Definitely yes.

Gattaca sucked so bad I can't describe it politely. Lousy premise that needed a contrived, and dishonest, plot.

Solaris sucked. The original story was tedious, marginally entertaining at the time,
but has not held up. I read it when it was published, and liked the ambiance, but when I reread it after seeing the Russian film, I realised times change and so did I. Why they made the first movie, much less the second,
is beyond me.

Close Encounters was good for it's time. But it hasn't held up either, IMnotsoHumbleO.

I didn't like Dark City,either.

There's plenty of room.
