Poorly received/Critically panned films you like?

More than well, they did amazing cash wise for crappy little cheapo action films. The company made Cyborg, Bloodsport and Kickboxer all together for under $5 million, they ended up taking something like $100 million wordwide if I remember rightly.

Video cash was immense, I remember they were in the top 10 rentals for years.

They are what they are, no one can say a bad word about them in my eyes, they piss all over the waste of cash shit we get now like Speed Racetr of the sodding Davinchifinci Code and bollocks like that.

Luc Besson's Angel-A. It's got 43% rotten on RT and 6.9 on IMDb, pfft.

I say the director approved European cut of Babylon A.D. a few months back and quite liked it. An entertaining enough sci-fi action film. Hardly a poor man's Children of Men.

The post-apocalyptic Russian locales reminded me of games like Stalker: Shadow of Chernobyl and Metro 2033.

I also really like the Charlie Sheen flick No Man's Land, about an undercover going after a high-profile car-thief ring.

I 100% agree with this one. It's like a version of The Fast and the Furious with some actual substance. I genuinely sympathised with Sheen's character, but was glad that D.B. Sweeney's character followed through on his duty as policeman in the end.

Really like all of them all 4 stars from me, maybe none are "Perfect" but damn good in their own ways with some cracking bits and pieces in them.

OK. Here's one I liked I know you all hate.

The Postman (Costner).

Yes, it's long, yes it's sentimental patriotism, but it's well-made and fundamentally a good story well told.

Masters Of The Universe comes to mind. Its limited but the score is great, and Frank Langella elevates the film tremendously. And it's a lot better then Star Wars!

[bradavon]

And it's a lot better then Star Wars!

I've always liked the He-Man movie but are you for real? WTF!

[Killer Meteor]

And it's a lot better then Star Wars!

I've always liked the He-Man movie but are you for real? WTF!

Well, yeah. Its called an opinion.

[bradavon]

Obviously. I've never read someone preferred Masters of the Universe to Star Wars before. Why?

[romerojpg]

Becuase Star Wars is a bore.

[bradavon]

Star Wars or Star Wars: A New Hope?

[romerojpg]

The entire subject, I get so sick of hearing everyone say how perfect they are.

[bradavon]

Who says they're perfect? They are perfect forms of movie entertainment though.

[romerojpg]

Who says they're perfect?

Are you serious?

Everyone from the people who give them 5 stars and say BEST FILM OF ALL TIME to the ones who pretty much whip out their cocks daily and toss off over Jabba

[bradavon]

Saying a "film is the best ever" isn't saying you think it's perfect but otherwise point taken.

[luckystars]

I've never wanked over Jabba but will give it a try



Star Wars is a 10/10 film though - the others are not.
