Compliments

I just realized that one of the biggest compliments I can pay something (a book, a movie, etc.) Is, "That messed me up."

Like when I say that something "messed me up", what I mean is that it made me feel a profound degree of surprise or confusion or amazement or fear that I am not used to feeling. Like it was very affecting. Which makes sense but it's still kind of strange.

I wonder if there's any noticeably percentage of people who think "messed-up" is a compliment or if it's just me.
