Mostly it's the ones I didn't hype for. Didn't watch trailers or knew any plot.

Like when I watched some of the IMDb top 250 just one by one without really looking what the movie is about except its setup (the Good the Bad the Ugly - Western, Twelve Angry Man - court case etc).

After big let down of suicide squad i stopped caring about trailers and now enjoy much more movies.

Yeah, sometimes the hype kills the movie.

True Stories. After 40 years I still watch it every few years to make sure it's still wierd. Excellent social commentary.

The movie 1917. I watched it going in blind. I knew it was praised by many, but then again, so are many other war movies. Now it's my favourite movie. I cannot help but cry at the scene in the basement, even thinking about it gives me goosebumps.

Rise of Skywalker - after the previous one, I expected to hate it, and was only seeing it to be done with the series. But I actually loved it.

I know it's goofy as hell, but it just felt like a proper Star Wars movie to me, it was fast, fun entertainment and it undid a lot of things I hated in Last Jedi.

Good answer, considering everyone else thinks that's movie is an abomination.
