Films you like but everyone else hates

[CornishCorpse]

My response is that the films I listed are unpopular amongest my group of friends not in the mainstream, I mean offline I have friends who hate GAR but in the outisde world he is both loved and hated. I guess I misintrepted the question, strike two

I'm amazed people are putting up Day of the Dead and Army of Darkness because they are all highly rated movies. Jersey Girl No Retreat No Surrender Beverly Hills Cop 3 Can't think of any more. Oh yeah, the War of the Worlds remake was pretty damn good.

I can tell ya, man....from myself and the people I know, "First Blood" is by far the best. I have yet to meet anyone who has said that the two sequels are better than the original Well, I like the sequels, so there, now you have.

[bassman]

We haven't met, so you don't count.

[Craig]

We haven't met, so you don't count. Fair play, but you do know that someone who prefers the sequels exists now.

nah mate go to a non GAR forum, you'll have a hard time convincing people day of the dead is decent

One that comes immediately to mind is "Striking Distance" starring Bruce Willis. Even Bruce Willis apologized for the movie, saying "it sucked". Personally, I like it a lot. It was set in Pittsburgh, which gives the film a different set of locales to see rather than the typical either New York or LA. There is a fantastic car chase scene in the beginning, possibly one of the best car chase scenes ever, including a truck of "Iron City Beer" spilling over. The "cops on the river" is not used often in movies, so that was a plus. Yes, there are some obvious plot problems, but overall, I think it is a great action movie, and shows off the beauty of Pittsburgh very well.
