* A very common defense of ''[[Sucker Punch]]''.
** And some fans give the defence "It's not supposed to be entertaining or enjoyable".
* [[Rotten Tomatoes]]'s "critic's consensus" system is very, very guilty of this. Chances are, if a movie turns out bad ([[Even Nerds Have Standards|but not]] [[So Bad ItsIt's Horrible (Darth Wiki)|below 10% bad]]), but is catered toward a specific demographic (children, fans of the source material etc.) the consensus will be written along the lines of "This movie is bad, but at least its target demographic will enjoy it.", [[They Just Didn't Care|the worst example]] being [http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/thunderbirds/ this] (Apparently, "Live-action [[Animation Age Ghetto|cartoon]] for [[Viewers Areare Morons|kids]]" speaks for itself).
* The [[Michael Bay]] ''[[Transformers (Film)|Transformers]]'' movies get this a lot, with complaints about their humor, characters, plot, and so on met with, "Look we're just here to see giant robots beat each other up, what do you expect?".
** Ofcourse the chief complaint is that the movies ''aren't'' about giant robots, but an annoying dude and his wacky hijinks watching these giant robots, who get so little characterization that they are often difficult to even tell apart.
