8 Movies That Got Bad Reviews, But Still Defined My Childhood

In This Article:

They might be rated as "bad" but these movies rate 100% in my mind. I grew up on these movies and I'm not turning my back on them now.

1. "Lara Croft: Tomb Raider" (2001)

Giphy

It only got 20% on Rotten Tomatoes but she taught me how to be a bada** b****.

2. "RV" (2006)

Giphy

Even though it has a 23% on Rotten Tomatoes, the fact that JoJo is in this movie is amazing. Josh Hutcherson is so cute before he grew up and became a "Hunger Games" hottie.

3. "White Chicks" (2004)

Giphy

A 15% on Rotten Tomatoes is an actual travesty. I'm going to make my kids watch this movie, that's how much I love it.

4. "A Cinderella Story" (2004)

Giphy

Chad Michael Murray is everyone's dream prince charming and an 11% on Rotten Tomatoes doesn't do him justice.

5. "Space Jam" (1996)

Giphy

A 38% is way too low for this classic. If you don't know the "Space Jam" theme song, I don't want to know you.

6. "National Treasure" (2004)

Giphy

This movie is a national treasure and with a 44% Rotten Tomatoes rating, I'm disappointed. This movie inspired every kid to want to find a hidden treasure.

7. "The Princess Diaries" (2001)

Giphy

If you thought princess movies were only animated, you were wrong. And to think, this funny movie only got a 47% on Rotten Tomatoes.

8. "Miss Congeniality" (2002)

Giphy

This deserves higher than a 42%. Sandra Bullock makes this movie with her comedy and charisma.

I think the hardest thing about going away to college is figuring out how to become an adult. Leaving a household where your parents took care of literally everything (thanks, Mom!) and suddenly becoming your own boss is overwhelming. I feel like I'm doing a pretty good job of being a grown-up, but once in awhile I do something that really makes me feel like I'm #adulting. Twenty-somethings know what I'm talking about.

I went to a small high school, like 120-people-in-my-graduating-class small. It definitely had some good and some bad, and if you also went to a small high school, I’m sure you’ll relate to the things that I went through.

1. If something happens, everyone knows about it

Who hooked up with whom at the party? Yeah, heard about that an hour after it happened. You failed a test? Sorry, saw on Twitter last period. Facebook fight or, God forbid, real fight? It was on half the class’ Snapchat story half an hour ago. No matter what you do, someone will know about it.

Chandler Bing

I'm assuming that we've all heard of the hit 90's TV series, Friends, right? Who hasn't? Admittedly, I had pretty low expectations when I first started binge watching the show on Netflix, but I quickly became addicted.

Without a doubt, Chandler Bing is the most relatable character, and there isn't an episode where I don't find myself thinking, Yup, Iam definitely the Chandler of my friend group.

Working with the public can be a job, in and of itself. Some people are just plain rude for no reason. But regardless of how your day is going, always having to be in the best of moods, or at least act like it... right?

1. When a customer wants to return a product, hands you the receipt, where is printed "ALL SALES ARE FINAL" in all caps.

2. Just because you might be having a bad day, and you're in a crappy mood, doesn't make it okay for you to yell at me or be rude to me. I'm a person with feelings, just like you.

3. People refusing to be put on hold when a customer is standing right in front of you. Oh, how I wish I could just hang up on you!
