What's A Critically Acclaimed Movie That "Everyone" Seems To Hate Now?

A loooot of people apparently hate Forrest Gump now. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

So, I wanna know, what's a movie that was once critically acclaimed but is either broadly "hated" now or that you personally "hate"?

Perhaps you think Forrest Gump, which won six Oscars, is wildly overrated and just "boomer fanfiction"?

Or maybe you've hated Crash, which controversially won Best Picture over Brokeback Mountain, since the very beginning because you thought it was a pandering mess? (I may or may not be one of those people.)
