What are some of the worst films you have seen?

[biker74]

Noticed the favourite film thread, so thought I would start this one. Apologies if its been done already.

Harlem Nights - I'd paid my money so I was staying - worst film ever.

That was of course until I saw:

Churchill: The Hollywood Years - bloody awful, the outtakes at the end were the best part.

Work in a Cinema now, so didn't pay for the last one.

There have been other films that have been bad, but I'm talking really crap films.

[dukebound85]

most of the ones on hulu lol

only movie ive walked out on in the theatere is "dumb and dumberer"

[edesignuk]

Torque (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0329691/).

[biker74]

Actually, while I remember.

The film that got most people walking out in the last year was 'The Fox and the Child'. We had it for 2 days and then pulled it.

[windowpain]

Wow... Well, I tend to repress the worst ones, but one I remember being particularly bad was Catwoman, what was (oscar winner!!) Halle Berry thinking when she took on this one!
I'm sure there are some I've seen that were far worse though.

[Dagless]

Pretty much everything but specifics-

Juno
Napoleon Dynamite
(the new) War of the Worlds
Any teen comedy or teen horror. They're either horrifically unfunny or so obvious and cliché that it becomes an unintentional comedy.

All I can think of now. But still most films.

[DigiCatRedux]

Barb Wire: friend is a Pam Anderson nut- so he dragged me along for this turd. Absolutely Awful.

Ultraviolet: watched about 10 minutes of this on tv before *click!*.

Howard the Duck: The only redeeming thing about this film was Lea Thompson in a miniskirt, back when she was cute.

Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever: hand me a barf bag.

ANY of those "Movie" movies: Horrible "comedy". About as fun as having your toenails chewed off by diseased rodents.

[iGary]

August Rush

[Lau]

Napoleon Dynamite

I'm shocked! Although it's made me think I might enjoy Juno if you didn't enjoy that either. ;)

The worst I've seen was AI (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0212720/). I worked in a cinema at the time, and in spite of seeing it free, during company time, with popcorn and illicit beer, and all my splendid co-workers, it was still two hours I resent the time I spent watching it. Absolutely dire.

[ShaneR]

anything with Ice Cube, Keanu Reeves, Paul walker, Vin Desiel, Steven Segal,( i could probably go on and on) in them, are garbage...IMO

[Brianstorm91]

Signs was pretty shocking.

[heehee]

Artificial Intelligence: AI. The whole movie was: "Where is my mommy? I want my mommy." It was so bad I had to walk out of the theater.

[arkitect]

Worst I have seen?

1. Saw (I just don't get this genre of gratuitous torture flicks…)
2. Matrix "Reloaded"…
3. Jaws "The Revenge" (A growling great white follows Brody mum all the way to the Bahamas to exact revenge? :rolleyes:)

Special Award:
But, my all time favourite worst movie has to be Faye Dunaway chewing carpet in Mommy Dearest.
A movie so bad you have got to love it.

[xUKHCx]

RPM (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118441/) is by far the worst film in the world. It is actually so bad I have recommended it to people as they need to see how bad things can get.


Octane (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Octane_(film)) - was on the TV very late night. It went downhill went there was a rave in the back of an oil tanker :confused:

[BillyBobBongo]

I recently saw the Mummy 3.

I've never felt the need to get up and walk out of a movie before....but this time......

[Melrose]

My dad has the curious knack of being able to pick some of the worst movies we've seen. (To his credit, once in a blue moon he's picked good ones)

The one that takes the cake is "The Wizard of Speed and Time (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081766/)" a REALLY grade-z film if there ever was one.

Then, he picked this one (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102800/). I know we've seen other, probably equally horrid, movies but those two seem to have scarred my mind the most.

[Schtumple]

Signs, The Happening & The Village - Worst endings ever...

All the "insert genre here" Movie films (Scary Movie, Date Movie, Superhero Movie etc etc) - How any of the "writers" have any dignity left is beyond me...

Lindsey Lohan films - I once had to sit through Freaky Friday with an ex girlfriend, I lost a lot of brain cells that day...

Recent Adam Sandler films - He's sold out, and then some...

Get Smart - I wanted to like it for Carrell, but sadly it was just too crap...

Hancock - The trailer made it awesome, the film made it boring...

That's all that I can think of for now.

[Melrose]

^^ I thought The Village ended pretty good. I like endings that are dramatic like that.

And I agree with you wholeheartedly about Sandler movies. I really don't see why he's so popular..

[EarthDawn]

without a doubt

Texas Chainsaw Massacre: The Next Generation
starring: Renée Zellweger and Matthew McConaughey

seriously lol... they were the stars.... horrible !!!!!!

[gonyr]

Without a doubt, it has to be City Slickers II: The Legend of Curly's Gold. I saw it for free, and I felt like I was ripped off.

[iBlue]

Be Kind Rewind (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0799934/). dumb as hell, didn't even watch it all the way through.

(it's the only one I can think of at the moment... )

You don't mess with the Zohan was pretty stupid but probably not the worst I've seen.

I liked Hancock, whoever said it sucked.

[Raid]

Well I watched a lot of "B" movies in my day, so a bad film to me is only really bad when it's trying to be good.

In recent memory (last couple of years) I'd have to say my list would be:
Smokin' Aces (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475394/)
Kull the Conqueror (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0119484/) -oh dear god why did my 'friend' rent that POS?
The Bank Job (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0200465/)

The top award for me has to go to Fargo (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116282/), I went to see it in the dollar theatre at Uni, I almost demanded my dollar back.

The one movie that didn't make my list, but I won't be surprised to see it here is Shoot 'Em Up (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0465602/), it's a movie that you can't take seriously for a second, but they made it fun to watch. In my mind that puts it in the rare "B" movie with "A" budget category. Also it earns points for being shot (almost entirely) in a 5km radius around my condo.

[jessica.]

Torque (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0329691/).

And Freddy Got Fingered.

[iBlue]

And Freddy Got Fingered.

You seem to have a thing with fingers. What did you think of Edward Scissorhands? :D Admit it, that freaked you right out!

[®îçhå®?]

I agree with jimmi, Napoleon Dynamite was awful!

And I thought Interview With The Vampire (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0110148/) would be alright as it stars Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Christian Slater, Kirsten Dunst, Thandie Newton and all these big names but it really was terrible!

[Tanglewood]

The worst film I've seen was Simpatico (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0174204/).

Excerpt from a review from IMDBBetween watching this movie again and taking a sharp stick in the eye...I'd have to think about it.

[DAC47]

The Sicilian (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093966/)
unintentional laughter at Christopher "Plank" Lambert's "acting" during a massacre sequence.

[Mr.Noisy]

Cabaret - Wife fancied a night in watching a DVD - ended up feeling like hanging myself.

Dead Mans Shoe's - A Reminder of why i never borrow a film off spoon man, he should have holes drilled in his head.

these are about the worst ive seen in the last year.

[Don't panic]

there are many, but one stands out head and shoulders:

"the postman" by/with kevin kostner.

[Consultant]

"James B0nd"
Casino Royale Spoof (1967)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casino_Royale_(1967_film)

After that I usually check for reviews first.



The Bank Job (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0200465/)

The top award for me has to go to Fargo (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0116282/), I went to see it in the dollar theatre at Uni, I almost demanded my dollar back.

I liked Fargo. Critics liked it too
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/fargo/

Same with The Bank Job
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1189844-the_bank_job/

Both have some violent parts, so it seems like you just don't like physically violent films.


Signs was pretty shocking.

Signs was good in the movie theater. I would say half the suspense factor are in the sound, the other parts are dark theater, and big screen.

[Lau]

Dead Mans Shoe's - A Reminder of why i never borrow a film off spoon man, he should have holes drilled in his head.

these are about the worst ive seen in the last year.

This (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0419677/) Dead Man's Shoes? I thought it was excellent. Not easy to watch by any stretch of the imagination but really brilliant for such a disturbingly dark low-budget film.

[calculus]

I haven't seen many films that I would consider to be really really bad but here are some of the disappointments I've had...



