    A Serious man - Coen Brothers.

    I found the film funny and thought it was well done but have seen loads of comments saying it was pretty much shit and you had to have an understanding of Jewish religion to get it. I'm not Jewish but worked most of it out and still found funny.

    If you mean the one with Ralph 'Karate Kid' Macchio (sp?) then I'm not sure everyone hated it.

    Steve Vai and Ry Cooder..... Nice....


    Although there seems to be another film of the same name featuring Brittany...... Hm that might have less people who like it.

    I've heard that most think Goblet is the worst of the lot. Still, maybe I move in the wrong circles. ;) For the record, I feel that Phoenix is more like in the middle quality wise in the Potter series (I fairly enjoyed it myself), but certainly not the worst: that honour goes to Goblet. Still, saying that, Goblet isn't a bad film as such, just a bit below average.

    Burton's Planet of the Apes is probably the one I'd add to this growing list. It's hated by many, but I find it endearing.

    It's a great film, one of the funniest spoofs ever made yet still managing to have great affection for the genre it's spoofing.

    I've never met anybody who doesn't like it.:confused:

    Maybe you're meeting the wrong people? :D

    2012 - Probably a one-time watch but I enjoyed it.
    Final Destination 4 - I wouldn't say I loved it but it was better than people were making out, IMO.
    Green Street 2 - Again I wouldn't say I loved it, but it was a worthy watch.
    A View To A Kill - Not the best Bond film but a great action flick in itself.

    Death Proof

    I loved that movie when i saw it at the cinema. People walked out half way through. I dont think they liked the amount of dialogue in it.

    Reminds me, I need to buy it on DVD to complete the grindhouse collection.

    Burn After Reading.

    Loved it, great subtle to outrageous comedy performances, sharp dialogue.

    This wasn't a great film, but like you said I enjoyed it a lot and thought it was better than reviewers made out :)

    Next time you watch it keep an eye on sigourney weavers lips when they are moving through the ship & get to the chompers. You can clearly see her saying "F**K THAT" but its badly dubbed to "screw that"

    cracks me up every time

    Matrix Reloaded .

    I think it's a work of genius , but most of the fans and the public seem to dislike it , ( or it seems that way .)

    The first one was genius the second one seemed to be an all out braaawwwl.

    Still enjoyable nevertheless.

    Agree with the above posters about Reloaded being pretty good - I wouldn't go as far as genius though. Though it has some interesting ideas which people knock...


    anyway I'd like to add my support for the two live action Scooby Doo films
