Many movies that have been hated and slammed by critic's etc, I have and still do enjoy, for example: Fantastic Four (2005 & 2007),
Conan the Barbarian (2011), Sucker Punch (2011), Suicide Squad (2016), Green Lantern (2011), Jonah Hex (2010), & Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice (2016) to name but a few.

I'm with you on both Sucker Punch and Batan V Superman mate, even the F4 movies were ok for thier era but things like Jonah Hex and Suicide Squad were pretty unexcusable.
I may have mentioned before but for a good suicide squad movie watch the animated one called Assault on Arkham.

Oh I have FantasticMR. I own a copy of Assault on Arkham, and I love it.
I never understood why it is headed as a Batman movie as he only features in it.
I HAVE A HUGE CRUSH ON HARLEY QUINN!!!!!

Personally i think Batman v Superman kinda deserved the hatred it got, but each to their own. I agree on the 2011 Conan film though, good casting with Momoa and good action (Actually preferred it to the 80's ones myself).
I'd add 'The Losers' not the most original film and not groundbreaking but i found it very entertaining. Suicide Squad had its moments for me so don't agree with the hate on that (should have been R/18 rated though).

Gonna take me a while to compile a few of my own to add / contribute to the list so for now will focus on those mentioned. The Conan rehash/reimagining..whatever, i thought was actually very likeable..both harmless fun and suitably violent to boot. I still prefer the original movies but a bang up job none the less. 'The Losers'..the one with Idris Elba and Chris Evans (amongst others), almost came oout of nowhere, has now all but vanished without a trace but very likeable as well. Referencing 'Sucker Punch'..that films an odd beast. Can recall enjoying the film on first viewing but on attempting to watch again fairly recently fell asleep through boredom, not once but twice (not a result of the action heavy scenes..pretty much the rest of it though).

I think The Losers was harshly judged by critics, and yes it did disappear. Had a good cast too and it just didn't find its audience.
Sucker Punch I liked, and it showed real imagination. It was out a similar time as Inception I believe, and had a similar premise (taking place in someone's mind) and despised Inception but enjoyed Sucker Punch.
