People have quoted it to death so much so that it’s not even funny anymore, just cringe." —sarahtracey171 2 The Hobbit Trilogy 2012–14 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Warner Bros. Pictures "When I first watched it with my dad, I loved it. But after recently rewatching, I realised that The LOTR is way better and more genuine, while The Hobbit just feels like a jumbled mess that fails in basically every way to capture the essence of the book." —sirustundra 3 Ace Ventura 1994 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Warner Bros. "Absolutely loved it when I was younger; my brother and I would quote it constantly. I rewatched it as an adult and was mortified by the horrific and borderline violent transphobia." —erinmhazard 4 The Fifth Element 1997 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Buena Vista International "Some aspects of it are still good, and the storytelling is amazing, but all the misogynistic content that I was unable to recognise as a teenager is really, really terrible." —murrays3 5 The Twilight Films 2008–12 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Summit Entertainment "It was good at the time and fun while it lasted, but it's so cringey now! Also, I really can't stand Bella's awkwardness — it's too much." —Imara Oshibanjo 6 Drop Dead Fred 1991 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF New Line Cinema "I liked it when it came out on video (I'm old, I know). Then I saw it listed on one of my streaming channels and thought, Oh god no. It would annoy me to no end." —palmerd45 7 Four Weddings and a Funeral 1994 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Rank Film Distributors "When I was a teenager, I thought it was so romantic. Now I'm a little older, I realise Andie's character is awful! I know her fiancé is older, but that's not an excuse to cheat on him so casually. If you don't want to be together, break up." —cuteclcactus91 8 Mrs Doubtfire 1993 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF 20th Century Fox "I loved it as a kid but recently rewatched it and found it super uncomfortable. It's beyond creepy to disguise yourself and lie in order to spy on your ex-partner and kids." —Chuckleford McCharles 9 The Scary Movie Films 2000–13 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Dimension Films "They were hilarious when I was a 13-year-old, but I watched the second one the other day, and I'm not sure I even laughed once." —thefirsthovis 10 Speed Racer 2008 Warner Bros. "I watched it on my laptop once per day from the time I was around 5 until puberty said hi. I was around 20 when I decided to watch it for old times' sake. Gad. Not only was it obnoxiously loud in almost all senses, but the plot was also as coherent as a drunk dad on a disco dance floor." —prolix 11 Peter Pan 1953 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF RKO Radio Pictures "I used to love it, but as I've gotten older, the film gives me more sadness than nostalgia. Some people interpret Neverland as an allegory for heaven, and after hearing that theory, I couldn't see the childlike whimsy the same way. I'm also uncomfortable with the representation of Indigenous people, and honestly, Tinkerbell is kind of a jerk." —hiitsnicetomeetyou 12 Easy A 2010 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Sony Pictures Releasing "Me and my besties used to love it. Emma Stone is still an icon, but I’m just not into that movie anymore because of my changing sense of humour." —Zutarashipper88 13 Sex and the City 2008 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Warner Bros. Pictures "I rewatched the first movie (we don't talk about the second movie...ever) recently, and my LORD, I asked myself why I was so obsessed with this! The movie was straight cringe, and instead of sobbing while drinking wine and knowing the ending is happy, I was screaming at Carrie for being such an idiot. Amazing what 15 years can do to change your mind."—witchyribbon84 14 The Toy Story Films 1995–2019 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures "I know this might sound dumb. I used to love them, like every young child, but as more and more have come out, I guess the nostalgia wears off, and the story becomes repetitive and uninteresting. The new ones are so bad, they've ruined the rest for me." —sanbea 15 The Spiderwick Chronicles 2008 Paramount Pictures "It's a movie I used to love when I was a kid. However, I watched it recently, and the whole thing was absolute garbage." —Riley MacDonald 16 The Hangover 2009 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Warner Bros. Pictures "I didn’t love it, but it definitely seemed very funny at the time. Looking back, it was actually just kinda dumb, and 'Mr. Chow' was just a full-on lazy stereotype." —Hanifah Rahman 17 Shrek the Third 2007 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Paramount Pictures / Dreamworks Animation "It was the first movie I ever saw in theatres, and I loved it as a kid, but now that I'm older and can take off my nostalgia goggles, I can see that it wasn't really that good and it can't hold a candle to the (far superior) first two Shrek movies." —raymaariforever 18 Sixteen Candles 1984 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Universal Pictures "I pretty much love all John Hughes movies, but Sixteen Candles has not aged well. There are still scenes I like, but overall, I cannot bring myself to watch the film in its entirety." —thegreatgatsby 19 The Adventures of Milo and Otis 1986 Columbia Pictures "I adored that movie as a kid. I watched it over and over again and probably drove my mom around the bend, but I tried watching it as an adult, and it's actually a mess. And then I did research to find out why, and all of the animal abuse involved just killed any good feelings or memories. I hate the fact that I used to enjoy it, even though as a kid I had no way of knowing." —stofzuiger 20 Around the World in 80 Days 2004 Buena Vista Pictures Distribution "I used to love this film as a kid; I found it hilarious and super exciting. Watching it again, though, I just found it super cheesy, and none of the jokes landed. It was way more slapstick than I remembered, and I'm just not really into that anymore." —casualgem30 21 Lolita 1997 The Samuel Goldwyn Company "It used to be my favourite film after I found it on YouTube when I was a kid. But now I've read the book and I can't stand the movie; it's so bad. Lolita is not a love story but a story of abuse. The movie doesn't understand that, and neither does the director, who called it 'a tragic love story'. The whole idea of the book was completely lost." —lotte07 22 Phone Booth 2002 20th Century Fox "While it is fantastic, it loses all of its appeal once you know what happens. It just doesn't hit the same on subsequent viewings." —annak4f45e0f65 23 Waiting 2005 Tap to play GIF Tap to play GIF Lions Gate Films "I used to LOVE the movie and I tried to watch it recently, and MY GOODNESS, is it excruciating to sit through. In the bonus footage, Ryan Reynolds had his image blurred out. It's like he knew then that the movie was actually a huge POS and he wouldn't want to be associated with it years later. But boy, when I was in my 20s and in college, did I think it was hilarious. Big nope." —steacyc Note: Some submissions have been edited for length and/or clarity.
