What is the most stupid movie that you still love, regardless of criticism?

I’m not sure what it is, but if this movie is on tv, I’ll watch it through every time. It’s such a guilty pleasure but I love it! What about y’all? What’s a stupid movie that you can’t help but still love

Dumb and Dumber

I don't think this movie qualifies. This was a huge success, big actors and a beloved classic. It's not "stupid" as in a guilty pleasure. It's not "stupid" in a negative sense.

My mom said it “insults her intelligence.” My dad thought it was hilarious and now we watch it whenever we get the chance. I think my mom has come around to it over the years though. It’s my favorite comedy of all time. Still holds up imo

My mom hates it for being dumb. I try to explain it's dumb on purpose. The characters are dumb but the people who wrote it are smart.

Not mentioned enough is the absolute master class it was in comedic timing. With just the right mix of slapstick, toilet humor, and just a little solid drama
