Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

I saw Prince of Persia mentioned a few times, so I checked it out. It was better than I was expecting. The whole cast did a good job, the story itself was interesting, the cape scene was pretty cool, I like the ostriches, and the fights were alright. The rewind effect was good looking and not overused. The assassins had some nifty weaponry.

As said, nothing to get blown away by, but a pretty fun time overall. I thought of it as an Aladdin action movie. Having seen almost all the other movies in this thread, I was glad to find something good I'd ignored. This was definitely an ok movie.

Eli, was a fun scary movie. Not sure where all the hate comes from

Dude, 3 ninjas: high noon at mega mountain is an amazing kids movie. Every actor is clearly having so much fun and the plot's overblown absurdity allows for super fun set piece action sequences.

I'm 70-80% sure I smoked weed with one of the ninjas, it was probably around 2000, or 2001 and in Pasadena. I wanna say somewhere around Del Mar and Sierra Madre. I wanna say it was Max Slade? Years and smoke make the details hazy.

Hidalgo. It's nothing special but it's a fun story. I don't know how I ended up with the DVD but for a few years it was my go to sick day movie. Its probably been over a decade since I last saw it, it might not hold up.

Slumberland on Netflix. I loved the movie and thought it was so stupid it got a low score on Netflix

Chicken fucking Little

That movie slaps and no one can convince me otherwise

[–] volkhavaar@lemmy.world 2 points 2 years ago

The Cell 45% critic / 57% audience

The aesthetic alone is worth the watch.

[–] Gleddified@lemmy.ca 2 points 2 years ago

Just looked and the original Fast and Furious is the lowest rated somehow? That movie rules

[–] xeekei@lemm.ee 2 points 2 years ago

Underworld is 31%, but 79% audience score? So apparently quite a few people like it, could've fooled me. I might edit this if I find something else.
