Enjoyment is subjective. Quality is objective. Even iSm agrees that there's a lot to 'forgive' in a movie that he thoroughly enjoyed. Generally, I imagine that the inability to articulate why the perceived 'good' outweighed the 'bad' means that it's about enjoyment/taste. The quality is a separate issue.

For me, these threads become contentious when there is confusion between the two.

"I liked it!" and "It's good" aren't the same thing. Not by a long shot.
