Movies With Terrible Rotten Tomatoes Scores That Are Actually Awesome

[@Looper]

Are there any other movies you would recommend?

[@ThisIsOfficiallyCinema]

Man of Steel and Batman v Superman

[@mawnster7518]

Highlander

[@zanethind3533]

Personally I liked Saw 2 better than Saw one. Saw films have been up and down imo.

[@zanethind3533]

Step Brothers was awesome

[@staticthewhitewolf7040]

Anything that MSM critics and critic on rotten tomatoes pan. I have not listened to critics since Siskel and Ebert panned Star Wars and then pretended they did not two weeks later.

[@deezznutzz6633]

I want to mention Robin hood: Men in tights. This movie rocked😂

[@PhilPetrella]

I love A Knight’s Tale! It’s one of my guilty pleasures

[@WillGarza-l9w]

Not even guilty, I absolutely love it!

[@PJWestfield]

I can watch it over and over! I loved its blend of times and the soundtrack was fantastic!

[@EddieBloecher]

Oh and the part with his dad makes me blubber every time. Lol Great film I like it as well.

[@EddieBloecher]

​@@PJWestfield Oh my God that soundtrack!!! Motivational rocking awesomeness!!

[@adamarket]

It's a great movie. When my daughter was growing up, we'd watch it once a year.

[@ZimCrusher]

I worked on Tokyo Drift. We did all the CG cars. Note that ALL the actions the cars did, could have been done by the incredible drivers they had, but we were forced to create CG cars because of Laws in Japan. Certain areas were not allowed to be film on/blocked off, and others were considered to dangerous to film, even after stunt drives proved they could do the action multiple times without fail. The director could tell a driver, "We need you to drift 1 foot closer to this pole" and the drive could nail it next run. They were THAT good.

[@KhingGaming]

One of my fav movies ever. 🙏🏽 thank you

[@JaFlorendo]

Christopher nolan loves the whole fast and furious franchise

[@PolarBear_Gaming_More]

13:01 National Treasure was a cinematic gem and an unforgettable journey worth every moment.

[@stanleystaklight7555]

Absolutely love Chronicles of Riddick, the franchise deserves a new trilogy

[@Almiqui2006]

Diesel and Twohy intend the Riddick movies to mirror Hobbit+LOTR. As such, Riddick:Furia is in development. Also, a tv show called Merc City is floating in the etherspere

[@brianbresson2237]

Id add the Last Action Hero. It also rocks

[@scruffylookingNerfherder5742]

I couldn't agree more. If you don't take it seriously and just switch off your brain and enjoy the insanity, you'll have a grand old time!

[@justmytwocents5166]

Great shout🤘

[@BobbyJCox]

That scene in TMNT, when The Foot Clan soldier strikes the power cable and sets April’s apartment on fire, epic; that music changes and you realize this isn’t just a kids movie and there are real stakes.

[@jamesmorgan9280]

Empire Records is an excellent movie. Thanks!

[@MetFreak42]

Damn the man! SAVE the Empire! 🤘😁🤘

[@MetFreak42]

Imo, the "Remix" version they came out with several years later is a far stronger presentation.

[@andrewmize823]

Pitch Black is the best of the Riddick movies, imo. I didn't hate the sequels, I just liked Riddick better in a pure sci-fi setting without the fantasy elements introduced in the middle movie.

[@geraldmorgan6906]

The whole Necromonger thing really didn't work for a live-action movie. Though not for lack of trying by Karl Urban's always excellent performance.

[@LordKohaegan]

Legend is my all time favorite movie, it has been since I saw it as a kid, and I love it even more now. Everything from the acting, story, special effects, and music is amazing. It's a timeless movie that will never be dated.

[@fatkidsgettinghurt]

I can't believe it got bad reviews. It's unlike anything else

[@billymidkiff3701]

It's been one of my favorites since I was a kid also, Labyrinth,Back to the Future,Robocop, and a few others that I can't think of at the moment

[@DrtyALGreen]

That is the only film that ever creeped me out as a kid. I don't think I could get through Tim Currys character now and I'm 40.

[@adamarket]

I saw Legend at the theater. It was a disappointment besides Tim Curry and the make up team which made the viewing entirely worth it.

