What's a show/movie everyone seems to love but you don't?

Have you every watched a film or TV series that are both critically acclaimed and applauded by audiences alike and when you watched it, you didn't get what the hype is all about? That's what this thread it about. Share your opinions and experiences with us, and explain why you felt the way you did. Keep it civilized though, I am encouraging a friendly conversation so keep in mind this is all just opinions in the end.

I'll start: recently I've watched Mindhunters. Being the big Fincher fan I am I've gotten excited... But unfortunately, that excitement was not met. I wouldn't call it bad by any means, but it was very underwhelming and boring. I expected much more, especially giving this is the same guy that made Zodiac. But that's just me, what about you?

honestly i'd say i could neverrr for the life of me get into Breaking Bad or Gilmore Girls. i've heard so many people hype them up and i just dont see what's so appealing. the Gilmore Girls to me is just so slow pace and boring, while Breaking Bad was funny and the writing was ok,, it just wasn't too interesting for me

The Lighthouse!!!! it was the most boring movie I have ever watched!!! And yes I understand the deep and powerful message/themes behind it, but that doesn't make it any less boring!!

^^^funny, I couldn't stand the Lighthouse either; was hoping it would be more Lynch/Cronenberg and less Beckett

I have a deep, deep, deep hatred for Everything Everywhere All at Once that I'm not going to get into here

can't stand Midsommar, thoroughly cliche and mediocre if you've seen any horror movie ever

I don't like any Edgar Wright movies at all, I find them obnoxious and deeply unfunny; I might like Spaced tho, haven't watched it yet

I despise everything A24 related (except Uncut Gems which I thought was decent but still overrated)

Also, no way with the Edgar Wright hate

Pearl and X are the two big ones for me! I understand why people enjoyed them, but I just couldn't stand watching them, though I felt like Pearl was the more tolerable of the two. I did however enjoy Maxxxine even though it was the last in the trilogy so at least it didn't feel like a total waste!
