Don’t judge a book by its cover is a hard rule to go by when it comes to the title of a film. Granted with today’s expansive and invasive media, it is hard not to know what a movie is about before watching it but going just by the title, some movies make no sense. Some films could have been called pretty much anything else and it would have made a little more sense, yet what they ended up with was greatly misleading for audiences. While the title ends up making sense after seeing the movie, a lot of films tend to make things easier by being upfront with their name, these seven films however did the exact opposite. So, rest assured, these films are nothing what they sound like.
7. The Iron Lady
How anyone thought that this title wasn’t going to get mixed up and confused with the blockbuster superhero franchise Iron Man is hard to understand. Then again, maybe they did know and hoped it would draw attention. While former British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher was known as the Iron Lady, given the prevalence of Iron Man in pop culture, not many would automatically think Thatcher when faced with the title of this movie. In a day and age where superhero films are everywhere but few female superheroes are represented, this just gives the wrong idea to those probably thinking Iron Man has met his female match.
