That has to be one of the cringiest movies I've seen, is tries so hard, too hard with it's "WE LOVE YOU NERD, YOU'RE SO COOL FOR PLAYING GAMES AND GETTING THIS 80S REFERENCE" message and the whole "corporation bad, the people good" narrative seems written for toddlers... The fan service feels cheap and adds nothing to the story.
Finally, they trying to make the people believe that very attractive girl with a barely visible red tint spot on her face is "ugly"... Like wtf?
Yet it received decent reviews plus being one of the most successful movies of that year.

Titanic.
The hype here was insane, when I finally saw it the experience was.. underwhelming. Such a boring slog of a movie, mediocre CGI when disaster finally struck and that stupid end.. Get on the piece of wood that is obviously big enough to hold you both, you dolt.
Only upside is that I watched it on TV, so apart from some hours of my life I'll never get back it didn't cost me anything.
Titanic is not a good film, but the best part about the film was that my mom assumed since it was rated PG-13, it would be ok for me to watch at 10 years old. She was shocked and upset when I got to see some 70mm film boobies!
I have no desire to ever watch it. The romantic fantasy doesn't work for me as a straight man. I'm not attractive enough for some rich, hot woman to take an interest. Even the hot, male love interest dies in the end, but like Bill Burr said, I'd be the guy ricocheting off of the propeller as the ship breaks up.
I think Titanic would have been a better film if they had cast someone other than Leo DiCaprio.
