lol. Kangaroo Jack.

Generally I am inline with critics, however, there are exceptions - movies that suck that just strike a chord with you. For me this list includes:

- King Arthur
- Sommersby
- Joe vs. the Volcano
- Bounce

I'm also a sucker for any sports related movie so I like a lot of real crap in that genre, such as:
- Major League II
- For the Love of the Game
- Mr. Baseball (with Magnum!)
- The Replacements

I'm sure there's others I'm forgetting.

I read the book and loved it. Surprisingly I enjoyed the film as well.

Well, a local film critic (and I use that term loosely) slammed Say Anything with John Cusack when it came out. (1989 I think).

Still one of my all-time favourite movies.

I really liked Death To Smoochy and I remember Ebert really hating it.

Pretty much every movie I have ever seen and liked the critics hate- in other words anything entertaining. I am just a fan of movies in general, they aren't all gonna be Million Dollar Bay and Sideways (which were great too). I hate crtics because they hardly ever enjoy anything but serious dramas, therefore I ignore their reviews when choosing a movie and just see whatever I am in the mood for seeing.

I liked, while the critics hated:

-Starship Troopers. Yeah it was campy. It was supposed to be.
-Girl Next Door. Elisha Cuthbert. Need I say more?
-Undercover Brother. Solid!!! [fist punch]
-Three Amigos. A classic.

House on Haunted Hill (the recent remake).

Freddy Got Fingered

I agree that they were both kind of corny, but there is just some kind of sick thing I liked about them. Hard to explain.

Iam also a fan a fan of all the Godzilla movies as well.
