Lance Taylor and Tyler Johns are back with another episode of The Next Reel, and this time they are taking on one of the best debates in movie fandom: what movies did critics get completely wrong?
Before getting to their Top 5 lists of movies critics hated but they personally love, Lance and Tyler recap everything they watched recently, including classic films, thrillers, horror, comedies, reboots, franchise movies, box office surprises, and nostalgic favorites.
This episode covers everything from classic Clint Eastwood crime thrillers like Dirty Harry and Magnum Force, to the tense Nicole Kidman thriller Dead Calm, the disappointing return of Scary Movie 6, the messy Masters of the Universe reboot, and a theatrical rewatch of The Backrooms.
Lance and Tyler also break down the massive box office success of Obsession, a low-budget film that exploded into a nearly $200 million phenomenon, and compare its word-of-mouth success to some of the biggest movie surprises of all time.
Then, the guys dive into the main event: a spoiler-safe countdown of their favorite movies that received harsh reviews, low critic scores, or poor Rotten Tomatoes ratings — but still deserve love from real movie fans. Are critics too harsh on certain genres? Do comedy, action, nostalgia, and crowd-pleasing blockbusters get unfairly dismissed? And are there some so-called “bad movies” that are actually great?
If you love movie reviews, film podcasts, Rotten Tomatoes debates, underrated movies, cult classics, rewatchable films, nostalgic favorites, bad reviews vs audience scores, and passionate arguments about the movies critics got wrong, this episode of The Next Reel is for you.
Drop your favorite movie that critics hated but you still love in the comments. Did Rotten Tomatoes get it wrong? Are critics out of touch? Or are some movies just more fun than their reviews suggest?
