Forgot about the Mad Max movies, loved those too, and I would have listed Terminator myself but I didn't see it until many years later so I can't really consider it a "childhood" film even though I was a kid when it came out and although I love it and think it's a classic.

One that I never really cared for even though it's considered a cult classic is Blade Runner. I love Harrison Ford and Ridley Scott but this movie just never did anything for me.

I know this is said all the time for lots of movies, but...the book is SO much better. It's a very short novel called Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? by Phillip K. Dick. A highly recommended read.

I would have to disagree a bit there.  Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep is a great book, but I thought Blade Runner, despite straying very far from the source material, was better.  It dethroned Ghostbusters as my favorite movie.

Regardless I still agree with the book recommendation though, it has a different enough tone/story to it that you can dislike the movie and still enjoy the book.
