The Blair Witch Project
The Blair Witch Project was legendary for the time it came out, and it inspired a generation of copycat films, but when the hype died down, many critics and viewers figured out that it was a movie where nothing really happens. Jeremy Gill of the Reel Rundown criticizes the movie's protagonists, calling them "irritating and unlikable" and stating that "viewers are almost happy to see them lost in the haunted woods."
Ferris Bueller's Day Off
For some reason, the bratty rich kid trope didn't resonate well with a lot of viewers. Plus, it's hard to love a character who's kind of a jerk to his friends, family, and girlfriend. Ferris Bueller's Day Off was a really important movie of the time, but nowadays, critics are realizing that they overrated this one.
