Yellowbeard (1983) sort of qualifies with 22% tomatometer but 64% audience score.
Critics (and John Cleese) didn't like the movie at all but my friends and I all love it! Hard to dislike a stupid comedy stuffed with an incredible array of comedians; Cheech and Chong, Most of the cast of Monty Python, Peter Boyle and Marty Feldman, Peter Cook, and many other well known comedians of the 1960s and 70s. We still quote lines from the movie!
I'm 24 so my options are slim for "released during my adult life" but I really like The Greatest Showman and it's got a 57%. Yes, it's wildly inaccurate but dang the music and visuals are great.
My favorite movie of all time is A Goofy Movie from 1995 and just eeked out of the running with a 61%. Seriously, the movie is better than you remember it since you start to empathize with the dad as you grow up. I really recommend it.
I am proud to say that Young Einstein is my favourite Australian movie of all time.
Van Helsing! 24% Critic Score, 57% Audience Score. Even I cringed rewatching it, but it has a special place in my heart. 🐺
Too many to list, but I take Tomato scores with a grain of salt unless they're unusually low. I don't know if I just have a high tolerance for crappy movies or scores are too intolerant there. I've also seen a good number with high scores I thought should be low. Sometimes they rate movies highly just for being unusual or for having some kind of social message, but that hardly ever means better.
A 60% on RT says that 6 out of 10 professional reviewers enjoyed this movie. It's not a rating of the movie itself. But my answer is Freddy Got Fingered.
I really like Brother Bear. I read some "rotten" reviews and I genuinely don't understand them; I can't find anything bad mentioned.
Green Lantern. I think too many people had the expectation of that Green Lantern powers would be something more serious. They were always cartoonish, and Hal Jordan was always a bit of a dick. Ryan Reynolds was probably not the best choice, he's a bit too pretty for the role, but he had the right attitude. Still overall a fun movie.
The A Team for me. Just scrapes in at 48% rotten tomatoes. Wish they'd made a sequel.
Rotten tomatoes is a terrible site to sort/filter by. Dear god what terrible UI.
Pain & Gain only has a 50% score but it's arguably Michael Bay's best film in the last decade.
The Cable Guy and BASEketball flopped and are 55% and 41% respectively but those are two of my favorite comedies of all time.
Difficult question to answer when you don't use rotten tomatoes, but the ones I've found are Mortal Engines, Fast and Furios, Oblivion (barely)
Transcendence 19% I'm a sucker for sci-fi with a cool concept like mind uploading
Green Hornet 44% It's funny and the fight choreography is cool
Hitman
I just like the action, Timothy Olyphant, and like seeing Olga Kurylenko naked.
Scorpion King.
Dumb fun and i love it.
Also as someone else said already, Equilibrium and Prince of Persia.
The highest upvote comments really didn't understand the assignment.
It’s a smidge over the threshold (63% reviewer score and 29% audience score) but I like this one more than the Ed Norton one (and the thought of him shifting based on heartrate is so fucking dumb) and I’m just kinda meh about Ruffalo’s Hulk.
Any transformers movie. I just like seeing a bunch of cars transform into robots to then fight each other.
