big trouble in little china is a superb addition to this list. [/ QUOTE ] God I hate threads like this because of posts like this. Here's some more good additions: Raiders of the Lost Ark The Goonies Gremlins Ghostbusters Beverly Hills Cop The Fugitive Speed Die Hard Enter the Dragon Oh wait, sorry I was mistaken. Those are all just good entertaining, well-made popcorn movies like Big Trouble in Little China. Sheesh. Swede was right. Best suggestion so far is Gymkata. Bloodsport also acceptable.

I realize that approximately .002% of humanity will agree with me on this one, but I feel this way about Gladiator. I definitely enjoyed it and would watch again, but something about the whole enterprise feels very off to me upon repeat viewings. And yes, obviously the filmmaking is skilled and well-executed, which I'm sure is not the case in Gymkata. There is still some sense in which Gladiator seems to me to be a bad movie, but I enjoy it anyway.

Re: Great/terrible movies
Before you get trashed by the legions of Gladiator fans here put me in the .002%. It is a good movie that I liked better the first time when it was called Braveheart. No way is it close to best picture material. Anyhow, doesn't really fit the Great/terrible criteria.

[/ QUOTE ] mmm, I have an urge to argue that some of those in your list aren't that great, but your point is A++ and should have popped up in this thread a long time ago
