I love the Prestige. And MCU movies for the most part. Shawshank redemption was fine
Don't get me wrong, I was SO HYPED for The first half of the Endgame series. It kind of petered out and I didn't even end up watching endgame until over a year and a half after it left theaters. But knowing I wanted to see it I avoided most spoilers. I think we know which one I LITERALLY COULDN'T avoid.
I don't have much interest in the ones that came after endgame, they could be better than the originals for all I know, I've just lost my taste for them for now.
My wife and I did watch all of them in Chronological order though two years ago, since she had never seen most of them.
People have different tastes in movies, and that's okay. I won't hold shawshank against you lol my own wife didn't care for it, though for my sake she claims it was great.
I guess my very lazy point is that your taste in movies can be whatever you want, but we can't pretend basic action movies are cinematic masterpieces, or that being a proclaimed "cinematic masterpiece" means you'll like the movie. (I'd argue a movie can be a master class of cinema while still being an objectively bad movie)
