The only movie where I felt absolutely robbed afterwards was "The Village". And to make matters worse, I didn't want to go but allowed some friends to talk me into going (there were 10 of them, so my ability to fend off peer pressure was weak). The majority of them liked it and I absolutely loathed it...but, I guess it doesn't really apply to this thread since most people like to take a steaming dump all over that movie whenever it's brought up (save for a few friends of mine who I have debated with until we were both blue in the face).
As far as movies that most everyone loves but I just wasn't impressed with--there are too many to mention, but off the top of my head--the two sequels to Austin Powers. Sure, I liked the original when it first came out, but then quickly got tired of it when I had to endure a million terrible impressions for several years. Then the sequels came out and the unfunny impressions multiplied exponentially...not to mention the fact that Austin Powers 2 was an exact carbon copy of the first with just a few elements tweaked and the edition of a couple new characters. I didn't bother to see Goldmember, but I'd say it's a safe bet that I wouldn't like it either. The Scary Movie series was also pretty shitty, in my opinion. I think the Wayans (other than Damon) are horribly overrated.
