Let’s have the flip side to this thread.
I like Robin Hood Prince of Thieves.
There, I said it.
I recently saw Stealth, and it wasn’t half bad. Well, maybe half. But I didn’t find it to be the horrendous stinker that folks had told me it was.
My husband is very fond of Howard the Duck and Hudson Hawk. He is weird in other ways, too, but I love him.
eXistenZ.
Written like this: one word. Small “e”. Capital ‘X’…capital ‘Z’. It’s new. It’s from Antenna Research.
Unbreakable. I’ve never met anyone who likes it. I was spellbound by it, maybe I just caught it on a day where I wanted to sink into a movie like this. If I watched it on a sugar-rush-I-want-an-action-movie day, I probably would have hated it too. The only problem I have with this movie is the same problem I had with Sixth Sense… It feels like the pilot for a TV show. I also loved Signs, too. Hated the Village, though, before anyone thinks I AM M.Night Shyamalan.

Gee, I like almost all the movies that y’all have mentioned. Am I easy to please or what?
Your husband has my stamp of approval with Howard the Duck. That’s a GREAT movie!!!
If he likes Mean Guns, we may have issues. I lurve me that movie. It’s so bad, it’s great.
I quite like a lot of those movies and many of them are very popular including Batman Returns, Dances with Wolves(Imdb rating of 7.8/10),Out of Africa. You are including Oscar winners for Best Picture as Movies everyone else hates? his makes no sense.
I like Hudson Hawk, Adventures of Buckaroo Banzai, Starship Troopers, Clay Pigeons, The 13th Floor, Mystery Men, Payback, and Last Man Standing, none of which are terribly popular outside of the geekiest geek circles.
My husband and I like lots of movies that nobody else likes.
I don’t understand the hate for Toys. It’s so gorgeously strange.
Hudson Hawk is a riot. I think 90% of the reason that people hate it is that they are expecting one thing (Bruce Willis action movie) and get something completely . . . undescribable.
We’ve roped a few people into watching Our Man Flint and In Like Flint, Sixties super-spy parodies. They feature James Coburn as a secret agent—just like Hudson Hawk, come to think of it! In Hudson Hawk, he strangles people bare-handed in Rome. In In Like Flint, he speaks the dolphin language. Or maybe the dolphin thing was in Our Man Flint . . . Either way, what’s not to love? Yet, of all the unfortunates who have been subjected to the Flint movies, only my mom found them funny. (The apple, she does not fall far from the tree.)
We also liked Signs, although when I try to defend it, I suddenly feel like lissener, so I usually just break off in mid-sentence and say, “nevermindletsagreetodisagree.”
My answer to the OP.
I liked Hudson Hawk. I like Bruse Willis. I was always kind of surprised that people who like Bruce do not like this movie. It is typical Bruce Willis. I think he co-wrote it or produced it or something. It was his baby and he tried for years to get it on screen.
I also liked Last Action Hero with Arnie. I thought this was a typical Arnie movie with the twist of Arnie sending himself up. Again I was surprised that Arnie fans did not like this movie.
My two choices here probably make my movie going look low brow, but I like many kinds of movies. My alltime favourite movies are Casablanca, Cyrano de Bergerac, Wild Strawberries and Cinema Paradiso.
2001 A Space Odysey
I love it. Everyone else I talk to says it is too slow.
Red Dawn
Yep, crappy movie, crappy acting, but I like it anyway.
M by Fritz Lang This is a classic, but I don’t know anyone else that enjoys it.
I could come up with a few more, but too early in the morning for me to be thinking.

I don’t guess a lot of people hate The Hudsucker Proxy, but most consider it way down the list of Coen Bros. movies. But that’s my favorite!
I also thought **The Last Action Hero ** was a lot of fun, but it seems to have been universally panned.
There are a lot of people who really like Starship Troopers (the book) and a lot who like **Starship Troopers ** (the movie), but usually not both. I loved both.
I have thoroughly enjoyed every Shamalan (I know I spelled that wrong) movie. In fact I find most critiques of his movies to be beyond petty. They’re not flawless by any means, but when poeple start whining about his twists being foreshadowed (where if they weren’t foreshadowed he’d be clambasted for pulling them out of his ass) and picking apart little issues I just tune those people out.
I just say this again recently… I still like it. It’s a parody of movie culture and violence. I think part of it borders on genius… When a cartoon cat detective shows up and no one bats an eye, that’s fucking awesome. Its funny from a culture stand point because its a genre that doesn’t really exist anymore.
It’s not my favorite of theirs, but it’s one of theirs. I also really liked their version of Ladykillers.
I love Howard the Duck! I don’t think it counts anyway because it’s a cult classic.
Now, The Substitute, I have not gotten one other person to admit liking. Don’t ask me why I like it, I just do. 
Sister Act, II. Yes, the second one.
I have all ways liked Real Men with James Belusi and John Ritter. It is such a sublime parody of the spy guy type macho thing that I think many miss it. As far as I can tell, I may be the only one to have ever seen it.
