The Lord of the Rings - The Fellowship of the Ring
The Revenant
The Shape of Water
Three critically acclaimed films I really struggled with - possibly just down to subject matter.

Get Out.
Awful film but 98% on Rotten Tomatoes. Why?1 -
Shawshank Redemption is a good film but personally felt it wasnt as good as everyone made out.8

I really liked Get Out, but quite frankly I tend to just take films at face value, and the sub text is usually lost on me.
I also liked Fight Club, but really didn't get as excited as plenty of other people did0 -
Trainspotting.
With the Shape of Water, a lot of people say that it's the worst film in memory to win Best Film.
Plus it ripped of the Tom Hanks film Splash:

Titanic......a classic Hollywood example of how to fuck up a wonderful subject matter, they turned it into a unbelievable fairy story......actually walked out in disgust shortly before the end.3 -

Jordan Peele's follow-up, Us, is probably the worst film I've ever seen.Charltonparklane said:

Lord Of The Rings - Quite ironic it's about 4 odd hours long as I switched it off after about 2 minutes0

I had to sit through the entire thing in the cinema - felt like it lasted for days.i_b_b_o_r_g said:Lord Of The Rings - Quite ironic it's about 4 odd hours long as I switched it off after about 2 minutes1 -
Though I enjoyed The Shape of Water it certainly wasn't worth the best picture Oscar. Guillermo del Toro made some pretty disturbing monster movies early in his career but Shape of Water was conventional, pedestrian and safe compared to Pan's Labyrinth.
I can't believe Once Upon a Time in Hollywood has been nominated for best picture Oscar. It's typical self-indulgent Tarantino, stroking himself over Hollywood nostalgia, and nothing really happens apart from the pornographically violent ending. The story, what there is of it, could all have been easily told in 90 minutes rather than the interminable three hours it took.3 -
