Every movie fan knows what it feels like to waste time and money on an awful film, but there is such a thing as being too cautious. While review aggregators like Rotten Tomatoes have done their part to help spare us from the worst offenders, they do, on occasion, send an innocent movie to the cinematic gallows. With that in mind, we picked out some of our favorites from cinema past that get a bad rap. Don’t let their “rotten” reputations fool you — these bad movies are better than the all-important critics’ consensus suggests. If you are looking for genuinely great films, check out our picks for the best of Netflix, Hulu, HBO, or Amazon.
(Critical opinions pulled from Rotten Tomatoes’ Critics Consensus.)
Update: Added The Mummy (not that one) and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift
