      My favorite lowest rated movie is Steel, with a rating of like 3 stars on IMDB. It's got some incredibly stupid, but quotable lines.

      "The alloy of those weapons is not magnetic."

      "Well dip me in shit and roll me in breadcrumbs!"

      "An ounce of pretention is worth a pound of manure."

      Many alloys and metals in general are not magnetic, though, so I hope that line is stupid for the context it exists in.

        It's about a tire that blows things up with It's mind

        I hated the movie at first but it grew on me by the end of it. It might be pointless and wacky but it's well done for what it is.

          This movie's main issue is that given the choice, I'd still rather watch the 1987 release. Like most remakes, it didn't exceed its predecessor enough to justify its own existence.

          Gimme that 2012 Dredd though, that was sick.

          DAMN that movie kicked ass. Definitely out did the Stalone ones and deserves a sequel or two for sure.

              I'm asking because an IMDb rating cutoff above 6.5+-5 seems to generally do a good job making sure I don't regret watching something. But what am I missing among the sub-6? I know they exist, but it is hard to select among seas of...bad movies.

                    That had a bad rating? I thought it was a decent movie, decent acting, decent story, decent special effects, like most of Cruise's movies.

                    Hate the person love the actor, he had a long string of good movies

                        I wanted to recommend The Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai Across the 8th Dimension, but it's sitting at 6.2 on IMDB, which is higher than I expected. I'm still going to, because it's great. Jeff Goldblum plays the most normal person in the film.

                            I really liked the 2022 sci-fi movie 'Deus', 4.4/10 on IMDB.

                              This is definitely one of those movies you either hate or love. And I was just the right age /immaturity to love it. Showed it to some 12 year old cousins and only like 2 of 4 liked it.

                                Wouldn't say I love it but I really liked Not Another Teen Movie when I first saw it. Not sure how it holds up but the parody it makes of those high school romcoms was good.

                                In a similar vein, Scary Movie 2 and 3 were also really funny to me as a kid.

                                  The brother’s storyline is ridiculous and ruins the movie.

                                    The David lynch version of Dune. I find it much more enjoyable than the recent version(s). The art direction and casting are amazing.

                                    The only clunky part is in the TV cut where they use storyboards and voiceovers to give some back history about the Mentats. Pretty sure this was not in the theatrical release though it’s been a while since I’ve rewatched it. Oh and the human close ups of riding the worms is showing its age in the special effects department.

                                      I also found it entertaining. It's so bad that it is fun.

                                          IDK about "rated higher" but I love Jet Li's The One

                                          There's exactly 127 universes in the multiverse. Why? Never discussed. And if one version of you kills another, every other version gets that much stronger. So Jet Li plays both the hero and the villain as well as an assortment of the villain's victims. Jason Statham is in it too, as the hotheaded junior partner multiverse cop out to bring the villain down.

                                          Weird guns! Weird tech! A prison universe! Super powered martial arts! A climactic fight in a foundry where you can tell the hero from the villain by the color of their shirt! Man I love this movie!

                                          It's when they go through the pictures of Jet Li's victims that gets me every time. It's just him with different wigs. The one with dreadlocks is hilarious.

                                          I genuinely love this movie. Very entertaining. Soundtrack isn't half bad either.
