I don’t think anyone hates it but Congo has a low rating online despite it being one of my favourite movies of all time. I can recite or word word

Jupiter's Ascending.. it was nice 👍
10,000 BC. Pretty sure it got a raspberry or whatever for being the worst movie.
I dont know why people think it needs to be historically accurate or believe, its an adventure movie.
Such a fun adventure.
Oh, man, where to start. I mean, the Kelvin Trek movies are definitely not the best Trek, but I do enjoy all of them. But speaking of contrarian appreciation, I think most of Star Trek Discovery is also pretty solid, barring perhaps the very last season.
I'm partial to Lynch's Dune, too. Maybe I just got used to it over time?
In the least hip stance possible, I actually think there are very few bad Marvel movies and most are worth at least a cheerful watch (not you, Doctor Strange 2, you suck).

There is an often panned movie starring Robin Williams called Club Paradise. It's not a good movie but it's a fantastic feature length SNL skit.
Alien Covenant.
People talk about the characters being unrealistic, I think they're just different to movie characters and normal humans.
I really enjoyed the film.
This year I genuinely enjoyed Megalopolis. It looks great and it's thoughtful. People won't "get it" for probably 10 years.
There is nothing to get. It is even more basic than philosophy 101, yet it thinks it is some sort of insightful writing. It is cringe and embarrassing, kinda like a 15yo who just read a reddit post on /r/philosophy and then got high and wrote a movie script.
I do think it is a "so bad, it is actually good" kind of movie. It is almost like a sarcastic movie, making fun of pretentious movies. Maybe this will become the narrative in the future, especially once Coppola is dead.
It will become a cult classic, but not for the reasons Coppola wants.
