There's no one genre I won't watch tbh, there is at least one or two of any one I like.
Westerns used to bore me, but Jane Got A Gun saved the genre.

Urgh, superhero TRASH

They are largely utterly awful

Only Spiderman is any good

Also, I second political/ horror movies (although in real life politics and horror are one and the same these days)

I would say the documentary genre of film. I just can't keep myself still when watching them, need to stand up and go out right away.

Best to say I wouldn't be rushing to see a Downton Abbey film if that was made.

I hate country and westerns, crime/murder type films, war films and also old films, particularly black and white, also anything that is subbed

I'm quite egocentric with my film taste which basically means that I have to be able to relate to the film. So I err towards character-focused dramas set in a world that's not too far from the one I know, generally with plenty of dialogue.

Having said that, there's loads of sci-fi and historical films that I love. Visually-focused, 'style over substance' films which deliberately avoid any social realism whatsoever can also be great. The Neon Demon is a recent highlight.

I feel like I'm not answering the question but I'm just trying to explain why I love Boyhood but hate Transformers. And can't get into the Coen Brothers or Wes Anderson.

Costume dramas don't really appeal to me.

I'm also not keen on Westerns, although one of my favourite ever films is Blazing Saddles, and I did enjoy Unforgiven & Django Unchained. Although those three films all subverted the Western genre in different ways.

I'd also add war films into that as well, can only think of one or two that I actively enjoyed, like Hacksaw Ridge.

Some war films can be quite dull to be honest.
