 Re: Universally loved films that you hate? I saw them once, they just did nothing for me, I can say positive things about them, but they'd be a chore for me to watch them through again.

Re: Universally loved films that you hate? Raging Bull--acting was good but damn did I hate it. Ordinary People was better.
Casino Royale--overlong and I just hated it.
The Conversation--it is like staring at a clock for two hours; very precise but horribly boring.
Men in Black--never found it funny.
Avatar--might not have universal love.
Finding Nemo--sorry, I hate Dory.
The Bourne films--I hate them all and I hate shaky cam and Bourne never does anything particularly heroic or altruistic; only self-serving things. Have not saw Legacy.
The Wedding Singer--it is the worst of the so-called "good" Sandler films.

Re: Universally loved films that you hate? "Its only really Universally loved on KJ. Never really hear much praise for it outside of here (even though it was critically lauded)"
I use to make fun of people being in love with film, saying it was the best ever.
The only time I have ever heard anyone talk about that film is on this board.

Re: Universally loved films that you hate? Based on the imdb top 250 there were some I thought were just OK, nothing great, but nothing I hated.

Re: Universally loved films that you hate? I don't hate it, but it's the season of Love Actually. And I just don't get the what the fuck is with people loving the shit out of that movie. Especially during Christmas time.

Especially during Christmas time. Well the Christmas theme is played up in the movie, with the weeks countdown and the thought, if you can't say it at Christmas time,.....
