it was hyped up so much, then I finally saw it… And didn’t even laugh once.
That taught me that hype is a powerful thing (look at Cyberpunk for instance), because whatever our mind comes up with, will never live up to the actual final product.
I like it a lot but can totally understand this.
Almost all of them when I had read the book first.
The Hobbit
The latest (The Hobbit) I got my son to read the book, then watch the movies and he’s like ‘Whaaaaaa???’ because they tried to amplify it into a blockbuster.
So yes, Great movie - but sucked after reading the book.
A Clockwork Orange. I read the book first and was excited to see the movie but ultimately I found it really slow and boring. It’s not a great adaptation in my opinion.
Rocky Horror has one of the weakest 3rd acts I’ve ever seen.
Ive never seen the live show so it might just be pains trying to fit a 2 act musical into a traditional 3 act movie
The whole move goes downhill after they serve meatloaf for dinner.
No country for old men. I get that it’s supposed to be bleak and not resolve at the end. I still hate that it’s bleak and doesn’t resolve at the end. I didn’t really get the “amazingness” of the coin flip scene either.
I also thought Blade Runner was ok, but the whole “tears in the rain” monologue is so hyped on the internet that it was a bit meh when it actually happened.
No country for old men. I get that it’s supposed to be bleak and not resolve at the end. I still hate that it’s bleak and doesn’t resolve at the end.
Yes! I was expecting more, and was left feeling cheated at the end with no resolution. It felt like wasted time.
