A Space Odyssey (1968) - From Bone to Satellite Scene.
I thought, untill the "Bone to Satellite Scene" it was going to be something like exploration of the progress from then, up to the Brigitte Bardot 'One Million Years B.C.' to the present day. Instead it was bollocks.
My brothers took me to see this at the 'pictures' when it came out. I fell asleep shortly after this scene. I've still never managed to watch the whole film without falling asleep.

I generally like most films, and I watch a lot of them.
Often when I don't like them is when Hollywood thinks that throwing a lot of money at a turd to polish it will make it a great film. There's many $100,000,000 turds out there. As said before super hero and star wars movies, but many of the transformer movies, cliche horror and other mindless drivel that that gets pumped out as well.
Give me a well written and executed b-grade over that inane commercialism any day, geez, give me a crappy b-grade even. At least I'll get a laugh.

I read the book before I watched it, mostly because I had just read The Odyssey by Homer and was curious if they were related. They weren't. Book was decent though. I too fell asleep for the movie and have not finished it.

People are gonna say "What?! No Way!"
Way.
The Lord of the Rings trilogy by Peter Jackson.
Didn't even watch The Hobbit 
Mushrooms grow from shit. I love mushrooms, I don't like the shit.
Likwise much of the Fantasy genre grew out of Tolkien's trilogy.
I really wish it hadn't.
I wish Fantasy literature and movies derived from something more wholesome than a take about total race war to the death by an Englishman who grew up in apartheid South Africa.
Neonazis love those books for the same reason I despise them.
The movies stayed true to the theme.
There were no non-white protagonists and tons of non-white antagonists.

Yeah the hype on it was out of this world, and when I finally saw it...meh. Wouldn't watch it again.
I will say though that I at least enjoyed the theories regarding Hoffa's disappearance/murder and the JFK assassination.

Ive been keen to watch the Irishman. What's it like compared to other mob classics?
I agree with Barnaby on chucks p. books. Fight Club book is one of my favorites and so is Choke (which Sam Rockwell played really well in film version)
Napoleon Dynamite. I couldn't watch more than 20min of it. My friends loved it when it came out but i never seen it until last year. Didn't miss much.
It's a tv show but i couldn't get into Animal Kingdom. Tried to. Friend said it gets better but few episodes in i wasn't going to waste anymore time.

Extremely slow, and extremely long. I think it clocks in at close to 4 hrs. And I don't mind a slow burn at all, but The Irishman is even on another level of slow. It's still a Martin Scorcese film so it's elite quality film making for sure.
As far as what it compares to -- I'm really not sure. It's nothing like any of the usual mob classics. It's basically a portrayal of real life Frank Sheeran (now dead), who claimed to be Jimmy Hoffa's right hand man, and also claimed to know how he died (I won't spoil that part for you). There's also a pretty incredible claim as to who was truly responsible for the JFK assassination as well.

As a woman, like every romantic comedy ever made.
Honorable mentions go to Love Actually and Silver Linings Playbook(I guess that's not really a traditional rom com, but it still sucked).

Here’s a new one:
Knives out.
Everyone who saw it thought it was great or compared it to Clue.
Didn’t like it, hated it in fact (it was shit and medically false). Clue kicks ass.
I liked and still like fight club. I liked the original matrix in 99. I think it aged a little. Fuck the 2 sequels.
Did not like interstellar.. didn’t hate it but same fucking reaction from everyone that beats off to it... you must not understand it.
I don’t like any film with Ann Hathaway actually. I don’t have a sister but I feel like watching her is like watching my sister in a movie if I had one. She is not sexy. When she tries to play sexy I vomit in my mouth.
Sorry Ann. I know your probably creeping on the shroomery. Your just not my cup of tea.
