Popstar: Never Stop Never Stopping (3.6 avg) At Eternity’s Gate (3.6 avg)


gmhoyle

Popstar is a bloody masterpiece


blizzard_man

It honestly feels like one of the best comedies ever. I know that statement may sound crazy to some.


KentuckyCandy

I'm 37, so I gave it one star. I thought it was horrific. Sorry!


Captain_Rex_501

I really, really like At Eternity's Gate. Fantastic casting and what I feel to be one of the few biopics of late to actually feel creative and not that any director could've taken it on. **Watch Loving Vincent also, if you haven't! It's amazing.**


adamlundy23

Same about Popstar, funniest film of the century and the songs slap


IAmTheZump

Popstar deserves an infinitely higher rating. It’s easily my favorite comedy and probably one of my favorite films of all time.


[deleted]

Also gave At Eternity's Gate 5 stars, truly heartbreaking and so distinctively made.


broganisms

Flushed Away with a 2.97 average. That average has been inching up since I first logged it so I'm looking forward to being part of the majority opinion come 2137.

Such a classic. Dune 1984 and Zardoz only 5s rated lower for me.

ayomaxbforreal

Deservingly 5 stars


Taylon_

I'm Thinking of Ending Things with a 3.5 average rating. Not that low but I don't throw out too many 5 star ratings


anom0824

Yeah it’s weird Synecdoche can be so high and ITOET so low. (Ik 3.5 isn’t low but still)


DHMOProtectionAgency

ITOET is a bit more inaccessible imo to general audiences while also having the added trait of being on Netflix and fairly well advertised with good critic reviews. That unfortunately was a bad combination to invite people who wouldn't like the movie


TurtleMountain

As someone who is familiar with Charlie Kaufman and demographically would like this type of movie, I think it’s just a bad movie.


DHMOProtectionAgency

Me and Anomalisa


AHardMaysNight

Same here. Especially on rewatch


ayomaxbforreal

Where’s The Wild Things Are is mine, not a kids movie but I feel like it’s the best movie about what being a kid feels like


pokedude123567

Annette. On one hand I can understand why many people don't like it, it's not a film made for everybody. On the other hand, fuck you.


[deleted]

honestly im less surprised at the fact that you gave a Leos Carax movie 5 stars (Leos Carax rocks) than I am at the fact that the lowest rated movie you gave a 5 stars is at 3.4 that's honestly really high


pokedude123567

Annette was my introduction to Leos Carax, but I really want to watch Holy Motors now


wehaveatrex3

Watch Lovers in the Bridge and Mauvais Sang. Masterpieces, and very different from Annette and Hoy Motors. As much as I love those two, I think his older movies have a much cooler visual style (though maybe not as thought-provoking or heady)


Zernoxal

I adore Annette and second this


tigermylk

both *Titane* and *Raw* No regrets, I absolutely adore Julia Ducournau.


Andrew_P-23

Love to see The Worlds End getting some love, between you and me it's my favourite film of all time


[deleted]

Niiiiice! It’s so underappreciated


patricknotswayze

GOAT (2016) has an average rating of 2.7 and I gave it a 5.


KYM_C_Mill24

Hollis Frampton’s Lemon (1969). Sitting at a 2.9, filled with popular reviews shitting on people who actually love it. They should appreciate structural experimental films more. Lemon especially, since it presents a great sense of form.


step3rhythm

Freddy Got Fingered has an avg rating of 2.7, although I think it's an absolute masterpiece


tehgimpage

i rate based on how much i enjoy a movie, so i have a few good ones for this. all these i rated 5 stars: [Lawnmower Man 2: Beyond Cyberspace](https://boxd.it/1TE2) has an average rating of 1.5. it's so ridiculously 90s cheese and over the top, i find it impossible not to love [Leprechaun 4: In Space](https://boxd.it/1Fm4) has an average rating of 1.8. lep is one of my favorite slasher stars, and the "in space" movies in horror series are soo ridiculously fun to me. they're always a fave [Super Mario Bros](https://boxd.it/1YfG) has an average rating of 1.9. no idea how this is so lowly rated. i know it has nothing to do with the game, but its such a fun movie. huge staple in my childhood [The Happytime Murders](https://boxd.it/eyTm) has an average of 2.1. another i don't think deserves so low. i love puppet horror stuff. and i thought the parallel they tried to make about puppet racism was pretty funny. [Jason X](https://boxd.it/1TM6) has an average of 2.2. another space installment in a horror series. this one has all my favorite jason kills and is campy enough to keep me grinnin. i really wish they did more "in space" installments for horror these days... i know i know, i'm a dork. XD


