Opinions: What is a movie you genuinely like, that is rated below 60% on rotten tomatoes? (xkcd.com)

Inspired by the linked XKCD. Using 60% instead of 50% because that's an easy filter to apply on rottentomatoes.

I'll go first: I think "Sherlock Holmes: A game of Shadows" was awesome, from the plot to the characters ,and especially how they used screen-play to highlight how Sherlocks head works in these absurd ways.

I think Constantine got some redemption in past few years; a lot of people were initially angry with Keanu's casting and the divergence from the comic book character. A little over a decade after its release I started seeing articles saying that it was much better than everyone's initial knee-jerk reactions. I've always liked it and bought the DVD for it as soon as it was available.

I'm surprised at Hellboy and Robocop though as I don't know anyone who disliked either of them. My only complaint about the Robocop reboot was it just didn't seem ... "tight" enough. Like there was wasted screen time but I'm not director and wouldn't know what to cut.
