Just looked it up and was right to guess that it would be the same reference as Gump's.Schlesinger's film is funny, extraordinarily human and heartbreakingly sad, yet these hacks love to boil it down to a catch phrase.

Ghost Rider with Nic Cage or Depp’s Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Yes, yes, yes, yes and yes! All dog do
Hated all the Three Men and a Baby type movies, circa late 80’s, utter bilge.
The Grockle
Formally Croydon Seagull
I went on a cinema date with a girl, she chose Scary movie and laughed hysterically all the way through, I barely managed a grin. Probably the worse film I've ever seen
Escape To Victory, the only way it could have been worse, is if VAR had been deployed and added a further 15 minutes to the film.
Utter tosh.
Utter tosh.
Always hated it. Bobby Moore couldn’t act, the proper actors turned in wooden performances.
I feel like most films about sport are shit, particularly if you're familiar with the sport in question.
I don't doubt there are exceptions.

Coincidentally, recently uncovered evidence shows how Pele's character got the job drawing the VAR lines for our 2023 match away at Palace:
Can’t believe you’re slagging off Escape To Victory.
Next thing you’re gonna be having a go at When Saturday Comes

Genuinely, I like the endearing movie Eddie The Eagle. But I’ve never ski jumped …. more than a metre.

Yes, all those films were low rent, for the easily pleased amongst us. Look Who's Talking and the others that followed certainly fell into that category.
The Goonies back in the 80s. All I remember was a load of loud child actors shouting at each other all through the film in The Odeon cinema in West Street with the volume turned up on full. A dreadful experience.
I've been skiing once, if we can count "falling with style" (I assume nobody's claimed Toy Story's shit
) then I've definitely ski jumped more than a metre.Fortunately I was young and bouncy at the time.
I think it's probably fair to say that the less actual sport is shown or emphasised, the better the film.
I enjoy passing references to American sports in TV/Films, I suspect partly because I have absolutely no context for whether it actually depicts the sport properly.
I would also have liked to nominate Bram Stoker’s Dracula in the early 90s, in a hot non airconditioned Odeon cinema. But I had to walk out half way through and therefore didn’t see the whole film, but I did get a refund as I left

Gladiator 2 was a very, very poor watch.
Ridley Scott is another George Lucas. Once the best in the game, now bonkers.

For 'So bad it was good' I'd nominate the original Red Dawn. Starring Patrick Swayze, Jennifer Grey, that Thompson lady who played Marty's mother in Back To The Future, among others.
It was essentially two hours of U.S, Cold War propaganda.
"AVENGE ME!!!"
Oh and Robocop 3 deserves a shout.
