today we're counting down our picks for the most surprising times a bad movie switched things up for the better.

To be fair, this film isn't exactly Citizen Kane.

Starts off simple and then snowballs into a much more complicated story.

We'll give the movie credit for its use of a Rubik's Cube.

Using the toy as an important plot device.

The narrative comes down to saving the universe.

These kinds of stakes make this stoner comedy a fantastical, offbeat piece of work.

The cube becomes the continuum trans functioner and must be solved.

Thankfully for the lead duo, some Norwegian guys are ready to help out.

You don't know quite how it all happened, but you can't get mad at this goofy twist.

With a large catalog of wacky projects, Adam Sandler seems fit for a movie about shoemaking.

The cobbler gives his hero, Max, the opportunity to switch lives with each new pair.

It sounds fun until you realize the plot wants to be everything all at once.

Thankfully for the audience, the movie gives them a reason to stick around to the end.

Steve Buscemi's barber, Jimmy, takes off his footwear to reveal he's the main character's father, Abraham.

You see, the thing is, I'm not just a barber, Max.

Through it all, you realize that the dad isn't dead after all.

This Dustin Hoffman jump scare catches you off guard before altering the plot once more in this strange and funny twist.

You can't quite believe an average script hides this kind of greatness.

Number 48, Puberty Love Attack of the Killer Tomatoes.

Gloriously dumb, this 1970s horror movie features the comical invasion of the title fruit.

There are a handful of absurd encounters, from kitchen murders to aquatic attacks.

By the end, the tomatoes find themselves trapped in a stadium.

The film then decides to use music to take down the enemies.

Using a song titled Puberty Love, the humans take back their world from the modified villains.

It's not exactly the kind of weapon you'd expect to fight off a powerful Horde.

In keeping with the story's silly tone, this plot delivers by giving everyone an excuse to stomp on the red.

Julia Roberts Ocean's 12 we as a society need to get over the momentary hate for Ocean's Twelve.

While it received mixed reviews at the time, some fans have come around to this goofy film.

Steven Soderbergh's sequel becomes super meta in the final act.

You're gonna have to play a small role in this thing.

The character Tess bears a resemblance to Julia Roberts, with the real actress playing a part of the heist.

Roberts is more than game to play a version of herself, while a cameo from Bruce Willis only amplifies the sequence.

With some witty dialogue, this crazy moment pokes fun at celebrities with a fun acting exercise.

You can call the movie a series of cop outs, but this turn still feels comedically bold.

46 the tape vacancy many movie motels are known for hiding dark secrets.

But the extent of the revelations might surprise viewers.

Both Amy and David Fox stay in a room with an unfortunate tape to watch.

Can't just mute it or something so I don't have to hear it?

Not only is the footage disturbing, it's also set in the same place that they're staying.

Talk about a huge turning point that sets the tone for this horror film.

Audiences are clamoring for something to happen until this scene throwing viewers for a loop.

The plot tries its best to separate itself from a hundred other thrillers.

It's still a B movie, but the story benefits from the heroes receiving this scary warning.

Number 45 Elton John's cameo the Golden Circle if you were lucky enough to watch this movie with no information, you'd be surprised to spot this music legend in the cast.

Elton John plays himself as a prisoner of Julianne Moore's villain, Poppy.

Hey Elton, have you been a bad boy again?

He's not only there to sing and poke fun at his celebrity status, but also to fight.

In the third act of the Golden Circle, the pop star develops some incredible hand to hand combat skills.

John seems more than happy to make several jokes at his own expense.

In the end, we're happy that somebody had a good time with this lackluster sequel.

Can I have two tickets to your next concert?

Darling, if you save the world, you can have a backstage pass.

In this Ethan Coen thriller, Margaret Qualley's detective Honey o' Donohue sparks up a fling with Aubrey Plaza's MG Falcone.

The twisty plot involves a load of red herrings and even side characters played by Chris Evans.

Before you start wondering what all the fuss is about, Plaza's police officer returns to reignite this crime tale.

She also proves to be a dangerous criminal.

This initiates a fun fight with a tea kettle becoming a weapon.
