Sometimes, you're watching a bad movie, and you keep watching it out of sheer stubbornness, or maybe you still have faith in humanity and believe that things can change.

And rarely you are rewarded: the movie that started out bad actually morphs into something surprisingly good. That's the case with these 10 works.

Usually, it's vice versa: the movie feels great, you're extremely hyped thinking how they're gonna resolve everything in the end — and then the ending flops and leaves you with a sour taste in your mouth feeling like you just flushed two hours of your life down the drain.

But when it happens the other way around, it's even more surprising, but in a much more satisfying way, because these two hours that you spent watching this weren't actually for nothing.

But a few of the movies in this list introduce the plot twist that literally saves them.
