Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

The Cell 45% critic / 57% audience

The aesthetic alone is worth the watch.

Just looked and the original Fast and Furious is the lowest rated somehow? That movie rules

The Punisher (2004)

Underworld is 31%, but 79% audience score? So apparently quite a few people like it, could've fooled me. I might edit this if I find something else.

Hidalgo. It's nothing special but it's a fun story. I don't know how I ended up with the DVD but for a few years it was my go to sick day movie. Its probably been over a decade since I last saw it, it might not hold up.

Jurassic World Dominion. The original Jurassic Park is probably my favorite movie of all time, and I know that people hate the remakes. But they were so much fun to me. I love dinosaurs. Sue me.

2004's Van Helsing stands at 24%. It is silly but it is fun.

Chandi Chok to China (2009) - it's obviously a spoof movie (like Austin Powers), but despite going in knowing nothing of Bollywood I loved it. I'm pretty sure we rented the DVD from Netflix back in the day. It's rated 42%/31%

Mio in the Land of Faraway (1987) - very young Christian Bale in a fantasy world with Christopher Lee as the bad guy. Simultaneously recorded in both Russian and English. It's rated --%/55%

I'm sure there are others (In the Name of the King and Equilibrium have both already been mentioned), but these two are the ones that I decided to search for. I know the second one is older, but color me inspired by the mention of the 1984 Dune (love Patrick Stewart, but I don't feel like he was cast right in that movie).
