Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that’s an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.
I’ll go first: I think “Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows” was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.
and it has Christoph Waltz
Sucker Punch (2011). Seriously underrated.Dont get why many people consider this movie plotless.
Beerfest
Boondock Saints (Nov 99 is close enough). It’s such a fun movie, but only has a 27%
Speed 2: cruise control
I know its likely unpopular, even for a list like this, but i find myself genuinely enjoying putting it on. Quite often.
It is an action movie, but it isnt all dark & gloomy like so many in the genre. Instead, its bright and sunny. The scenarios genuinely make no sense (ex, door handles apparently dont exist) but the movie still feels fun and entertaining.
I remember liking Paycheck when I saw it in theaters.
Eli, was a fun scary movie. Not sure where all the hate comes from
I liked Transcendence and I thought it my qualify. 19% from critics, 37% from audiences. Wow, it is over qualified.
I am proud to say that Young Einstein is my favourite Australian movie of all time.
The Super Mario Bros movie. It was really good but for some reason has a 59% rating on the tomato-meter, despite a 95% audience score. Very strange and it’s why I just don’t trust Rotten Tomatoes.
Tenet is criminally under rated at 69%. Easily one of my favorite movies of all time.
Dude, 3 ninjas: high noon at mega mountain is an amazing kids movie. Every actor is clearly having so much fun and the plot’s overblown absurdity allows for super fun set piece action sequences.
The New Guy! 7% tomatometer and 54% audience score. It’s still my favorite feel good movie and the funky music is amazing.
G.I. Joe: Retaliation
Cowboys & Aliens
Surfer, Dude. - criminally underrated and a great chill movie. Also, “get outside more” is a great theme. I dig it and wish more people did.
