Terrible but eminently watchable films

Robin Williams put in a great performance as the lead and the film was entertaining itself. Unfortunately the script and ending was pretty weak. Still enjoyed it though.

Didnt go through the whole thread but if anyone mentions Starship Troopers I will actually hunt you down and do physical harm.

Lucky for you lot I just read the first page.

It's been mentioned. Go nuts.

Starship Troopers.

Con Air and The Rock are amazing action films. Anyone who thinks they're shit is dumb. Don't make 'em like they did in the 90's anymore.

EDIT: I'd say a better example is Face/Off, that was both terrible and great.

Just really really shit. One of the worst films ever made.

There is a brilliant brilliant documentary about how to not get ahead in Hollywood about the making of the boondock saints that is actually better than the movies. It’s called overnight and if you love the movies you should really see it

Cheers, I'll check that out

Commando, Demolition Man, Deep Blue Sea, Congo. Also Syfy channel movies like Lavalantula and Sharknado I find feckin hilarious and I second the shout on all of the Leprechaun movies.

Streets of Fire

 

[Rado_N]

I'll add mine to the list. John Wick, brilliant movie, all that death over a dog!

What the feck, nothing about John Wick is terrible, it’s just a great movie.

Total Recall(both versions)
Anything with Adam Sandler

 

[Skåre Willoch]

Harold & Kumar 1 and 2.

 

[Red Stone]

Anything with Adam Sandler

Except Uncut Gems, which is the exact opposite of this thread. I appreciate it for what it is and it's a good movie, but I found it hard to watch because it stressed me out.

Total Recall(both versions)

Verhoeven's Total Recall is a classic science fiction film. Nothing terrible about it.
The other one is pants though.

 

[FrankDrebin]

Water World, Spawn, Deep Rising, Under Siege, Under Siege 2.

 

[Vidyoyo]

Rocky IV is a whole bunch of 80s cliches but it's very fun to watch.

 

[GueRed]

I loved Van Damme movies growing up.

And dumb action movies like Commando. Terrible but good shit

 

[Jagga7]

Starship Troopers first film that comes to mind.

 

[DavelinaJolie]

Hackers

 

[FrankDrebin]

Starship Troopers is another classic.

 

[BusbyMalone]

Water World, Spawn, Deep Rising, Under Siege, Under Siege 2.

Yeah, two good (bad) ones. Spawn is just...marvelous. It's genuinely entertaining, and I always thought Waterworld got a lot of undeserved hate.

 

[BusbyMalone]

The first XXX film. It is bad but very entertaining.

 

[Spoony]

Starship Troopers first film that comes to mind.

That was hardly a terrible film.

Rocky 4 is my guilty pleasure. I love it.

 

[Red the Bear]

Blended, its utter shite but I enjoyed it
Adam Sandler by all means seems to be a very nice guy and also extremely talented (if he wants to be of course) so I'm not trying to hate on him but he sure does make a ton of shite.

The Room but you need to watch it with a enthusiastic audience. Its a bad but boring film without one.

 

[Withnail]

Crank and Crank 2

 

[InfiniteBoredom]

Zoolander

 

[Beans]

Big Trouble in Little China is the best bad film.

 

[Withnail]

Big Trouble in Little China is the best bad film.

Can it even be classed as a bad film?

 

[lsd]

I'm not sure I totally understand how a film can be terrible but watchable.

I'm tempted to say The Meg a film I've watched and quite liked but everyone else I know doesn't.

Other than that of I think a film is terrible ie F&F movies or Superhero films there's nothing really watchable there for me.

The movies are bad, the writing is bad and/or the acting is poor but it's so bad that it becomes funny/entertaining when often it's not meant to be funny. You're often laughing at ridiculous lines or developments in the plot.

I remember when I was young my friend excitedly telling me about the evil dead movies. Then watching them a being appalled at enjoying watching them ….despite how utterly shit they were

 

[calodo2003]

Absolutely excellent shout.

It's that good at being terrible.

I guess it depends on how you define it. It's a hot mess.

I love the Evil Dead movies. They do not belong in this thread at all. The first two were both successful at the box office and with critics.

One of the all time great masterpieces of film-making
