Me and about a dozen other people thought John Carter was great. To me, it was just a fun sci-fi/fantasy movie. Never undestood the hate.
John Carter was only hated by people who follow box office numbers instead of watching movies.
It was great!
My gal hates it because she's a huge fan of the book and apparently they did the whole of it pretty dirty. One of those, "it's fine if you weren't hoping to see anything that made the book unique" type movies.

For me: The JJ Abrams Star Trek movies, by far the best ST stuff ever made, I couldn't take seriously the original universe with the dated effects and stiff acting, same goes for NG... These movies did ST actually great looking and much more believable, not just the effects.
Just kidding... but not really.
Yeah, to each their own, but if you think this, you don't understand why people like Star Trek.

The original super Mario bros movie from the 90s. If I come across it I always get the urge to watch it. Its so weird and interesting, love it. Noone in my family will watch it though they hate it :(

A million ways to die in the west is a solid dumb comedy. The movie has dogshit reviews on every review site but I enjoyed it.
I unironically really want to see Seth McFarlane do more comedies like this one. It was a blast all the way through.

Green Lantern. I went in expecting cartoony quips and got what I expected. Everyone calls it a stupid movie like they went in expecting Shakespeare and found the Muppets. I went in expecting a live action comic book, and yeah that's pretty much what I got. Fun show, watched it a few times now.
No matter how nice you are about Green Lantern, Ryan Reynolds still won’t call you. Don’t ask how I know, it’s a touchy subject.

The latest matrix. I liked it for the critique that it is.
I thought it was absolutely hilarious satire, and I laughed at the entire movie. Everyone told kept telling me to be quiet, but I just couldn’t stop laughing.
It was wonderfully self-aware, and it tore it itself to shreds.
Yeah, I wasn't that excited about the idea of sequel in the first place, mostly because I didn't think there was much point to one. So when I saw Resurrections I was actually pleasantly surprised, and genuinely enjoyed the different tone and lamposting of the dumbness of unnecessary sequels.

You asked for one, but I've got two hills to die on, sorry.

Solo: A Star Wars Story was a lot of fun and I thought it was a solid entry. I didn't really like the Sequels or Prequels, but Rogue One and Solo both stuck out as good titles to me.

Lightyear was a good movie. I really enjoyed it and didn't really understand why it got so much flak.

I like all the Terminator movies. All of them. Time travel, killer robots, Arnold; I know it's wrong but I can't help myself.

I don’t think Red One deserved the hate it got. I know everyone is getting tired of Marvel and the Rock, but I thought applying a Christmas theme to the tropes was actually refreshing.
Like not a great movie, but way more watchable than the last few Capeshit flicks I’ve seen.

Cats (2019). The story is good, the music is good, the casting is good. People made it a huge meme cause of the CGI, but even that is pretty well done. It has a beautiful story, and if you're a pet lover like me, it really makes you emotional. Its also fucking insane. The entire time you watch it, you just go "people spent years of their life and millions to make this". Its a very surreal experience. I've also haven't met a person who has watched the movie and didn't like it.
To be fair, I haven't met anyone who has watched the movie

This is kind of a cheat, as it's been significantly re-evaluated since its release, so I'm not alone, but IMO Twin Peaks: Fire Walk With Me is a masterpiece - it was HATED when it came out though, and even now I suspect there's a lot of people who would say the same.

i always thought the last jedi was one of the best star wars films
Fully agreed
“Freddy Got Fingered”. Not a masterpiece but I found it hilarious. Was surprised it was rated so low online 🤷♂️
