Jurassic World Rebirth

Boring, predictable, and a couple instances of terrible CGI.

Agreed. I didn't hate it, but have no need to ever see it again.

I'll add Social Network. Just don't get what is so great about that movie. Saw it with a big group and every one of us gave it a big meh.

Avengers: Endgame

newest Superman

Blazing Saddles

Probably not fair to say that I "didn't like it" but this was a classic case of a movie being overhyped (it was overhyped to me personally). I was told to prepare myself for the funniest thing I'd ever seen in my life and there was simply no chance that it could live up to what was promised.

Besides Mad Max Fury Road, many of mine have been mentioned already. Granted, I don't know if these really qualify because it's more my "overrated" list and not necessarily movies I didn't like. I would still rate these as decent movies:

Black Panther - Very mid. His character arc in Civil War was fantastic and far outshines Black Panther

Saving Private Ryan - Besides the Normandy scene, the rest of the movie just isn't interesting. I've never had the desire to watch it again. Band of Brothers ****s all over SPR in both character work, story telling, and visuals.

Everything Everywhere All at Once - Entertaining enough movie. But the hype it got seemed to ONLY come from the "Asian representation" bull***** I find that so grating and idiotic. In fact, it was a reason why I went years never watching Crazy Rich Asians. Though, after watching that one, I really enjoyed it and wished they didn't spend the entire marketing campaign talking about Asian representation. Just be a ****ing good movie. Stop with the representation bull***** Without the "representation" angle in EEAAO, it's a 7/10 movie.

There Will Be Blood - Honestly, put most of PTA's movies on my list. I don't know what it is about his movies. I recognize the amazing acting. I recognize the talent in shooting the film. I love many artsy fartsy movies. But, for some reason, PTA movies always leave me feeling nothing and I ultimately never feel like watching them again. Even Boogie Nights is just barely above "meh", for me.

This. constant black & white to color vacillation and disjointed back&forth timeframes, made us dizzy....we walked out on it

Lilo & stitch, the original one. I don't remember exactly why I don't like it. So of course I haven't bothered with the latest one.

Hunger Games - i couldn't get past the absolutely idiotic premise.

Me too- I was bored through most of it. A few good lines here and there, but that bubble burst pretty fast for me.

Going to be extremely unpopular, but all the Star Wars movies. I just can't stand most of the characters.

Citizen Kane, the ultimate film studies nerd movie. I understand why it was important to the history of film, but I can't imagine people actually enjoying the movie other than from a historical perspective.

2001. I love science fiction, I enjoyed the novel. The movie is a total snooze fest. Honestly, other than A Clockwork Orange and the first half of Full Metal Jacket, I'm not a fan of Stanley Kubrick.

I agree about Kubrick. Always found most of his stuff pretty overrated.

A couple of titles that come to mind:

The Goonies
The Sandlot

For the first, I was just out of high school but felt like I would have loved that one about 5 years earlier
For the second, I was not yet a parent, recently graduated from A&M and just didn't connect with it. Years later, I appreciated it far more as a parent with a baseball playing son.

Well in my defense, I haven't had any caffeine yet this morning
