Kung pow enter the fist. Screw what the critics and rotten tomatoes score says. The movie is goated!

Chronicles of Riddick. Not sure it's considered a "bad" movie, but I definitely like it more than most. Just a crazy entertaining world and system they build in a short 2 hour long movie.
Oh, good one!
Pitch Black, in particular, is one that is hard to explain to anyone who didn't see it under ideal circumstances.
I feel like folks ask me:
"Isn't that just another dark sci-fi edgelord apocalypse movies?"
I mean, technically, I guess, yes - but it's so well done that it becomes something more.

I unironically love Armageddon and The Core. Yes, they're both stupid and unrealistic movies, but that works in their favor about as often as against. Something about the way they play with the core concepts makes me love them.

I unironically enjoy the old 2005 Fantastic 4 movie. It was cheesy as fuck, I don't deny that. But it was fun. And the comics themselves can be as bad or worse sometimes.
Also I like Julian McMahon.
Also also, Chris Evans towel scene.

Mine's gotta be "The Brothers Grimm" starring Matt Damon and Heath Ledger. It's the same camp vibe as the "Van Helsing" movie starring Hugh Jackman, but there's no badass super hero to save the day - there's just a bunch of imperfect people trying their best, and it's almost entirely by luck or destiny that they snatch victory from the clutches of defeat. It's also one of the most morbid depictions of childish horror i've seen on-screen, where it gives no fucks about being realistic.

Six String Samurai. It's not good. But it's soooo quotable!
Nice shoes. Nice shoes to DIE in!

Titan A.E. Is a masterpiece.
Dredd (2012) is a near perfect 80s/90's style, over the top action movie made 25 years too late.
Well shot action scenes.
Excellent soundtrack.
Pretty darn well paced.
Good helping of action hero one liners.
Plot is simple enough for idiot, explosion go boom, brain to follow, but also takes itself seriously enough to present the horrors of its world via interactions with minor characters.
Karl Urban manages to do more acting with only his mouth and chin, and line delivery, than many other actors do with their whole face.
Olivia Thirlby is also very, very good, I do not understand why some other director has not cast her in an action oriented role since... now that Nintendo seems to actually allow their IP in films: Make her blonde again and she is Samus Aran.
EDIT:
In case you haven't seen it... this is a bit spoilery, but here's a decent 4 minute representative sample to give you an impression of the movie.

Okay, I've got one that no one has mentioned.
Without clicking the link, just imagine what it might be.
Got it pictured?
Yes. It is exactly what you imagined.
It's Star Wars and Space Balls splashed across Trucker stereotypes. It's affordably made, except when it's trying to be gross - when no expense is spared.
But somehow it's also... just all around...good? It's good. I can't explain it. But... it's just... a pretty good movie.
The characters are relatable. The acting is professional and effective. It's easy to root for the main cast, and against the badguys. All the story beats land where and how they should.
I want to see someone do one of those high minded film making analysis on "Space Truckers", because I suspect it is better on every level than it has any right to be.

Contact
I know but that's why I like it
What heck man that is an awesome movie! Based on a Carl Sagan book (which I own) and got Jodie Foster in it (my first movie star crush) this doesn't belong here.
For me its Mallrats. and Jersey Girl, don't care what Kevin Smith says those are both great movies.

Contact is amazing. there's no way it could be considered a "shitty lil movie"
It's science fiction done properly.
Hot Rod! I can quote pretty much the whole movie. It’s such a fun ride.

Elrond commanding motorized london for the win
Making a film so bland and forgettable but still one of the coolest things I've ever seen is a feat.

Ice Pirates (1984): A bunch of A-Listers before they were big. Great practical effects. Spaceships, Pirates, Time Travel, 'robots' It was magnificent.
Close second: The Cat from Outer Space (1978). It was a Disney flick, but really great for the time.
