Movies You Didn't Like But Everyone Else Did

The one movie I never got was Fargo I knew so many people who loved it so I went out to the local BB store rented the VHS of the movie and was bored through out the entire time the damn movie was on.

#1 on that list for me was "A Simple Plan". We went with a three or four other couples and when we came out of the theater, we all said, "We would have got up and walked out, but we didn't want to leave the group." Most depressing film I ever sat through. Close runner up is a tie for "40-Year Old Virgin" and "Forgetting Sarah Marshall". The unfunniest comedies ever devised. Add anything made by Woody Allen since "What's Up Tiger Lilly?" Pretentious whiny dialog that just grates.
Note to Ly: Easy Rider made more sense back when it first came out. I'm not sure I could watch it now, but thought it was the BOMB back in 1969. Mostly because I wanted to be one of them right up until the ending.

The most recent..
Tropic Thunder
Horrible!! I try reading the 4 & 5 star reviews and can't understand what they are talking about! Everyone keeps talking about it being a 'comedy' and all the 'humor' in it..I don't remember laughing once..I actually got pissed ..and embarrassed that I had someone else watching this BORING movie with me. I'm someone that laughs at anything..even if no one else is laughing..so I'm not really understanding the reviews for this movie.
