Apollo 18. It just has the atmosphere, sense of isolaton and impending doom.
Also Life which is thematically similar, but higher production value.
And in the same vein, Europa Report, though it has critic score of 80. One of the best hard sci-fi films ever.
Almost forgot Pandorum—that one was decent, too.
As was Prometheus (I know biologists and geologists IRL, studied biology myself—the films depiction of these folks is spot on!).
Batman v Superman is great, it just doesn't fit the usual super hero movie tropes in my opinion. The ultimate edition is awesome
Legend(2015) has an audience score of 59% for some bizarre reason. I'd think anyone that was onboard for the permise enough to watch it in the first place would enjoy it a lot. I know I did, great movie.
I’d like to see lists where both the tomato meter score and audience score are below 60
Mine is Stealth from 2005. Not high art by any means, but a fun action movie with some pretty cool special effects. Also written by the guy who wrote Big Trouble in Little China and directed The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension so bonus there.
Tenet is criminally under rated at 69%. Easily one of my favorite movies of all time.
Envy (2004) starting Jack Black and Ben Stiller. I recently rewatched this as it had been 10+ years since I last saw it. I was pretty surprised to see how poorly rated it was. Supposedly Jack and Ben even apologized for it. I don't know, I still think it's funny.
I Come In Peace / Dark Angel (1990) - campy sci-fi action with a really interesting premise.
I watched it as a kid on VHS in the early nineties, then spent 20 something years trying to remember its name.
Ditto, I genuinely enjoyed watching that
The little mermaid: Return to the sea
Rated 45% https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_little_mermaid_2_return_to_the_sea
I like it because there's not many movies that just concentrate on swimming around in the ocean. I genuinely like it when I'm sick or background noise.
Fired Up. Sitting at 24 percent from critics.
Was it as good as Not Another Teen Movie? No, probably not. But it still had some hilarious moments and lines. I especially enjoyed the long running jokes they kept sneaking in throughout the movie.
Bench warmers
For people with Letterboxd I found some lists where it's easier to compare with your watched movies (by hovering):
https://letterboxd.com/23warnecol/list/good-movies-with-bad-rotten-tomatoes-scores/
https://letterboxd.com/poisonivies/list/good-ratings-on-letterboxd-bad-ratings-on/
https://letterboxd.com/pakejanek/list/good-movies-with-bad-rotten-tomatoes-scores/
Now personally I've watched very few of the movies in those lists and almost all of those I've given very bad scores or have abstained to. The best one was 3/5 for Star Wars Episode I, which I though was fine.
