The 2003 Daredevil film is a particular favorite, and everyone I know hates it!

I love the new Jurassic World movies, although that might not be as largely hated than some of the others on here. I'm a dino/monster movie nut and honestly, can't get enough of them.

Venom 2018. From the critics, it's the worst thing that came out this year, but I love it to death.

I love the original Blade Runner with Harrison Ford. One night in college I chose that movie for movie night in my dorm, and absolutely everyone hated it. It's very moody and dark, which I love but is sometimes unappreciated.

Clash of the Titans. Not the new one, but the older version with Harry Hamlin. It's so campy and fun! I've seen it a bunch of times.

Evolution and Strictly Ballroom. Every time I put them on get eye rolls from the family. :roll: I also really like Lake Placid, Deep Blue Sea, and Dante's Peak. Fun, cheesy sci-fi - you can't go wrong!

Not necessarily love, but Batman and Robin, and the Ghostbusters remake.

I thought this was brilliant. Probably one of my faves from 2018, no idea why it was rated so low. It was hilarious!

Down Periscope was always a favorite, but the ratings were really bad on it.
