Movies you like that others don't.

Same thing as the gaming thread on the topic.
This one's easy for me, so I'll start.

The new Star Wars movies. Solo I didn't like that much, but all the others I thought were pretty good for the most part.

It's one of the most amazing movies of all time.

Weird Al and Mel Brooks are mere spoof dilettantes compared to the awesome might of the Zuckers.

Speed Racer (2008)

 

   Even most critics panned it, but that's just because they are deluded.

As a youngster I was impressed about its tasteful rendition of its Japanese source,

among other things; back in the day most western transpositions of Asian art were 

superfluous and hackneyed (probably still are, I don't know).

 

   Nowadays I am positive about the script, discussions about unethical and predatory 

corporations and the way they handle competition, are scant at best in popular media.

I'd argue it's on par with The Matrix (1998).

Blithe Spirit (2021)

 

I went through the reviews after watching it, and failed to understand why people didn't like it. I really enjoyed the entire movie.

Bright (Netflix)

Aside from the racism being a bit blatant, I really enjoyed it as a Shadowrun'esque look at how society might be like if magic was real. But it seems most people just agree it's a bad movie.