[@jedibasschoke8909]

The most terrifying thing in that movie was the swamp witch character. Absolutely freaky.

[@KidFresh71]

A Knight's Tale is so great! There are a few scenes that were cut, that should never have been cut; scenes which give the supporting characters more depth and clearer motivations. Also, Kung Pow is a laugh riot! I saw it in the theater, and absolutely busted a gut. So many laugh out loud moments.

[@MinecraftMartin]

Kung Pow wasn't even trying to be good. It was purposefully bad, that was the point. Never paid attention to rotten tomatoes to give me my opinions. Seems like that has been a good choice

[@CitadelofRicks]

I love the DVD audio track. 🤣

[@ChoCoMoCo69]

That baby falling scene still cracks me. 😂

[@BlackHammer0891]

Tokyo Drift has some of the best driving sequences committed to film at the time

[@dozer11]

Agreed! The vast majority of the driving was practically done with some exceptions like the wide shot mountain drive scene.

[@residentrump3271]

Loved the fact it was set in Japan too 👍🏿

[@geraldmorgan6906]

Unfortunately it had that marble-mouthed goon as the lead. Whoever cast that clown should never work in Hollywood again.

[@gerarduspoppel2831]

That opening scène with the viper is still the best one of them all.

[@Almiqui2006]

There were a couple of older Japanese men fishing and watching the races. One of them was actually the "drift stunt driver"

[@thomashauguel6811]

Spaceballs is such a wonderful film that it's hard to imagine it didn't do better at the theaters. You know it's good when the George Lucas praises it. Pure genius.

[@junzsi]

Damn Warcraft should’ve continued. That was actually enjoyable and they brought they characters in well

[@markdaley9882]

they should have done it like a mini series

[@facetiouslyinsolent8313]

I agree with you 100% Microsoft is currently in development on another live action movie and a cartoon. I can't wait. I loved the movie no matter what the critics said. American's just didn't show up in the theatre to support it.

[@808pochoboy]

Just notice that Ragnar Lothbrok is one of the characters

[@edmawhinney3564]

What an amazing list of mostly awesome movies. Thank you

[@olleselin]

Yes, Space Jam is a classic!

[@remisramosc]

The TMNT and the first Mortal Kombat are my favorite guilty-pleasure childhood movies. You know, one goes for the Neverending Story of Labyrinth in public but I didn't watch those on the cinema, but I went to see TMNT and MK, and my childhood was immensely better for it.

[@allenwurl6245]

Mortal Kombat is how I discovered KMFDM 🤘

[@Grimmance]

Things you learn as a media analyst specializing in movies is that most film critics are movie school people, which means they have fairly narrow definitions of what makes a good movie, meanwhile the public actually watches movies for enjoyment and not because they couldn't find a niche in said movie industry outside of criticism. This is why movies that adhere to the Kubrick Rubrick or the Spielberg iceberg get higher criticism ratings even if the public absolutely loathes the movie. Lots of film makers loved the movies of the late 70s early 80s and 90s, and they keep making them without knowing what actually made the movies so memorable. Kinda like tracing an artists drawings and not realizing why your drawings aren't as loved.

[@gelobledo]

Tokyo Drift was my favorite F&F movie. Something about how it takes a kid out of his element and throws him into this new underground that he does not understand. From the main character knowing nothing about drifting to becoming a great drifter to win was a great ride. The First TNMNT will never be duplicated or done better in my opinion. Such a great movie glad they stuck more to a movie that appealed to both kids and adults. I still watch it today. The first two mummy movies were great even with the rocks bad cgi. I loved these two movies like a more mythical indiana jones. Space balls will always be one of my favorite movies and often quoted.

[@Camoback.Ape7]

A good chunk of these movies live in a happy place in my memories! Goes to show some things are better with time

[@ComicPower]

Are you kidding me. Who gave spaceballs bad reviews. Its hilarious and so quotable. Darth helmet. Lol

[@BigRichard-g2w]

Rotten Tomatoes is nothing but SSE! (Small Schwartz Energy)

[@jonmendelson1104]

Dark Helmet*

[@ps3gamertagc021297]

When you said old country buffet, brought back memories from my childhood. Used to go every Sunday after church in upstate NY

[@thebarbaryghostsf]

I love all of these films, and I saw Spaceballs in the theater, so you're welcome Mr. Brooks. lol

[@alaricsanford4301]

Am I wrong for laughing when in Final Destination,the girl was having a breakdown, stepped in the street,and got hit by a bus? It was definitely a Wild E Coyote moment !😂😂😂

[@gerarduspoppel2831]

Saw in in the theater. Everybody laught.