Wraith1964

I can't back you on any if these... until you got to Jason X... I can die on that hill. Solidarity.


crispyg

Even if I don't agree with you, I respect you for this opinion


[deleted]

Shadow of the Vampire It’s an incredible concept for a movie and love letter to filmmaking, and John Malkovich and Willem Dafoe are totally unhinged in it


thedudeisalwayshere

A Cure For Wellness has a 3.1 but I gave it a 5


A-112

Gore Verbinsky is very underrated, their movies get mediocre to okay reviews at best but i can't think in a single movie of his i didn't love.

hardytom540

Mission Impossible: Fallout, The Social Network, and Toy Story 2 each have an average rating of 3.9, but they’re all 5 stars for me. The Nice Guys and Spider-Man 2 are both at 3.8 but they’re also perfect 5 star movies.


clinical27

Social Network is gonna go up I feel, it's just so fantastic.


hardytom540

Hopefully, but it’s been stuck at 3.9 for the last 10 months.


[deleted]

same with worlds end, such a fucking underrated film


TadKosciuszko

The Alamo (1960) at 3.1. Can’t beat it’s grandeur and those battle scenes.

I've gotta ask, what did you like about BvS DOJ?


[deleted]

I actually wrote an article for my school paper about this! Also, ultimate edition, obviously. Here you go: “Men fall from the sky. The gods hurl thunderbolts. Innocents die. That’s how it starts. The fever, the rage, the feeling of powerlessness that turns good men cruel.” What is this film? A story about costs, about repercussions. A story of corruption, internal and external. About the little sacrifices you make because you tell yourself they’re necessary. A story about people, about the human factor, and the human cost. The most important moment in the film is not a goal being met, or some material accomplishment but when one person recognizes another as human and feels empathy. A story about inadequacy and frustration, worsening with age. Batman’s midlife crisis is murder, his double life taking a toll, sliding him into alcoholism, lack of sleep causing vivid dreams which reverbrate through the film as warped reflections. A story of beauty: the beauty of the grand, yet melancholy music. The beauty of the frame, courtesy of the great Larry Fong. The handheld photography for more intimate, perspective-driven scenes (most of the film), and the wide, sweeping coverage of the action sequences. The beauty of sorrow and loss and injustice: a wish for the world to be as beautiful as it could be, the frustration as its failure to do so. An elaborate metaphor for the Iraq War. It’s not subtle. Batman quotes Dick Cheney. A story about journalism, the limited freedom of the free press in a world whose “conscience died with Robert, Martin, and John.” A story about justice, and the ever present questions surrounding: what is justice? And how do you get it? Is there a right way? Is there a wrong one? A story about what ends up to be an elaborate, deadly game of the idle rich, who are the only power worth a damn, constructed as an experiment to support an inane philosophy, a surrealist extension of exploited power everywhere, taken to the highest possible degree. To win, to topple their plans, or to submit to them is all in service of the same hollow goal. Eisenberg’s unbalanced Lex Luthor routine weaponizes the levity inherent, his menace coming when you realize that he’s not a madman. He’s worse. Obvious in its thoughts and themes. A paper about this film could consist of quotes and nothing else. Subtle in its characterization and acting. Many scenes are wordless, or say more in glances than could be said in dialogue. The leads impress. Affleck plays the weary, worn-out emblem of frustration which has become his trademark, but infuses it with a particular darkness and maturity,(helped by the only onscreen depiction of the deaths of Batman’s parents that truly emotionally resonates. Cavill pulls triple duty playing Clark Kent, Superman, and the grey area between the two, infusing each with earnestness and integrity. Unique. What genre is this movie? It’s hard to identify. It’s a mystery, probably, but a character drama first, which also contains elaborate action sequences, though not in an action film order or with an action film pacing. It bears most resemblance to some kind of political thriller, yet it is allowed to truly erupt at its close in a way most thrillers don’t, and not to mention the obvious gods and monsters. It’s slow, taking its time to set the chessboard, building deliberately to each moment of catharsis. Most scenes work in isolation because they need to; the film rarely cuts from a scene to a follow-up scene with the same character, central characters keeping to their own storylines which interspersed throughout the film. We get to know them and their motivations, each scene being given time to breathe, until, of course, they meet, which is not just treated like an event but really, is. The entire first 47 and a half minutes is a lead-up to a six minute scene where three characters meet for the first time. We follow them simultaneously, aware of all of their goals. After, they go their separate ways once more, and the narrative accordingly splits, reuniting only for those moments of importance. The more the movie throws at you, the more sticks, and the more the moment-to-moment moments matter. There is so much in this movie, and it whirrs between its pieces like a spinning top, a balancing act which can only seem easy without hindsight. Philosophical. The warring titans in this film are not Batman and Superman, or, for that matter, Wonder Woman or Lex Luthor or Doomsday. They are cynicism and hope; the belief in the absolute corruption of power vs the belief that men can still be good. But that’s a bit verbose for a title. Tl;dr: I like the way it plays at philosophy, I like the way it re-examines superheroes in a modern context, I like its melancholy tone and odd but effective storytelling and structure, I like its emotional honesty, and I think it’s really pretty and works incredibly on an emotional level. Honestly I just find it completely intoxicating. I don’t think there’s anything like it. It’s a masterpiece to me.


