How Bad a Movie Can Possibly be?

in CineTV2 years ago (edited)

Firstly, before I call a movie a bad one, I must confess every movie has its specific audience. Regardless of IMDb ratings, no movie remains unseen, and to some extent, even a movie getting 2/10 ratings is enjoyed by many, if not you and me.

Secondly, I am inspired by this contest, and it’s over already. But I liked the idea and didn’t want to miss the opportunity to express my opinion. Also, I usually don’t skip any contest arranged by communities as long as the idea seems lucrative to me, regardless of the rewards. But to skip the odds, I decided to talk about the idea of ‘worst movies’ rather than specifying one and criticising them for being ‘low category.’

So, the worst movie I have seen— well, I don’t typically watch any movie with low ratings (although I am always eager to read content with low ratings here on Hive :p). This has some perks, skipping the shitty story and not wasting my time on something that I might regret later, thanks to IMDb and people leaving comments below the movies— they have helped me utilise my time on something great. That being said, if I call a movie not-so-great, then perhaps it was my choice to watch it despite ratings or the time is not favourable, meaning I am suffering from the availability of good movies to watch or my downloaded and stored movies have already been watched several times and currently, not a good idea to watch them again.

And trust me, when you decide to watch a low-rated movie, if you can set your mindset accordingly, you can enjoy it too. Simply laugh at those imperfections and the moments will be worthwhile. I have done it several times and enjoyed laughing my ass off at the VFX where a blast seems to be a close shot of a match-stick burning fast or a car accident similar to a toy car being kicked by an angry baby. Probably they have low budgets or the director is trying out different options before he finally quits or puts an end to the artists’ career.

However, how a movie will be rated depends on multiple factors and branding is one of those. For the same reason, you will find DC or Marvel movies getting fantastic reviews no matter how boring (!) they are. Fans will defend it by saying “you don’t have the intelligence to understand the twist” — the hell with twists, if I have to do the calculation like Einstein to understand a movie, then I better be watching porn than unearthing the sophistication of a movie. Easy plot, hard-working artists, and a decent ending— it doesn’t keep you waiting for an entire year to watch the second episode.

But that’s not the point— sometimes watching movies with low ratings pays off. The chance of discovering gems is futile but if you do, then it could be the greatest discovery of the entire year. And if you dare to invest your time outside of mainstream Hollywood action thrillers, you can enjoy the complexities of life through Korean dramas. Fingers crossed, you might lose interest in watching Hollywood violence and noisy action scenes again. But you have to dare to watch ‘bad’ or ‘worst’ movies first. A glimpse of the plot summary will help you decide in this regard but don’t take it for granted. Sometimes the most slow-paced movies entail the deadliest subtle details of our life— you need to take the first step to land on the greater philosophy those movies entail.
