Your Unpopular Movie Opinions
Since this is today's theme, I've always had a very unpopular view of a certain movie, and would love to hear other's opinions based off of movies and/or actors. Mine: I think Wedding Crashers is a terrible movie, and not funny.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:32 PM ^
The Hangover wasn't funny.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:41 PM ^
Hangover is awesome.
Hangover II is awful and Hanover III is one of the worst movies of all time.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:44 PM ^
Now I hope they make a Hangover 4 just so we can see where the trajectory leads us to next.

It just continues to be unfunny like the rest of them.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:42 PM ^
Agree so much. So much agree.
February 13th, 2015 at 7:11 PM ^
I'll go a step further and call the Hangover the most overrated comedy of all time. The humor was so forced and predictable. Corny movie all the way around. Then again, Applebees is the most successful restaurant in America...
February 13th, 2015 at 10:27 PM ^
The first 30 minutes I think are great and then the rest is so so
February 13th, 2015 at 4:32 PM ^
/hangs head in shame
February 13th, 2015 at 4:40 PM ^
Anna Kendrick? Yes please. No shame there.
February 13th, 2015 at 5:34 PM ^
She is below average if you aren't a recluse.
February 13th, 2015 at 7:13 PM ^
That's why internet nerds are so in love with her. She looks obtainable.
I find her gross and obnoxious. She resembles a hamster.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:42 PM ^
...we all liked Pitch Perfect, we're just afraid to admit it.
Dudes of a certain age like Mean Girls and The Notebook as well. Just like dudes of an older age liked Dirty Dancing.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:48 PM ^
Dudes don't like Notebook. Dudes all love Mean Girls and are fairly open about it.
February 13th, 2015 at 5:13 PM ^
+1 for being right on!
February 13th, 2015 at 5:27 PM ^
so fetch
February 14th, 2015 at 7:54 AM ^
Stop trying to make fetch happen.
February 13th, 2015 at 5:00 PM ^
I loved Pitch Perfect and also sort of loved Bridesmaids. Take my mancard I dont even care anymore.
February 13th, 2015 at 7:52 PM ^
...another very good movie. Spot on.
February 14th, 2015 at 8:58 AM ^
The jokes were so forced it was painful. They tried to do a chick version of The Hangover. It was a paint my numbers comedy. Ugh
February 13th, 2015 at 5:42 PM ^
I can't stop watching Pitch Perfect and Legally Blonde once I start. I can't explain it other than I enjoy them I guess.
I can't believe that my "thumbs up" for movies here goes to those two, Red Dawn, and Iron Eagle. I had to toss something fairly manly in there at the end.
February 13th, 2015 at 10:29 PM ^
Once I start watching it , I'll usually watch the whole thing almost.
February 15th, 2015 at 6:15 PM ^
Me too... I find an excuse to watch it with my daughter whenever it's on
February 13th, 2015 at 4:33 PM ^
movies nowadays are mostly recycled ideas and caters to the lowest common denominator. it's now more about profit than an artform.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:37 PM ^
That isn't an unpopular opinion, it's FACT.
February 13th, 2015 at 5:03 PM ^
Kind of like music and American culture in general.
February 14th, 2015 at 7:53 AM ^
"Kind of like music and culture in general."
Fixed it for you. :)
February 14th, 2015 at 1:15 PM ^
I partially disagree. Those movies are certainly out there, but they've always been out there. The fact is that people just remember the ones that aren't like that. But movies have always been recycled, there have been tons of remakes and re-imaginings. Some of the movies concidered the greatest of all time are actually remakes.
The fact of the matter is that, yes, you can find similarities between movies. You can find the same in books and music and most everything else. Most ideas have been done. But that doesn't necessarily make movies worse now than in the past. You have to take them for what they are. And I'm typing this while watching "Make Way For Tomorrow" from 1937.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:34 PM ^
All Horror genre movies suck.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:39 PM ^
Alien and Aliens were pretty good, right?
February 13th, 2015 at 4:34 PM ^
Terrance Malik is overrated. I don't get why people think staring at a leaf for 10 min is great film making.
February 14th, 2015 at 1:18 PM ^
Malik makes beautiful pictures. He has interesting and worthy ideas. But he desperately needs an editor, both for his scripts (which he doesn't much follow anyway) and for his finished film, because he's terrible at actually crafting a story in terms of pacing, flow, etc. But because it's different some claim it's better. Meh
February 13th, 2015 at 4:35 PM ^
I think Boondock Saints is a terrible movie. There, I said it

Any Dan DeVito film automatically gets infinite thumbs up from me, regardless of his role in it.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:35 PM ^
I like pitch perfect and frozen.

Frozen is a great movie, but I see it through my 3 yr old daughters eyes.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:42 PM ^
If you argued Frozen was the greatest cartoon movie (aimed at kids) of all time, you'd be in a pretty good spot. It has some really unique aspects that put it in a class by itself -- among one point, it has no evil character, no one who makes kids feel uncomfortable or scared. It has some bad guys, but not like an evil witch. As grownups we don't appreciate that; young girls particularly gravitate to that film because there isn't anything in it that scared or worries them.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:46 PM ^
The prince trying to marry the younger powerless princess (forgot her name) I consider to be the evil character. He did try to kill her.
February 13th, 2015 at 10:38 PM ^
he is just a "bad guy" not some scary monster and he "tries to kill her" passively by not helping her, not by actually committing a violent murder. Yeah, at the very end he does actually try to kill Elsa, but you have to have SOME conflict or the movie would suck.
As a father of a young daughter I agree with the above poster these things DO make a difference.
February 14th, 2015 at 9:05 AM ^
My mom points out that the bad prince is a more likely to occur bad guy than your typical witch, sea witch or monster.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:54 PM ^
I think Tom Wilson was by far the best actor in Back to the Future 2 and 3.
Also, he has hame some cool videos since then.
February 14th, 2015 at 9:00 AM ^
Biff Tannen is one of the best movie characters of all time. If you don't agree you can make like a tree and get out of here.
February 15th, 2015 at 6:17 PM ^
Frozen is an abomination and should be killed with fire
February 13th, 2015 at 4:36 PM ^
I thought titanic was a boring and dumb movie. I'd imagine that's not an unpopular view on this blog, but a lot of people seemed to like that movie
February 13th, 2015 at 5:18 PM ^
The crappy previews alone were enough for me. Never saw the movie, never will.
February 13th, 2015 at 5:37 PM ^
So no, you're not alone. And I really don't understand that. You get the feeling that some people don't even watch the movie before criticizing it.
EDIT: lol at the guy above me
February 19th, 2015 at 12:51 PM ^
I thought titanic was a boring and dumb movie.
Says you and every other person who wasn't a teenage girl in 1997.
February 13th, 2015 at 4:36 PM ^
While easy on the eyes, Demi Moore nearly ruined "A Few Good Men"
February 14th, 2015 at 7:01 PM ^
But she wasn't easy on the eyes in that particular movie.
