I liked Twelve Monkeys - seen it multiple times :-D Guess we all have our opinions. I'm guessing most people HAVE heard of Twelve Monkeys - I'm shocked you haven't.
Ok so movies that were a waste to me -
- Napolean Dynomite - I didn't get it and wouldn't finish it! But to be honest I watched it a second time with a friend when we were in a giggly mood and I did find it sort of funny that time. However, I will never agree that it is hilarious like my friends tell me it is.
- Skeleton Key - I reviewed this one on here already but basically I thought it was not thrilling at all and a total waste of time.
- Lifetime - While I've seen some lifetime movies that drew me in, I've seen quite a few that I couldn't get past 30 mins before flipping the channel.
- Waiting - People tell me that you have to be a waiter to understand this and find it funny - I disagree. This movie was DUMB and I usually laugh at a lot of DUMB movies so for people to tell me that if I was a waitress I'd laugh, I can't believe that. Besides, my husband has never worked in an office, yet he finds "Office Space" to be hilarious. A good movie should be funny to everyone, not just those who can relate.
I'm not so picky about movies overall and there are not many that I won't finish. A lot of movies get 3 stars from me but it's very rare I'd go as far as 1 star or saying "don't watch this". I can usually find some good in every film I watch.
BTW You'll probably be surprised to see that Twelve Monkey's has the following stats on IMDB:
