What is a movie that "looks like" it would suck, but actually is well written and acted and a good time?

I’ll start: “Happy Death Day”

    There are so many movies I could list but for now I’ll go with About Time (2013). Everything about it makes it seem like it would be a dumb sappy romcom but it manages to hit hard.

    EDIT: This is the type of image they used to market the film, which is really misleading.

      This is my favorite movie. It’s the best that was ever written about mindfulness.
