15 People Share the Movie Nobody Will Ever Convince Them is Good
Movies don’t have to win everyone over, but some seem to inspire the same reaction every time they’re mentioned. You’ll see people calling them masterpieces, recommending them to friends, or defending every criticism they get. Then there’s the other side, the viewers who watched the exact same movie and came away wondering what everyone else saw. Some of these films were huge box office hits, others became cult favorites, but for plenty of people, no amount of praise is enough to change their minds.
These are the movies nobody will ever convince them are good.
Disney’s Live-Action Remakes
A lot of people said they’ve given up on Disney’s live-action remakes altogether. Even when the visuals are impressive, many feel they rarely capture the charm that made the animated versions so memorable.
Wicked (2024)
One of the biggest movie musicals in recent years also turned out to be one of the most divisive. Some viewers admitted they sat through the entire film waiting for it to click, but it never did.
Fifty Shades of Grey (2015)
This adaptation still receives criticism for everything from its dialogue to its romance. Several people felt the movie inherited the same problems they saw in the bestselling novel.
Pacific Rim: Uprising (2018)
The original built a loyal fanbase with giant robots and monster battles, but the sequel left many fans disappointed. For some, it lost the personality that made the first movie stand out.
Avatar Franchise
Despite becoming one of the highest-grossing franchises ever, not everyone buys into the excitement. Some viewers think the visuals are incredible, but the stories never live up to them.
Ghostbusters (2016)
Many commenters made it clear their issue wasn’t the cast. They simply felt the reboot wasn’t funny enough and failed to recapture what they loved about the earlier films.
Terrifier Series
Even horror fans were split on this one. While the movies have a passionate following, some people said they see nothing beyond increasingly graphic violence.
Sucker Punch (2011)
The visuals earned plenty of praise, but many viewers felt style completely overshadowed the story. It’s still one of Zack Snyder’s most polarizing movies.
The Fast and the Furious Franchise
What started as a street racing series eventually became something much bigger. Not everyone enjoyed that evolution, with some saying the movies became too over-the-top to take seriously.
“Wuthering Heights” (2026)
Emily Brontë’s classic has been adapted many times, but this version failed to win over some viewers. They felt it never captured the emotional intensity of the original novel.
The Star Wars Sequel Trilogy
Few modern blockbusters divide fans quite like these three films. Some viewers still argue the trilogy never found a consistent direction from beginning to end.
Twilight (2008)
Years after dominating pop culture, Twilight continues to split audiences. While millions embraced the romance, others never understood why it became such a phenomenon.
Wonder Woman (2017)
The movie was praised by critics and audiences, but not everyone agreed. Some viewers felt the screenplay and final act kept it from living up to its reputation.
Mortal Kombat: Annihilation (1997)
Video game adaptations have improved over the years, but this sequel is still remembered for all the wrong reasons. Its effects, dialogue, and story continue to draw criticism.
Highlander II: The Quickening (1991)
The original Highlander became a cult classic, but its sequel is remembered for very different reasons. Confusing story choices and major changes to the franchise’s mythology have made it a frequent pick on lists of the worst sequels ever made.
