15 Worst Movies With the Best First Impressions (CBR.com)

"Not every film can capture an audience immediately, even if the rest of the movie is solid in its presentation. A movie's opening scene is meant to set the stage for events to come, establishing whatever lore or character motivations are needed to set the plot in motion. Unfortunately, these openings can often be one of the most tedious or slow-paced parts of an otherwise exciting movie. Some films manage to establish phenomenal first impressions only to fall short immediately afterward. The introductions to such movies are often unique and instantly engaging, making their following scenes feel much more disappointing. It isn't easy to sit through a movie when it's clear that the best parts are already over. There are so many movies that failed to live up to audience's expectations and first impressions that it would be impossible to list them all down. Although disappointment is subjective, some movies have gone on to become cautionary tales" - cbr.com
