What are the low-rated movies you enjoyed the most or think should be rated much higher?

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.
Super Mario Bros Movie.

I am a so-bad-it-is-good movie enjoyer. If you want to view some genuinely entertaining schlock, I'd highly recommend:
- Miami Connection
- Samurai Cop
- Killing: American Style
- Space Mutiny
- Money Plane
- Paradise Motel
- I am Here, Now (any Neil Breen tbh)
- Timecop
Went to a showing of Cade: The Tortured Crossing and it changed my life.

Idiocracy. Has stood the test of time surprisingly well for a movie containing so many fart and sex jokes.
wrote last edited by [email protected]My wife and teenage step son had never seen this before, so we all tried watching it last year. Every single one of us fell asleep. It wasn't nearly as funny and entertaining as I remembered.
But that won't stop me from saying "IT'S GOT WHAT PLANTS CRAVE!" at least once a month.

I wouldn't say it was prophetic, because most of it was already there in 2000, but less virulent. But yeah, Mike Judge had to push against the industry to get it out, so at least some corpos were aware of what he was saying too. That is why it wasn't higher, because Fox tried to neglect-kill it.
Fox. Imagine that.

Those just reminded me of another one I like and has a sub 6 score: Beverly Hills Ninja
The great white ninja!

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
I need to get around to reading the comic, I love this movie and I love its premise even more.

I watched the entire “Kissing Booth” trilogy with a friend recently. They’re cute teen rom-coms and I enjoyed all of the movies and characters. The writing is corny, but it seemed to intentionally have a kind of theater club vibe to me. I kept thinking the cast must have had a lot of fun.
Should it be rated higher? No idea. I think ratings are stupid tbh.

I'm not gonna defend them as super great movies but I do feel they are underrated by a point. If Bruno dropped before the world saw Borat I think it would have been better recieved.

Now the RT score though, critics got it so SO wrong.

Darkness Falls 5.0 on imdb. A ok horror film. I like it because it's pretty decently thought out. The minor characters do start to listen to the guy in the know once he is shown to know what's going on.

Yes! My family could not get into it, I thought it was a riot

Robocop 2014
I think its extremely underrated.
I thoroughly enjoyed it, because out of all the sci-fi movies I've seen in the last two decades, this one has a very high likely chance of playing out exactly as indicated in the film.
We will blur the line between man and machine, and eventually have a identity crisis.
We will very likely see autonomous drone platoons being coordinated by a few or single human operator.
Those drones will likely be deployed in a military fashion first with push-back on deploying on home soil as a police force.
Until they will inevitably be deployed and used against civilians.
Also kudo's to the scene where he is stripped down to the bare parts, and the entire theater went quiet. There's a level of existential dread, when your 'being' is laid bare that the reality is... you... everything about you.... is just a small clump of grey matter.

Freddy Got Fingered! The joke is on the studio and audience, and most did not want to laugh along...

The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen.
Not to shame your taste or anything, but I've loudly chuckled when I've read this one. That's the only movie I've walked out of the theater from. Not joking. IMHO it is _over_rated, even a 0/10 is too high of a rating for that clusterfuck.
-
Only 1 of 2 movies I have ever walked out of in the theatres. It’s so bad.
