Not Another Teen Movie (2001)
Columbia Pictures
Tomatometer: 29%

2.
Baby Mama (2008)
Universal Pictures
Tomatometer: 64%
Why it deserves a better rating: “I will go to my grave saying that Baby Mama is the BEST comedy. It’s Amy Poehler and Tina Fey, for goodness sake!

3.
Atlantis: The Lost Empire (2001)
Walt Disney Pictures
Tomatometer: 49%
Why it deserves a better rating: “This movie was my childhood! It’s an incredibly unique and diverse Disney movie with great characters. Kida deserves to be a Disney princess damn it!”
4.
Raise Your Voice (2004)
New Line Cinema
Tomatometer: 15%
Why it deserves a better rating: “I love that movie so much, and the fan score is WAY higher than the critics score because it is amazing. Hilary Duff was my idol when I was growing up; plus I love music and singing, so that movie was everything I could’ve wanted.”

White Chicks (2004)
Columbia Pictures
Tomatometer: 15%
Why it deserves a better rating: “This is one of the best movies I have ever seen and it has a really low rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Oof!”

8.
Catwoman (2004)
Warner Bros. Pictures
Tomatometer: 9%
Why it deserves a better rating: “I loved that movie to death when I was younger because it was cool to see a black Catwoman. Yeah, it had a horrible plot and didn’t make sense, but if it was better, then Halle Berry would’ve killed it. Plus, her outfit will always be one of my favorites.”
9.
Hook (1991)
TriStar Pictures
Tomatometer: 26%
Why it deserves a better rating: “That movie is such a classic. It’s so witty and hilarious. After rewatching it as an adult, you realize how well-written it was and how many jokes went over our heads. I also think it’s one of Robin Williams’ best movies.”
10.
Space Jam (1996)
Warner Bros.
Tomatometer: 43%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It’s a funny movie that took some of the best cartoon characters and paired them with Micheal Jordan and Bill Murray. It’s such a fun and nostalgic movie to watch.”
11.
Josie and the Pussycats (2001)
Universal Pictures
Tomatometer: 53%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It’s iconic and was way ahead of its time!”
12.
Crossroads (2002)
Paramount Pictures
Tomatometer: 14%
Why it deserves a better rating: “Crossroads with Britney Spears, Taryn Manning, and Zoe Saldana is currently rocking a 14% on Rotten Tomatoes, but I secretly love that movie! The music was great, and the storyline of best friends finding each other again was even better. It is the perfect early ’00s MTV movie that all teen girls loved. I still love it all these years later!”
13.
The Master of Disguise (2002)
Columbia Pictures
Tomatometer: 1%
Why it deserves a better rating: “I dont know what it is about, but it cracks me up every time I watch it!”

Chasing Liberty (2004)
Warner Bros.
Tomatometer: 18%

15.
Due Date (2010)
Warner Bros. Pictures
Tomatometer: 40%
Why it deserves a better rating: “Due Date with Robert Downey Jr. and Zach Galifianakis is absolutely hilarious. It’s utterly ridiculous, but the comedic dialogue is pure gold.”
16.
Grown Ups (2010)
Sony Pictures
Tomatometer: 10%
Why it deserves a better rating: “Sure it can be cheesy at times, but it really is a sweet, light-hearted, fun comedy!”

The Wedding Ringer (2015)
Sony Screen Gems
Tomatometer: 27%

18.
Bubble Boy (2001)
Touchstone Pictures
Tomatometer: 30%
Why it deserves a better rating: “The rating is blasphemous! Baby Jake Gyllenhaal is a treasure as Jimmy. Swoosie Kurtz is absolutely hilarious as his religion-obsessed mother. Danny Trejo needs more comedic roles, and young Zach Galifianakis working the bus terminal is the best non-important character role ever. It’s an endlessly quotable, fabulous movie that deserves all the stars.”
19.
Drop Dead Fred (1991)
New Line Cinema
Tomatometer: 9%
Why it deserves a better rating: “I saw it in the theater with a friend and I was the only one laughing. I now own it on DVD and it still makes me laugh. I’ve always loved Phoebe Cates. I’m not usually one for gross humor, but Rik Mayall was able to find the right balance for me.”
20.
Bring It On: All or Nothing (2006)
Universal Studios
Tomatometer: 20%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It’s the best film in the franchise, IMO. We would watch all the Bring It On films the night before a cheer competition, and this was always our favorite. Did it win Oscars? No. Will it be on MTV at 10 p.m. on the first Saturday of every month? Highly likely. I still record it to watch hungover on Sunday.”
21.
Monster-in-Law (2005)
New Line Cinema
Tomatometer: 17%
Why it deserves a better rating: “JLo vs. Jane Fonda? Yes, please! JF does not like JLo, who is newly engaged to JF’s son, so they try and make each other’s lives hell. It is HILARIOUS! This is a must.”
22.
The Lion King 2: Simba’s Pride (1998)
Walt Disney
Tomatometer: 43%
Why it deserves a better rating: “I know it isn’t as good as the original, but unlike other Disney sequels, this had heart and effort put into it. Beautiful songs, good characters (both old and new), a fun twist on Romeo and Juliet, and a nice story with a heartwarming message behind it — why do the critics not like it?”
23.
Get Smart (2008)
Warner Bros. Pictures
Tomatometer: 50%
Why it deserves a better rating: “Probably one of the most-quoted movies in my family, but the Rotten Tomatoes score doesn’t reflect that.”
24.
A Goofy Movie (1995)
Walt Disney
Tomatometer: 44%
Why it deserves a better rating: “Gosh, I loved that movie as a kid. I related to Max as a teen, and now I completely relate to Goofy. That’s a movie that definitely related to all audiences at various life stages.”
25.
Norbit (2007)
Dreamworks
Tomatometer: 9%
Why it deserves a better rating: “My 12-year-old self loved it and I’d be lying if I said I still didn’t like it. It’s so bad, but for whatever reason, it’s hilarious.”
26.
Polish Wedding (1998)
Fox Searchlight Pictures
Tomatometer: 42%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It’s a coming-of-age comedy and drama that centers around a Polish-American family. Claire Danes plays Gabriel Byrne’s daughter who gets pregnant by a neighbor, who is a local police officer.”
27.
Breakthrough (2019)
Walt Disney Studios
Tomatometer: 59%
Why it deserves a better rating: “I thought it was a pretty good movie. It’s based on the true story of a boy who fell in a frozen lake and survived.”
28.
Undrafted (2016)
Vertical Entertainment
Tomatometer: 14%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It was a hilarious movie that takes place during a baseball game. Although I am disappointed in the rating, I can promise you that it’s a film you’ll cry of laughter to with your best friends.” —newtmasforever
29.
Clifford (1994)
MGM
Tomatometer: 10%
Why it deserves a better rating: “This movie was my childhood. The scene where he’s being yelled at to look like a normal boy? Amazing! ‘Shame on you, Stephen! Shame on your eyes!’ All gold.” —beewest
30.
Drop Dead Gorgeous (1999)
New Line Cinema
Tomatometer: 46%
Why it deserves a better rating: “Its a mockumentary of a beauty pageant in the middle of dairy country. It’s HILARIOUS and witty. It totally deserves a higher rating.”
31.
Premonition (2007)
Sony
Tomatometer: 8%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It’s such a good movie, but the rating doesn’t match the quality of the film! How is that possible?!”
32.
W./E. (2012)
The Weinstein Company
Tomatometer: 13%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It was written and directed by Madonna. The story is compelling, the acting is so good, and the COSTUMES — OMG, the costumes! It received a lot of shit though, only because it’s directed by Madonna.”
33.
Super Mario Bros. (1993)
Buena Vista
Tomatometer: 23%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It’s known as a total flop, and everyone who worked on it knew that it would be, but it’s a childhood classic to me! It also has a killer soundtrack.”
34.
Aliens in the Attic (2009)
20th Century Fox
Tomatometer: 32%
Why it deserves a better rating: “It’s actually such a great movie! It’s so stupid, but it’s also hilarious and iconic.”

New Line Cinema
Tomatometer: 22%
