The first Jurassic Park movie is all time one of the greatest films ever made with the special effects still holding up to this day. The 2nd film was still very enjoyable in my opinion but it was just a cookie cutter sequel not bad, not good. The 3rd film wasnโ€™t great at all. But compared to the rest of the series the 3rd film is basically the godfather.

As another personal pick the 1st blade movie is a hood classic good. The other 2 not so much.

Mad Max?

1 - OK as a prelude 2 - Brilliant 3 - .... 4 - Not bad, not bad at all 5 - The Furiosa one was too much CGI. I was far too annoyed by how the vehicles had armour but exposed tyres

Highlander. The first is cheesy but fairly enjoyable, and all the sequels go downhill in fascinatingly bad ways. Unfortunately, I'd like to find the theatrical version of Highlander 2: The Quickening, because I like bad movies and the renegade cut cuts some of the bad

Guardians of the Galaxy, The Hangover, Star Wars, The Fast and the Furious, there are so many. Once that cash cow starts squirting powdered milk out of its teats they just keep squeezing.

Not a film really but Marvel films have been in rapid decline since Avengers 1

Terminator? T2 is regarded as that franchise's best flick and it's only downhill from T3 onward.

Robocop as a franchise also infamously went down the toilet after the first movie, each sequel degraded in quality until the complete mess that was Robocop 3 happened.

Terminator. First was great. Two was a masterpiece. Third was mid. Rest is an utter garbage

maybe despicable me?
(this is from a Movie critic opinion btw.)

I'm tempted to say the Rocky series, given Rocky V. But the fact is, III and particularly IV rocked!
