Movies we're supposed to say are good

'The Green Mile' - in my opinion it was kind of like a dumber version of Shawshank Redemption

'The Post' - I'll admit I never saw it!

'12 Years a Slave'

'The God Father' - what the actual fcuk is all the fuss over

I'm not really one for the marvel films anyway, but Black Panther was actually a black hole into which any semblance of craic vanished.

Made the mistake of seeing it in the cinema and I think you could have gathered 20 mins solid footage of me sighing in anguish alone.

Star wars = christmas, for people who were kids in the 80s

I was a kid in the 1980s and never saw Star Wars.

When I went to college in the 1990s there was lots of guys wearing t-shirts about Yoda, Dart Vader and such and such.

These nerds all believed Star Wars to be a seminal event in movie history.

At the same time George Lucas was creating his prequel series.

To drum up the hype they re-released the original series in theatres so I got to watch it for the first time in the then Virgin Cinema in Dublin. I was shocked at how completely sh1t it was.

Back when I was a kid in the 1980s Anything Goes used to show the old Buster Crabbe black and white Flash Gordon serials.

Not only is Star Wars nonsense, it completely ripped off Flash Gordon.

Into the Wild.

Never before has a film crawled so far up in its own hole that the camera angle was actually from the viewpoint of the producers ass the entire time.

Sure was - love that film.

The Big Lebowski really did not do it for me - but I may revisit.

I heard something like that, but I didn't like that one.

I'll be controversial and add some old classics to the list too.

All About Eve
Gaslighting

May have been something in their day, might still make pleasant enough viewing, but they're by no means great anymore.

Boyhood. We watch a child grow up on screen. No plot, no character development. 2 hours and 45 minutes of... nothing.

Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind - Nonsense.

The Tree of Life - Long and boring nonsense.

Oh God yes to both of those!

I'll add Boyhood to that.
So what if it was filmed over 10 years. It still played out like cheap, made for tv melodrama drivel.

Mean Streets. Not terrible but overrated imo, and has a sh1t ending.

Citizen Kane is great.

There are lots of worthy type movies out there that leave me cold, but not saying more than that.
