I agree Dragon Inn is far from the best martial arts movie ever made, but I took this as pure comedy; perhaps I approached it wrong. My apologies. I think years ago we also disagreed about Gattaca. I can see I failed to learn my lesson.
I used to have same. I would recommend films, that I loved, to people without considering their tastes may be different than mine. I remember making a guarantee, to a former girlfriend, that she'd love Maximum Overdrive.
I didn't realize that most people didn't like it and that the only people that did like it were goofy like me (a few of my friends and I loved it). Needless to say, she thought it sucked and never took my movie tastes seriously after that.
Now I'll always say something like, "I liked it. I thought it was great." The qualifier gets me off the hook if it wasn't as well recieved by others.
