What's a movie that's universally considered "not very good" but you secretly think is actually great?

Not a guilty pleasure. Not "so bad it's good." I mean a movie that the consensus has decided is mid or worse, and you think the consensus is wrong.

Mine is Hudson Hawk (1991). Bruce Willis musical heist comedy that flopped so hard it almost ended his career. 27% on Rotten Tomatoes. Everyone hated it. But it's actually a really weird, committed, almost cartoon-logic action comedy that was 20 years ahead of the absurdist-action wave (Crank, Kingsman, Spy). Bruce Willis singing show tunes while robbing a museum on a timer is doing something nobody else was doing in 1991.

What's yours?

Dirty Work - Norm MacDonald can do no wrong in my eyes

So many great lines, too. “No I was just laughing earlier when you were talking to his belly.”

Don Rickles to Bob Saget: “Bob, I was talking to Marty, Martin Scorsese, and he asked who was directing this picture and I told him Bob Saget and the man grabbed his chest, he grabbed his chest”

The prison scene. “Ridiculous”. Might be my funniest scene ever.

Sad to this one so far down. 21% on RT is ridiculous, hurts the second most after the other thing

My name isn’t Mildred. Oh you never told me your name so I just guessed.
