Everyone either picking films I haven't seen or pretty good picks from movies I actually remember seeing and I'm out here wondering whether Fievel Goes West would count. Don't watch many movies anymore, so my movie pool is mostly from memory and I couldn't tell you what's actually bad.
The Last Dragon
Jiu-Jitsu
The Matador. Its a personal favorite, but not a great movie by any rate. I love how Pierce Brosnan seems to want to break away from the 007 mold and play the exact opposite: a sleazy assassin with no class and no friends and no love.
It's cheesy af but I think it's brilliant
I think you're confusing not being popular with not being good. The Matador was well regarded by both critics and audiences.
I hadn't looked at ratings tbf but you have a point.
It's at least a movie I never have read anybody recommend, so I don't think it's particularly popular
It's almost 20 years old at this point so that's part of it. But I do remember it was pretty under the radar when it came out. Nobody I know has seen it unless I recommended it. It's not the greatest reviewed movie, but reception was largely positive.
Cave girl. Seen it on usa's up all night with Gilbert Godfrey.
Disney's robin hood and robin hood men in tights were big during my childhood so I like them for the nostalgia.
Kingsmen movies are fun
The quick and the dead with decaprio is very bad but I enjoy it.
Harold and Kumar go to White Castle
The bee movie. Patrick Warburton doesn't have a single bad line.
Honestly a lot of old DreamWorks cartoons are like that - really dumb, but funny
Weekend at Bernie's for sure, in fact, I think it's a quasi-perfect movie for what it is.
Street Fighter.
It's rubbish. Terrible script. Half the cast can't act.
But then Raul Julia basically saves the whole thing by turning it into a pantomime. He knows he's in a shit movie. He's literally dying. But he's going to have fun and so are you.
To be fair Kylie was pretty damn hot.
It's pat
For repeated viewings? Probably just the old standby A Knight's Tale. Not sure how "bad" it really is though, just a very specific type of fluff elevated by some charming performances.
For bad movies I watched once but enjoyed? Standards go WAY down. As a teenager, I saw Weekend at Bernie's 2 with my mom in the theater and enjoyed it. Around 2015-2016 I also watched the first three installments in the "Mythica" microbudget epic fantasy series (words that generally don't go together well, LOL) and found the earnestness (and the mercifully quick exit of creepo Kevin Sorbo in each one) made them oddly watchable, but they are by no means good and I never bothered with tracking down the last three.
There are two: Zardoz and Youngblood
The greasy strangler.
White Chicks
In the army now