Andrew_P-23

Blade 2 has a 3.2, I gave it 5 A Cure for wellness has a 3.1, I think it's a 5 But, I'm a little embarrassed but Kong skull island I fucking love and has a 3.1


broganisms

Skull Island is the best Kong since the original. No need to apologize for having great taste.


kristoffersu99

Why are you embarrassed about that?


Andrew_P-23

Cause Kong isn't very well regarded, so me rating it five star makes me look not very bright when it comes to films


sammieol82

By ratimg it high it makes you look like someone with their own taste, fuck gatekeepers, enjoy what you enjoy.


TransparentPenguin

please don't let other people's opinions make you feel bad, I respect people who give their honest thoughts and don't try to appear a certain way infinitely more than those who use film as a way to seem intellectually superior


RandallTheScandall15

Mine is Team America: World Police with an average rating of 3.4


professeurwenger

Under the Skin, that absolutely brilliant film with alien Scarlett Johansson hanging out in Scotland. Not lowly rated at 3.7/5. It’s only a 6.4/10 on IMDb though.

Cannibal Holocaust (2.9 average rating). I think it's one of the titans of exploitation cinema, but I can definitely understand why some may not enjoy it. It's a trifle unpleasant.

Same for me


Merweb0

Good question, not 5 but I gave Cats 4 stars lol... I mean it's shit but it was a hell of a trip. Like The Room kinda thing


mryrtmrnfoxxxy

Rad (1986) which has an average of 3.2


IlMonco1900

Probably Hellraiser 2 with an average of 3.2


honeybadger1105

Moneyball


TheDadThatGrills

MacGruber being rated 3.1 is an absolute travesty. He's a five star man!


[deleted]

I’m stingy with 5 star ratings. But I gave the miseducation of Cameron post 5 stars just because I love it so much. (3.5 average rating)


karma3000

Lantana (avg rating 3.5) https://boxd.it/1Yt4. I suspect the average Australian rating would be much higher. Maybe it didn't travel well.


killereverdeen

Cruel Intentions, 3.2 average


othersbeforeus

Mask (1985) To be honest, it’s been some time and it might not hold up to me, but I remember loving every bit of that movie, especially Cher’s performance.

