A Person expressed their dislike for most Marvel movies, citing the use of “stupid Joss Whedon-Esque semi-ironic garbage dialogue” as the main reason. 

They felt that this gives all the characters the same flavor and that the movies were created with an algorithm to do well in focus groups rather than being a piece of art or a quality cinematic experience. 

They also mentioned that they prefer gritty and darker movies like The Dark Knight but enjoyed Guardians of the Galaxy because it was meant to be silly. They particularly like Dave Bautista's character.

3. The Fast and the Furious Franchise

According to one individual, The Fast and Furious franchise is criticized for its questionable script quality. The plot becomes increasingly ridiculous and retconned to increase stakes. The timeline is also confusing due to the inclusion of Tokyo Drift, with older actors playing characters who are supposed to be much younger.

4. Shape of Water (2017)

One Redditor found Shape of Water lacking originality, citing the familiar trope of a beautiful woman loving a misunderstood ugly beast. They still needed to finish the movie and were uninterested in finding the ending.

5. La La Land (2016)

They feel it was a celebration of style over the film. Furthermore, they would rather dislike a movie for a good reason than feel utterly unaffected by it.

6. Love Actually (2003)
