I'm in the same school as Lance. There are great movies that I don't like, but that I know are really good. It's impossible to make a case that The Godfather is a bad movie, but you can make a case that you don't like it. I didn't like shawshank, but it's a good movie. Gone Girl just sucked across the board.
Something like Starship Troopers was campy, cheesy and had silly plot and dialogue, but it was fucking awesome!
I saw Dunkirk in IMAX and it was great. I wouldn't want to see it at home or even in a conventional theater. It is the type of movie whose effectiveness is directly proportional to the size of the screen (52' x 72' for IMAX).
Shitty?
Absolutely not.
Limited by the context of presentation?
Yes
Addendum:
I went out on a boat to scatter a relatives ashes 2 hours after seeing it.
Chariots Of Fire-consisted almost entirely of 2 hours of dudes running on the beach to that shitty Vangelis song. Somehow it won the best picture, over more worthy candidates like Raiders Of The Lost Ark.
Bram Stoker's Dracula was the worst flaming shitpile of horrendous writing and acting I've ever seen, and to this day I still hear people gush about it.

Saw that at the theater and dropped acid. Thought it was great, but for the last 30 minutes or so, I had no clue what was going on. Maybe it wasn't the acid after all.
^^^^Titanic was terrible, Dances w Wolves is great...
Thought the Matrix was bad...never watched another....same w Mission Impossible...just terrible
What it sci fi movie that came out last year or two w alien ships landing all over world? Movie was ssoooooo bad, ive erased the title of film from my brain
Ya mean all the ground breaking effects filmed w cameras and equipment invented just for THAT movie?
Ya, once you get past the visually mind blowing parts...its just a good flik...put em together??
Cant wait for dec 2018 and the Underwater World of 2.
