I'm 24 so my options are slim for "released during my adult life" but I really like The Greatest Showman and it's got a 57%. Yes, it's wildly inaccurate but dang the music and visuals are great.
My favorite movie of all time is A Goofy Movie from 1995 and just eeked out of the running with a 61%. Seriously, the movie is better than you remember it since you start to empathize with the dad as you grow up. I really recommend it.
I remember liking Paycheck when I saw it in theaters.
The A Team for me. Just scrapes in at 48% rotten tomatoes. Wish they'd made a sequel.
Green Lantern. I think too many people had the expectation of that Green Lantern powers would be something more serious. They were always cartoonish, and Hal Jordan was always a bit of a dick. Ryan Reynolds was probably not the best choice, he's a bit too pretty for the role, but he had the right attitude. Still overall a fun movie.
Scorpion King.
Dumb fun and i love it.
Also as someone else said already, Equilibrium and Prince of Persia.
Small Soldiers (1998) - got 49% Loved this film when I was a kid and I still do.
Hitman
I just like the action, Timothy Olyphant, and like seeing Olga Kurylenko naked.
I really like Brother Bear. I read some "rotten" reviews and I genuinely don't understand them; I can't find anything bad mentioned.
Pain & Gain only has a 50% score but it's arguably Michael Bay's best film in the last decade.
The Cable Guy and BASEketball flopped and are 55% and 41% respectively but those are two of my favorite comedies of all time.
Difficult question to answer when you don't use rotten tomatoes, but the ones I've found are Mortal Engines, Fast and Furios, Oblivion (barely)
Too many to list, but I take Tomato scores with a grain of salt unless they're unusually low. I don't know if I just have a high tolerance for crappy movies or scores are too intolerant there. I've also seen a good number with high scores I thought should be low. Sometimes they rate movies highly just for being unusual or for having some kind of social message, but that hardly ever means better.
Transcendence 19% I'm a sucker for sci-fi with a cool concept like mind uploading
Green Hornet 44% It's funny and the fight choreography is cool
Just watched it the other night, 2013 RIPD. It was crazy, out there, pretty funny and just enjoyable to watch. 12% on rotten tomatoes
Small Apartments - 30%
It seems like almost no one has even seen this movie. An ex-partner of mine rented it from RedBox one night. I thought it looked dumb, but I watched it anyway. It is rather dumb, but it's also amazing. An incredibly dark comedy. My love of that movie has long outlasted that relationship.
Matt Lucas, James Marsden, Peter Stormare, Dolph Lundgren, Johnny Knoxville, James Caan, Billy Crystal, Juno Temple, Rebel Wilson, Saffron Burrows, Rosie Perez, and Amanda Plummer; An amazing, eclectic cast who deliver an idiosyncratic script expertly, managing to give us an ought-to-be cult classic that's more than the sum of its parts.
