We recently did an article on the list of movies that audiences loved, but critics hated. This time we are doing exactly the opposite. From time to time there are movies that critics fall in head over heals in love with, but audiences completely reject them. No one can tell exactly why that happens. After all, a good movie is a good movie, and ideally if critics — who are the presumed experts on movies — declare a film as good, audiences should also feel the same way. But of course, that’s not how it works and that’s why this article. Here is the list of top movies that critically acclaimed movies that were rejected by audiences.
