7 Acclaimed Recent Movies Everyone Will Turn On

Enjoy the honeymoon period.

The passage of time can do many things to a movie, such as deepen its meaning, reveal some unexpected parallels to the present day...or cause audiences to end up turning on the film entirely.

Though these recent films all received solid critical praise, they also seem primed to fall out of favour with general audiences sometime over the next few years. And for some the backlash has well and truly started.

The reasons for this are numerous: perhaps the honeymoon period has simply worn off, Internet commentators have revealed some less-pleasant political implications of the movie, or maybe the film ends up kick-starting an unpleasant trend for its respective franchise.

In the years to come, you may well wonder why many of these movies have Fresh Rotten Tomatoes scores, and why some of them were drooled over so enthusiastically by the Oscars.
