Ask Lemmy

I too liked Sherlock Holmes: A Game of Shadows, and as someone else mentioned National Treasure and Transcendence.

For me it's The Core.

I'm Thinking of Ending Things. I love how bizarre it is, watched it like 3 or 4 times. I was surprised to see it has 50% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes.

Probably Elizabethtown - Cameron Crowe movie from 2005.

and it has Christoph Waltz

I just checked, The Colony is only rated 54% on rotten tomatoes, wtf!? I admit it isn't flawless, but it's a welcome addition to the sci-fi genre. Your could sum it up with : "Avatar but the Na'vi are the humans the privileged left on the devastated Earth". The old colonist routine is even more uneasy to watch when it's against your own kind.

I am a lover of trash, behold my list of trash:

• The Possession of Hannah Grace | RT 21%
• Death to Smoochy | RT 42%
• Reign of Fire | RT 42%

Death to Smoochy is a great gem if you haven't seen it.

Me: “let me just go look up Mystery Men real quick… oh.”

Any transformers movie. I just like seeing a bunch of cars transform into robots to then fight each other.

Ang Lee's Hulk.

It’s a smidge over the threshold (63% reviewer score and 29% audience score) but I like this one more than the Ed Norton one (and the thought of him shifting based on heartrate is so fucking dumb) and I’m just kinda meh about Ruffalo’s Hulk.

Sanctum. Was surprised to see it with an audience score of 37%.

Mine is Stealth from 2005. Not high art by any means, but a fun action movie with some pretty cool special effects. Also written by the guy who wrote Big Trouble in Little China and directed The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the Eighth Dimension so bonus there.

The highest upvote comments really didn't understand the assignment.

Rotten tomatoes is a terrible site to sort/filter by. Dear god what terrible UI.

Small Apartments - 30%

It seems like almost no one has even seen this movie. An ex-partner of mine rented it from RedBox one night. I thought it looked dumb, but I watched it anyway. It is rather dumb, but it's also amazing. An incredibly dark comedy. My love of that movie has long outlasted that relationship.

Matt Lucas, James Marsden, Peter Stormare, Dolph Lundgren, Johnny Knoxville, James Caan, Billy Crystal, Juno Temple, Rebel Wilson, Saffron Burrows, Rosie Perez, and Amanda Plummer; An amazing, eclectic cast who deliver an idiosyncratic script expertly, managing to give us an ought-to-be cult classic that's more than the sum of its parts.

Waiting is a fantastic movie. Hilarious, especially towards the end with the new hire. 30% on Rotten Tomatoes.

Sgt Bilko, sitting at 30% from the critics, 47% from viewers.

I thought it was absolutely hilarious when I was about 13, and honestly, it holds up on a re-watch now, if only because Steve Martin and Dan Aykroyd.

Not even gonna front, I actually like the Ryan Reynolds Green Lantern movie.

Pain & Gain only has a 50% score but it's arguably Michael Bay's best film in the last decade.

The Cable Guy and BASEketball flopped and are 55% and 41% respectively but those are two of my favorite comedies of all time.

I don't trust and hence use these rating services. I just watch the full movie
