_Saving Private Ryan_ _Titanic_ _The Sixth Sense_ or for that matter anything by M. Shyamalan. Generally I dislike the work of any number of popular directors, generally on the grounds that they suck the life out of a movie (Ron Howard) or are predictable if technically proficient hacks (Spielberg, Lucas). The problem is they have gotten worse with each movie. _Duel_, _Night Shift_ and _THX1138_ or _American Graffiti_ were OK movies. Ever since then… I seem to be in the minority among my friends. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/movies-you-hate-but-everyone-else-seems-to-love/357564)._
