every dog has its day and every movie
has its fans welcome to watchmojo.com
and today we’re counting down our picks
for the top 10 bad movies with good IMDB
ratings
before we begin we publish new content
every day so be sure to subscribe to our
Channel and ring the bell to get
notified about our latest videos for
this list we’re looking at movies that
were poorly received by critics but
which have nonetheless scored reasonably
high scores on IMDB where the rankings
are based on user ratings and reviews
also make sure to pay close attention
for clues throughout the video to see if
you can guess our number 1 before the
big reveal number 10 Suicide Squad that
me tells me a whole lot of people are
about to die for many viewers Suicide
Squad was everything it needed to be
mindless fun featuring familiar faces in
comic book roles plenty of action and a
healthy dose of wisecracks and so it got
6 point 1 on IMDB critics however were
merciless and it’s hard to fault them
the pacing was awful the marketing
misleading the character development was
paper-thin and the antagonists sorely
disappointing for fans of the comic book
team this felt like a shadow of the
property’s incredible potential a prison
setting may have worked for the
Shawshank Redemption but as this and our
number-one entry proof it’s far from a
sure thing
well we some kind of Suicide Squad
number 9 sweet November life will never
be better more sweeter than this death
makes people do crazy things
keep that in mind it’ll come up again
this 2001 romantic drama has a lot of
curb appeal with Charlize Theron and
Keanu Reeves in the starring roles from
the way Reeves his character Nelson
holds their and Sarah in the poster
you’d be forgiven for thinking this is
going to be your run-of-the-mill romance
but trust us what you get is far more
problematic it’s long enough to be
meaningful and short enough to stay out
of trouble critics tore the film apart
deriving both its saccharine sweetness
and its basic concept a terminally ill
cancer patient staying with different
men for one month at a time to heal
their emotional
shoes it’s got a 6.7 on IMDb but a
measly 15% on Rotten Tomatoes number 8
National Lampoon’s Van Wilder Wow he’s
here who’s running hell honestly any
number of gross out sex comedies could
have taken this spot but we chose Van
Wilder for two reasons first it has a
noticeably large gap between critical
reviews and viewer reviews and second we
kind of remember having a soft spot for
it too
sporting a paltry 19% on Rotten Tomatoes
yet a decent 6.4 on IMDB Van Wilder won
over audiences with the charming
performance of its irresistible lead
Ryan Reynolds who plays a university
student – in love with campus life –
want to graduate gross-out gags abound
and the humor is painfully adolescent
but hey sometimes it’s all a person
wants number seven Warcraft we’re not
responsible for destroying your world
the video game curse it’s real and this
film is arguably the strongest piece of
evidence evidence plus action why does
that ring a bell
anyways Warcraft had a solid budget a
talented and proven director a built-in
audience and a solid cast and it still
couldn’t break the curse it did fine at
the box office internationally but
critics were not impressed filmmaker
Duncan Jones did his best to mind the
mythology but it all felt too
heavy-handed Warcraft works as a game
but on the big screen it plays out as
cheesy clearly fans felt differently
while critics gave it an arty score of
28 percent it rocks a solid 6.9 on IMDB
it sounds like a trap it is not number 6
a dogs purpose UK boy we honestly
thought that this bomb was sunk the
moment footage went viral of a stunt dog
in distress the movie certainly sank
like a stone with critics who called it
both overly sweet and emotionally
manipulative for viewers however the
heartwarming story of the relationship
between men and man’s best friend is
seemingly an insurmountable force
capable of weathering any amount of bad
press oh boy I never knew there might be
such a thing as a boy while critical
reception landed it with 34 percent on
Rotten Tomatoes
Tale of canine reincarnation scores big
on IMDB where user ratings gave it a 7
on 10 number 5 The Punisher take a man’s
family away from him and you will
unleash his wrath upon the world that’s
a lesson that applies to more than one
film on her list if there’s one thing
that this 2004 film got right it was
casting Thomas Jean as The Punisher
apparently for many viewers this was
enough to earn the film a 6.5 on IMDB if
we’re being honest though pretty much
every other aspect of this film felt
mishandled from the supporting cast to
John Travolta’s role as the villainous
howard st. Tomatoes we can understand
the cult following but given the film’s
overall quality we’re not surprised that
it made little impact at the box office
go with God God’s gonna sit this one out
number 4 chasing Mavericks don’t just do
it buddy I’ve been surfing that Break
for 20 years honestly we’d never even
heard of this movie before doing the
research but Gerard Butler in the
leading role sure caught our attention
man has that guy been in a lot of movies
anyway chasing Mavericks only scored a
32% on the tomato meter based on the
reviews of critics but on IMDB it boasts
a score of 7.2 with a whopping 28
thousand four hundred user ratings draw
a line between yourself in that dish
that mushroom rock over there well the
critics called it underwhelming and
found fault with the script
I am TV reviewers wax poetic about the
film’s many virtues maybe it’s a surfing
thing you need to be in the know to
appreciate this story or maybe viewers
and critics just appreciate different
things that boy’s gonna surf that wave
anyway you know that right number three
August Rush what is it with bad movies
having a month in the title that’s not a
clue we’re honestly just curious if
you’ve got a soft spot for extra sweet
sentimental tales about the power of
music you might love this film Freddie
Highmore does a solid job as Evan a
talented orphan who lives and breathes
music and dreams of finding his parents
where is
with Kari Russell Jonathan Rhys Meyers
Robin Williams and Terrence Howard
rounding out the cast hi Moore is in
good company unfortunately a cast this
talented deserved a better film it has
7.5 on IMDB but we tend to agree with
critics and the 37 percent on Rotten
Tomatoes so only some of us can hear
some listening number 2 the longest ride
I wanted to be like everyone else when I
was little the reason I like you is cuz
you’re nothing like everyone else
nothing divides critics and cinema goers
quite like a Nicholas Sparks movie if
we’re being honest the longest ride is
far less emotionally manipulative than
some other adaptations of his work but
that doesn’t necessarily make it a good
film regardless we get how it scored 7.1
on IMDB the longest ride tells a pair of
love stories separated by generations
the leading actors Scott Eastwood Edie
Britt Robertson are undeniably easy on
the eyes and the presence of
award-winning actor Alan Alda is
certainly welcome but as our top entry
proves having an award winner in a
prominent role doesn’t guarantee a
quality film the 30% Rotten Tomatoes
score feels a little more objective you
tell me not to let you win so I’m going
with Plan B distraction
number one law-abiding citizen in my
experience Nick lessons not learned in
blood or soon forgotten so did you get
it a prison setting a father driven over
the edge by the death of his family
embarks on a one-man mission of
vengeance in this action thriller the
omnipresent Gerard Butler’s Clyde
Shelton squares off against the
award-winning Jamie Foxx as attorney
Nick rice evidence plays a key role in
this cat-and-mouse game but
unfortunately not enough logic you think
doing what you’re doing is gonna change
anything
the idea of quiet continuing his mission
of vigilante justice from behind bars
might make for a jaw-dropping reveal but
it’s also completely absurd fans give it
a 7.4 on IMDB but critics did not like
the film and that 26 percent score on
Rotten Tomatoes feels pretty well
deserved taking my deal do you agree