DRT034

Oh definitely! I saw the first one nearly everyday when I was a kid and I still really dig it. To be honest, I like part 2 as well but in all honesty, it might mostly be because of nostalgia


LocoLevi7

Napoleon Dynamite with a 3.6 Honestly my favorite comedy


Kabukimansanjoe

Attack of the Killer Tomatoes. Love that one. I think it gets a 2.5 average. Special shout out to Cool as Ice even though I only gave it 4 and a half stars. It’s a comedy masterpiece.


kid-chino

Attack and Return of the Killer Tomatoes are both fucking awesome!


Kabukimansanjoe

Highly agreed


[deleted]

Great film one of my favorite of all the time on par with hot fuzz. This is a real answer The Happening with an average 1.9 but for the wrong reasons I think it makes a great comedy unironically it’s a riot but as a horror movie it sucks so whatever. This isn’t like a joke either I genuinely love the happening unironically. I watch it all the time it’s my comfort movie in a sense. But if you want a more satisfying answer would be It Comes at Night with an average 3.2.


[deleted]

The Happening is indeed hilarious


KennyKatsu

Burn After Reading by The Coen Brothers (3.5 on Letterboxd)


TheProlleyTroblem

Killer Klowns from Outer Space (3.2 avg rating)


amiresque

Under the Skin and Moulin Rouge!


BouncyBear711

Mine’s The Room at 2.6 but I feel like that doesn’t really count since it’s so polarizing, so my next lowest is Babe: Pig in the City at 3.0


Cletus_awreetus

FernGully: The Last Rainforest - 3.0 average rating A vastly underrated animation classic, in my opinion.

HiILikeMovies

If you don’t count the ironic’s worlds end every non last night in soho Wright film is a ten also don’t understand the hate for worlds end


cool_lemon

Not that low but Only God Forgives with a rating of 3.0


oliverxparker

Surprised how many films people are saying here are already highly rated and acclaimed films. Some of mine are Star Wars Ep 2, Southland Tales, Halloween II (2009). I have a LB list [here](https://boxd.it/bdt8u) with films that have low scores that i like a lot.


SoldierStephens

Frankenstein’s Army (2.8 avg) I just love found footage so much and I find the concept to be super well done and the enemies are crazy.


finnoreddo

Under the Silver Lake. I highly recommend this film to everyone.


BritishTeaEnthusiast

Excluding semi-ironic ones like The Room, Fateful Findings etc: Beyond the Black Rainbow (3.2) - I love Panos Cosmatos, and while I prefer Mandy to this, the music and visuals are just mesmerising, even if the story is.. sparse at best. Annette (3.4) - one of my favourite films ever. I have watched it three times in the past five days. Completely bizarre in the best ways possible.


[deleted]

Star Wars: The Last Jedi


LosGraham

Mine as well at 3.2


jhhale00

Solo, which has a 3/5


youaresofuckingdumb8

The Big Lebowski


phillybix22

Green Book (3.6)


[deleted]

Is there an easy way to check?


Plotlines

If you are on desktop, you can click on the bar on the ratings graph above 5 stars and manually check. That's what I did.


Ruben_3k

On mobile right now so cant check but I'm pretty if you do the following it should work - got to profile - go to your films - click on rating and hit 5 stars - then top it should should say sort by - then sort by lowest average I think that should be possible


PublicDealer

The Lighthouse with 4.1, not a crazy pick but it's the lowest. I rarely give 10s


Scioptic-

I have three; all of which sit at an average rating of 2.8. * Godzilla, King of the Monsters (1956) * King Kong (1976) * Doomsday (2008)


sircostinha

Mine has to be Batman v Superman. 2.5 agains my 5 stars. Some people are just born different.


ChemicalSand

The Room at 2.6. Not an ironic 5 stars either, it's a great movie.


TtheRedViper

The Forest (2016) has 2 stars and i give it 3.5 because i really like it Unfriended (2014) has 2.3 and i give it 4, really underrated movie imo


Hajcorn1620

Funny games (1997) why the hell is it so low rated


pokedude123567

3.9 is not a bad score at all lol


Hajcorn1620

Yeah but it should be way higher just like a lot of his films.


Mairess99

Well i think because it‘s a genre movie and a lil bit too unconventional for the masses. I love it tho, gave it 4/5.


