That happened to me a week or two ago with G.I. Joe. It's on Netflix streaming; I wouldn't have gone out and rented it, but if all I've got to do is click a button, I'm more willing to give a bad movie a chance. It was alright, a bit too heavy with character flashbacks, and a lot of badly gratuitous action movie tropes, but for the most part the cast realize what movie they're making. There were a couple of interesting ideas dealing specifically with, well, the "rise" or origin of Cobra, nice setups and call backs. Wasn't left feeling like I'd wasted two hours of my life, but I don't feel compelled to ever watch it again.
