Movies You Didn't Expect to Like

09-27-2004, 09:01 AM

It happens sometimes. You've got nothing better to do and a movie comes on TV you were either avoiding or weren't really interested in seeing, but you decide to watch it and end up actually liking it. Maybe it's not the best movie you've seen or even a good movie, but you enjoy it anyway. It could be a guilty pleasure, or maybe a movie that is actually good that you didn't expect to be good.

Here are some of mine:
The Bourne Identity
Freaky Friday
The Lion King 1 1/2
Center Stage (very guilty pleasure)
Monkeybone
Envy
The Punisher
Ella Enchanted
100 Girls
Girl Next Door

I, Robot

I wasn't expecting much, but I found myself to be somewhat entertained. More or less.

"Mean Girls" was one for me. I thought it was gonna be more dirty than what the movie actually was and it was funny in some parts.

I went to see "The Terminal" the other day with really low expectations and was quite pleasantly surprised.

Love Actually.

No, seriously.
