For me the first thing that comes to mind is Tales from Earthsea. I don't think it's excellent or anything and has plenty of problems but people act like it killed their dog. While it has its problems that have been covered extensively, I think it has a beautiful atmosphere and art.

IMO it would have been better received if it wasn't advertised as an Earthsea adaptation and was just its own thing.

Rat Race is one of the funniest movies of all time, I didn't care what the ratings say.

Oh wow, it got bad ratings? 100% agree with you. Love that movie.

That's one of those movies that's better than it has any right to be. Remake "It's a mad mad mad mad world", and now we have Smashmouth? Nah.

Same with "Hot Tub Time Machine". Should be awful, is actually good.

Sometimes the reasons critics think movies are bad are actually features, not bugs.
