h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

Tomb Raider. I had been led to believe it was atrocious.

Ok so it wasn't brilliant, but it wasn't as bad as I expected it to be.

Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone. I wasn't looking forward to its release (I was working in an electronics department at the time)... but I was pleasantly surprised! The child acting was actually... believable (with the exception of Malfoy)!

bringing down the house
the one with queen latifa and steve martin

i laght a couple of times but i though it was going to be so bad i would need to bite off my own leg to get through it.

28 Days, I was told this was a no go film. Its no master piece but a damn good Brit flick and well worth watching in the dark

28 Days or 28 Days Later? Two /completely/ different films, and the extent of Britain in 28 Days was a single British actor.

On a slightly different note, have you ever sat through a film that was so bad that you *had* to watch it to the end?
Or is that just me?

2weeks notice , I heard about this film and it was all bad ,when I came back from spain this was the inflight movie ,,, well how wrong they where , its worth the hour and a bit to watch it 7/10

28 Days later then !

And no its not just you, I've sat through more films than I can remember just in vain hope there must be something worthwhile in it !

Bruce Almighty.

Equilibrium got trashed by the critics, but I thought it was a very compelling science fiction film, about a future where emotion was outlawed.

I might rent that next week then, by the look of the cover I thought it was a Matrix rip off.

Chicago

I thought that this movie was going to be really lame. All that dancing and singing just didn't seem like it was going to appeal to me at all, but when I watched it I was hooked for the whole time, because it has an brilliant storyline and some of the musical numbers are stunning.

Chicago's a long-running Broadway hit! Of course it has a good plot!

well I know that now, but at the time I didn't realize that it was a Broadway show... *shrugs*

I had to watch to the end of Sling Blade, even though it was so painfully slow, long and so ridiculously boring, as I wanted to see whether the end was worth watching through it (it wasn't). Even now, I struggle to remember what the hell it was about, as it was such a pointless movie. I'll never get that 2 hours back of my life.

Charlie's Angels 2

I honestly wasn't expecting it to be any good, even though I enjoyed the first one, but I weas wrong. Of course if you didn't like the first, you will hate the sequel.

Could have done with some slightly less OTT stunt sequences though. Neo and Morpheus would have been proud to do some of the things in that film.
