What was the time travel one that people said was confusing? Because I enjoyed that and thought it was good, just to find out apparently people hated it
My relationship with Morbius.
Sure, the acting and dialogue is bum, but the story, pacing, etc isn't that bad.
CGI, while not great by any means, does it's job.
I'd give it a solid 6/10 rather than the absolutely abysmall ratings given to it officially.
My experience with watching the movie was seeing it streamed on Twitch shortly after release, chroma-keyed just slightly so that anything blue-ish instead showed an endless loop of Milo’s ridiculous sex dance. I think it was the streamer’s attempt to bypass automatic DMCA protections.
This went on almost 24/7 for about a week or so. Every time the account got banned, a new one would pop up a couple hours later. I must have watched the full movie this way 8 times or so. It was magical.
I don't care what others think. If I like it, I like it. Nobody else's opinion is going to matter to me.
For me it was people shitting on TRON:Legacy. I saw it opening weekend in 3D by myself. Fucking loved it. Saw it a second time the following weekend with my gf at the time. She was indifferent to it. I still loved it. Then other people would bash it and even The Big Bang Theory jumped on the tron bashing bandwagon. As far as I care, everyone else is wrong, that movie was amazing for a reboot.
That movie was amazing. And even if you don't like the movie itself you'd have to admit the music is one of the best soundtracks ever made for a movie.
For me that movie was Gentlemen Broncos. It's one of my favourite movies of all time. I think it's hilarious, clever and imaginative. I adore the bizarre characters and I love watching all the different interpretations of the sci-fi story the protagonist wrote. Online reviews consider it average at best and the humour juvenile.
Listening to the opinions of smelly internet people is not useful for matters of taste
Happened to me after watching Thor 2 during covid. I enjoyed it. Looked it up afterwards and it was ranked the worst movie in the MCU up until that point.
That’s why I ignore any sort of reviews when deciding what I should watch. If something looks interesting, I give it a try. I’m not going to let a bunch of miserable assholes who think hating something makes them interesting decide what I get to enjoy.
I'm usually deciding by first thing in order that allows me to:
- description, tags, and whatever I see on the streaming / store / database website; works 90% of the time for stuff I won't like (1 of 10 I like something I didn't think I would) and 70% for stuff I will like (3 of 10 I don't like something I thought I would)
- opinion of people I know - that can be a reviewer I've been watching for some time or a friend
- comments to get some random details (some would consider them spoilers, my shite memory does not)
- opinion of people I don't know - reviews, average rating
- coin toss
I sometimes change my decision after seeing a random clip
Also not every movie needs to be a masterpiece. Some movies need to be the Sunday morning hangover movies. I'm not going to watch Interstellar on a Sunday morning when hungover, I'm going to watch Transformers because I know I can shut off my brain and go "big explosion cool".
