Can you think of a movie you didn't like at first, but grew to love?

Why do you think your opinion changed?

For me.. There Will Be Blood. First time, found it boring. The soundtrack, cinematography, storyline, all grew on me. The character Daniel Day Lewis portrays, ruthless, manipulative, exceedingly greedy, he was sort of symbolic of the zeitgeist, a culture that is still prevalent in the world, of doing anything for acquisition.

Also, the remake of The Hitchiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Fell asleep in the theater, but came to like it far more than the original.

And I've gotten to like Avatar more.

The Before Trilogy by Richard Linklater. More specifically Before Sunrise, when I first watched it, I think I was too young to understand and appreciate the depth of the dialogue, which is what the whole trilogy was based upon.. both the simplicity and depth of those conversations. Thankfully I gave it another watch a couple of years ago, and it became one of my all-time favourite movies.

@SW-User Time and a change of perspective is a curious thing

@DanielChristensen It is. But more than that, it's the conversational feel of it all. Not many, if any, movies do it well or focus on an original dialogue that feels realistic, genuine, contemplative and still full of cinematic effects.

@SW-User Sounds like something I would enjoy

@DanielChristensen If you haven't already, you should. It's a timeless movie, although I didn't care much about the last one in the trilogy, kind of made me a bit mad lol.. but they are meant to be watched as a trilogy, although each one is separate in a way. Hope you enjoy them. :)
