Great. Now I have to watch Waterworld again—to try to figure out why I didn't hate it as much as the critics. :P
I don't have such a list, but I'm normally close to agreement with the IMDb rating, so...
Following is my Advanced search result for IMDb rating >= 7.5 AND allmovie rating < 5.
It's fun to watch a movie like August Rush, feel good, read some reviews, then feel bad about feeling good. According to Berardinelli, "August Rush isn't just a bad movie - it's an aggressively bad movie." I'd be really conflicted if Ebert didn't like it. :-\

What timing! I just watched Planet of the Apes (1968). Not for the guilty pleasure, of course, but because of its historical importance. But somehow its four sequels and the even crappier 2001 version have appeared on my hard drive. I feel myself slipping... Just how bad are they? Am I losing perspective by watching too many good movies? :-\
Since you're encouraging me, here's a dare: I'll watch Planet of the Apes (2001) if you watch Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. ;D
Lee.ME:
I don't have a list either but I have seen a few of the movies listed and liked them, Including Waterworld.
Seems I like most of the movies that have a bad rating, and don't care for lots of the ones that have a good rating.
Maybe I should seek some kind of help for this lol. :D