[@jamesalexander1950]

Final destination traumatized a whole generation

[@akaBoG]

Okay, this is actually a superb list.

[@justinjohnson293]

TMNT, Saw, Godzilla KOTM, A Knights Tale, Sister Act 2, Chronicles of Riddick and Tokyo Drift all get regular play in my house. I had no idea they were all frowned upon. Just good wholesome enjoyable movies to me and I feel no guilt about declaring that to the world!

[@LUVBOTZ]

Tim Curry wasn't playing Satan. He was playing Darkness. The literal personification of darkness. Basically an anthropomorphic version of the Red Bull from The Last Unicorn.

[@MisfitParade]

True.

[@donaldseale2700]

That's why I wonder if he's even seen any of these movies or just reading some AI script. I noticed certain details he got wrong on some of the other movies as well.

[@PamArtsValentine]

A Knights Tale is awesome!

[@sgtoz]

Legend is an epic and awesome film. One of my all time favorites.

[@ryanbrockmiller1648]

I Love every one of these movies, I had no idea they didn't do good in the theatres. For me Tokyo Drift is the best Fast movie, that Monte Carlo is my absolute favorite car of the whole series.

[@StarlordSeven]

I loved the Warcraft movie Travis Fimmel as Anduin Lothar the Lion of Azeroth I could definitely see more sequels but sadly. 2016 and 2017 wasn't really a great year for movies I wanted sequels to.

[@geraldmorgan6906]

He was what was wrong with that movie. Son of a bitch kept grinning inappropriately through the entire film. I don't know about you but if I just watched my only son get brutally killed, I wouldn't be grinning like a fool about it. Terrible acting.

[@zanethind3533]

Man I LOVE TMNT the movie. I still love all 3 of them and I ain't changing my mind. I also love the Mummy movies as well. Ain't changing my mind on that too. And National Treasure deserves a 3rd movie.

[@elainethomas9737]

Tokyo Drift just seemed a bit odd. Is it just me or did that guy give him a new car every time he destroyed or lost a car so he could win money pay him back? Why would he keep trusting him cars to destroy?

[@gerarduspoppel2831]

Han did not care anymore. Money was nothing for him. He just wanted to see him become the new dc

[@patriciafenwick5846]

Loved A Knights Tale, Paul Bettany was a hoot as Chaucer (medieval author who wrote The Canterbury Tales). Loved Legend. It was such an un Ridley Scott film after Alien and Blade Runner

Empire Records was the 90s. The characters were the real life portrayals of all the cool kids we looked up too. This movie is a constant reminder today that we took the wrong path and say "Damn the Man. Save the Empire!"

[@REALRICHVICTOR]

NATIONAL TREASURE! One of our faves. Must watch every few months. Forget "guilty pleasure" - it's just a pure all out pleasure! Scene after scene of good memorable fun and excitement. I don't pay much attention to critics any more.

[@facetiouslyinsolent8313]

The Warcraft movie was incredible. I have never used Rotten Tomatoes ratings but after finding out Warcraft has a 29% and Heaven Is For Real has a 52% I laughed non-stop. When the Warcraft movie is more realistic than the religious movie and made 300 million more. Hilarious!

[@esmewvimes2901]

Most of these are my re-watchable guilty pleasures. If your loved one can't trade movie quotes with you at Ludicrous Speed, are they really right for you? If a guy can't recite Mel Brooks or Monty Python, there is no second date. Standards. The Godzilla movie was nowhere on my radar, so I'm checking it out. (My mom made us call it Gosh-zilla as kids. I shit you not.) Heath Ledger still breaks my heart. I hated most of the characters in Pitch Black so much that I rooted for the aliens, but I'm embarrassed to say how many times I've watched Chronicles of Riddick. I thought Summer School with Will Ferrell as hilarious, but it doesn't get the love his other roles do.
