Agreed. It barely even held my attention. Top 100 all time...what a joke.

Anything Woody Allen has ever done.
Almost every year he pumps out some crappy movie that critics say they love bc it makes them look smart.
He had one halfway good movie 4,000 years ago and that gave him a lifetime critics pass.
And typically if you do something good, but then people realize that you're a horrible person, opinions change. Not with this guy, he's a horrible person but everybody just doesn't seem to care.

Yeah, Woody Allen is I think by a long shot the most overrated film maker of all time. He’s gotten 16 nominations for Best Original Screenplay, which is ten more nominations than the next closest. And I can watch Roman Polanski movies and enjoy them, but Woody Allen’s are just pretentious garbage.

I knew it was bad, I didn't know it was that bad. Wow.
I honestly dont get it. He puts out a movie every single year, has done so forever now. I refuse to watch his movies now but just based off sheer volume, your movies cant have that much quality to them. And again, he's a horrible person.

I didn’t like The Witch. I get why people like it but it was just way too slow for me.
I wasn’t a big fan of District 9. Didn’t dislike it really just thought it was meh.
There will be blood was boring and had a weak ending.

I'd forgotten about that movie, I remember leaving the theater very disappointed.
Another one for me is The Avengers. I thought I was into superhero movies but I absolutely hated The Avengers and haven't been able to sit through a superhero movie since (unless you include GotG).

Midnight Cowboy
Close Encounters Of The Third Kind
Maybe it is a case of “Seinfeld is unfunny” for both but I saw them in the 90s and I didn’t get the appeal for either. Maybe they just didn’t age well.
And before someone says “influence”, there are a lot of influential films from the 30s and 40s I like and they still hold up on their own separate from “Everyone and their mother copied off of this.”

Have you seen Match Point? It's excellent.

Hugo. 94% meter. That movie was beyond boring.

Boyhood. Did you hear it took 12 years to make?

I second the general opinion of Woody Allen in this thread. Also I forgot to mention The Blair Witch Project. First movie I've ever seen critics rave over which looked like the cinematography was done with a Go-Pro attached to a quad-wheeler lit up with flashlights.

Pretty much every Oscar movie from the last 3 years.

You have seen this before, many times as a matter of fact. Remember Full House? Game of Thrones? The Cosby Show? This had a budget of 4 million dollars, which is tears in a bucket for Hollywood. Just so long as someone doesn’t die or go to prison, then you’re good.
I don’t think it’s ambitious at all and is a pretentious film with a gimmick. No one would give a frick about this movie if it were made conventionally. People would still love Lord of the Rings if they instead shot it all in 6 years instead of simultaneously. That is an ambitious project.
