I really enjoyed Resident evil.
I love my zombie movies and there's quite a few that score very low on RT.

The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou.
57% on RT but its probably one of my favourite Wes Anderson films.
Gonna go with Mortal Kombat (1995) 45%, a video game to film adaptation of a fighting game is never going to be deep, but this is a fun ride. Could add in the follow up, Annihilation (1997), 4% and the 2021 film which sits at 54% too. Don’t expect much and they are fun films.

2004's Van Helsing stands at 24%. It is silly but it is fun.
Don't know if it quite qualifies, since it's sitting at a 61% audience score, but my favorite horror film Event Horizon has only a 33% critic score. I find a lot of good horror movies sit at or below the 60% mark on Rotten Tomatoes though. If a horror movie is too well rated, it's probably not very scary and not interesting to me.
Underworld is 31%, but 79% audience score? So apparently quite a few people like it, could've fooled me. I might edit this if I find something else.
This has always been easy for me because my favorite movie is "Speed Racer" which has like a 40% on Rotten Tomatoes.
A movie that was genuinely before its time. Would fit right in these days with "Barbie" and "Everything Everywhere All At Once".

Chicken fucking Little
That movie slaps and no one can convince me otherwise
Speed Racer has a 42% critic rating which i would consider a crime against culture. one of my favourite movies
The 13th Warrior.
Yes, it doesn't follow the book 100%. Yes, there are some goofy or cheesy moments. For a 90s viking adventure though, I think it's fun.
People might take issue with Banderas playing a Muslim, but Spain was once part of the caliphate that conquered northern Africa. Having a viking who speaks Greek, considering the Kievan Rus had explored the Mediterranean and fought for the Byzantines by now, added to the historical aspects of the story.
Even the original manuscripts get a bit fantasy, so I like to think of it as the movie reeled it back to a more historically accurate story over the greater fantasy on the book.
The Secret Life of Walter Mitty. I absolutely adore the movie, but I'm actually content it didn't get all the recognition I think it deserves. The entire vibe of the movie is one of contentment; no need to force higher achievements.
Just looked and the original Fast and Furious is the lowest rated somehow? That movie rules
The Matrix Revolutions.
Released in the same year as Reloaded, which I don't think a movie series of that caliber has been done in a long time or since. But we got two Matrix sequels in one year. Reloaded has gotten a little more accepted as time went on but people are still divided on Revolutions. I quite frankly, thought the mainline series couldn't have ended on more of a note than it did. A lot of the content has gone over everyone's heads, even at the time, because it was all techy-techy stuff and had biblical themes in it as well. But if you look at the entire Matrix series as you would TRON, it makes a little more sense.
I, Robot - extremely disappointed that it didn't follow the books, but I've watched it several times and if you pretend it came out under a different title it's a good robot movie.
