Supposedly "great" movies that kind of sucked

[Diane]

I watched Seven Pounds yesterday, I thought that was a great film, actually got a bit weepy at the end, it was a sad film but uplifting at the same time and Will did a great job in it I thought.

Really? Me and Danny just watched it last night too.

It was okay, and yeah, I cried at the end, but it was a bit predictable for me. The only thing that surprised me, is what was used to end it, although it shouldn't have. I'm sure you know what I mean, I don't want to give it away for anyone that hasn't seen it.

The Bourne movies are up there with my favorite trilogies of all time.... I may give Cold Mountain a try another time.. Wasn't in the mood for it... My girlfriend has read a book every week for the 4 years i've known her, and Cold Mountain was the first book that she didn't want to finish..


Shows that we all have different tastes..

I'm a real fan of cheap thrills though... I do like deeper stuff of course, but rarely is a big blockbuster with even a half decent story line wasted on me..

I didn't like Crash either.. Didn't like Monsters Ball or whatever with Halle Berry.. Plus this one will probably get me crucified by a few people, but I wouldn't put Halle Berry in my top 200,000 most attractive women on earth.. Neither with Angelina Jolie.. Both are as overrated to me as just about anything can be overrated....

Darn, every time I try to think of some of the movies I didn't like, I end up just thinking of actors I don't like..


I'll have to dig up one of our "recommend me a movie" threads.. I remember most of the movies recommended were brilliant, but there were a few that I thought were horrible...

Yah man, here our tastes are similar, I also think Jolie is overrated on the hotness scale. A little too skinny and precious for my liking. And not a good actress. I'll say one thing in her defense, she does put her money where her mouth is when it comes helping people in poverty. I think Halle Berry is pretty cool though, until she opens her mouth, which kinda spoils it for me. We wouldn't last a week.

Fight Club i have no idea how it got such a following i think its one of the worst movies i've ever seen. I watched it again just to make sure i didn't miss something, but i didn't just a terrible boring movie throughout.

Um the Bourne movies the camera shook soooo much it is impossible to watch, I don't get how any human on this planet can deal with that shakeycam.

Babel has been mentioned and is spot on.

Most pure action movies, really they all bore me. Die Hard included.

Really?

Sure you're not confused? With Bruce Willis, terrorists taking over the Nakatomi plaza?

I'm not even angry, just sad.

Die hard is one of greatest movies ever made in my book, perfection

yea the Bourne movies sucked really bad. I only watched the 1st one, but that was all i needed to see.

and the Matrix movies suck too. like Spicoli said after the 1st one there was really no need for anymore like really.