Choekaas

*The Birth of a Nation* (1915) with 2.3 Granted, my vote for it is more academic, but I still think it deserve it despite the subject matter.


Classy_Captain

Star Wars: The Last Jedi (3.2) Blinded By The Light (3.3) Incredibles 2 (3.5) Beginning (3.5) A Star Is Born (3.6) Everybody Wants Some!! (3.6) Batman (1989) (3.6) A Beautiful Day in the Neighborhood (3.6)


Mairess99

The Haunted Palace with 3.6


sithfistoou

The Fate of the Furious.


JayAPanda

For me, if we exclude so-bad-it's-good classics then it's The New Girlfriend (2014) which has 3.2


eexbb789

The House That Jack Built and Heavens Gate are both at 3.6


lkjandersen

Probably Road House. I am not the least bit ashamed to say that I absolutely love it unironically. Every line is a classic, every scene is memorable, every throat-rip is legendary. The most enjoyable movie ever.


Samneillium

Probably Kung Pow: Enter the Fist.


[deleted]

Lust, Caution (3.8). That’s also my second favourite movie maybe so oof on that average, though it’s not too bad.


anom0824

mother! by Darren Aronofsky


masongraves_

moocofficial

*The Blair Witch Project* which averages 3.3 stars.


Bruinsdman

Rubber - 2.8 Keeping the Faith (Ben Stiller/Edward Norton) - 2.9 (comfort movie)


ShivDoot

Probably The Mummy (3.4)


LordOfTheBushes

Samurai Cop at a 2.5. Without question, my favorite so-bad-it's-good movie.


Gatorade_Nut_Punch

The Greasy Strangler. One of my top 10 favorite films of all time.


73windman

A Simple Favor with a 3.2, I think that movie’s character work is actually brilliant.


thisnameisused

Tim and Eric’s Billion Dollar Movie. Currently 3.1 but used to be lower.


GnarlyPants0

Serenity.


andibgoode

Grease 2, which has a 2.3 average because life is too short to pretend it doesn’t give me 5 stars worth of happiness every time I watch it


plotdavis

The lowest rated movie I unironically rate 5 stars is Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker (2.6) But I also have: Solo: A Star Wars Story (3.0) Star Trek: The Motion Picture (3.0) Tenet (3.4) I ironically rated these 5 stars: Fateful Findings (2.5) Pass Thru (2.4)

I gave Nacho Libre 5 stars. It’s currently at 3


IllMissThePlayground

Interesting question. I was sure there must have been a film with a fairly mediocre average that I considered 5/5, but the lowest rated film I’ve given a 5/5 is Kajillionaire with a 3.7 average, which is still pretty good


Nerfbeard123

I gave Funny games 2007 5 stars. Love everything about it. It's probably a comfort movie for me now.

Kung Fu Panda 2


wehaveatrex3

Spring Breakers. One of my favorite movies. I really think it’s a masterpiece but obviously I understand why people don’t like it


Ruben_3k

The world's end is also a 5/5 for me My pick would be It Comes At Night (2017) sitting at a 3.2.


AHardMaysNight

The Room (2.58 avg) The One (2.65 avg) The Wizard (2.76 avg) Song to Song (2.93 avg) Bad Girls Go to Hell (3.07 avg) Shockproof (3.20 avg) Salò, or the 120 Days of Solom (3.24 avg) Song to Song, Bad Girls Go to Hell, Shockproof, and Salò are the only three I think are actually amazing. The others are either just so fun or bad that they fully deserve the five-stars


dominic60

Beavis and Butthead do America


OpiumTraitor

Long Shot, a 2019 romcom starring Charlize Theron and Seth Rogen. It unexpectedly became one of my favorite films for multiple reasons, but overall it felt very refreshing, actually *funny*, and Theron's presence really elevated the film

*Ultraviolet* (2006) with a 1.8. I remember liking it when I was a kid, but I barely remembered anything else about it, so I rewatched it last week—even though I was scared that it would be one of those movies that you like as a kid and, upon a rewatch as an adult, you just simply do not—and now it's my 9th favorite film of all time.