The Blair Witch Project - over-hyped and frankly just not very good

The Matrix - incomprehensible rubbish

Iron Man - I endured this piece of nonsense for the sake of The Boy (10) who to be fair loved it. I think he is the target audience.

[Raid]

I liked Fargo. Critics liked it too
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/fargo/

Same with The Bank Job
http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/1189844-the_bank_job/

Both have some violent parts, so it seems like you just don't like physically violent films. Well that reasoning is flawed, just because I have pink sticky note on my desk and don't have tigers stalking me around the office must mean that pink sticky notes keep away tigers right?

I didn't like Fargo because I didn't like the story and the accent was way over done; as for the bank job I don't like movies about incompetent criminals.

[iSaint]

Children of the Corn (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087050/)

The lights went out halfway through. We all cheered.

[biker74]

Children of the Corn (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0087050/)

The lights went out halfway through. We all cheered.

LOL

:D

Controversial one here - Cloverfield, disappointed. Found that its a bit like Marmite, you either love it or hate it.

[tobefirst]

The Protector (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0427954/) was absolutely terrible. Cursed (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0257516/) was also very, very bad.

[TheAnswer]

I thought The Covenant (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475944/) was awful. In fact, if there wasn't so much guy candy in it, I probably would have walked out.

[erickkoch]

Gee, there have been so many.

A few come to mind:

Bloodrayne: I just kept looking at my watch waiting for it to end. In fact, any movie made by Uwe Boll.

The Devils Rejects: Pointless sadism.

Reservoir Dogs: This is one of those Quentin Tarantino "masterpieces" that I just didn't get. It's now out in a "15th Anniverary" edition. Go figure.

I could include a few direct to DVD movies but the list might be too long.

[TSE]

Flight Plan. I remember I went to it on opening night and the theatre was packed. halfway through the movie half the people left and my buddies were sleeping. It sucked so bad. The whole plot is hilarious when it is supposed to be suspenseful. Jodie Foster is a friggin horrible actress in it too.

The whole plot is Jodie Foster has a kid and going to go somewhere on a plane. She loses her kid on the plane and can't find her and goes insane. She finds her kid and goes home safely.

The whole theatre laughed during some of the parts that weren't supposed to be funny.

Oh dear got that movie sucked!

[OutThere]

The Tony Blair Witch Project (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0252060/) (21/100 on the imdb bottom 100). It's kind of a joke of a film. The director put it up on BitTorrent for anyone to download, so I couldn't resist. :D Truly the biggest waste of two hours I think I've ever experienced.

[TEG]

The Nutty Professor II: The Klumps

TEG

[Mousse]

Star Wars Episode I

M.D. Geist. Absolutely THE worst anime ever. EVER. The only worst than watching the original M. D. Geist is watching the English dubbed version.:eek::p

[JML42691]

Meet the Spartans

I always hate these take-off movies, and I only saw this one because my friends had nothing to do and I already saw everything else, biggest waste of money ever.

[notjustjay]

Star Wars Episode I

I fell asleep in the theatre while watching this. Literally.

I really hated "Event Horizon", but it was one of those "I hate this, ugh, but I'm going to keep watching" things. I feel like I've been scarred for life. I imagine it would be much the same if I ever tried watching other similar horror flicks. They're just not my thing.

When I was a kid I really hated "The Princess Bride" (largely because of the torture scenes), but now that I'm older, it's one of my favourite movies.

[BoyBach]

Bad Boys II.
Pearl Harbo(u)r.
300.
The Matrix trilogy.
Wanted.
Shoot 'Em Up.
Star Wars - all of them.
Lock, Stock and a load of mockney bollocks.



You don't mess with the Zohan was pretty stupid but probably not the worst I've seen.

I liked Mark Kermode's review of it: "It's funnier than Steven Spielberg's 'Munich'!" :D

[Shadow]

Hero was a movie I hated. I was only 9 or 10 or so when I watched it so I couldn't keep up with the subtitles and the flashbacks confused me.

The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford was the first movie I walked out on. Maybe our (me + friend) expectations were wrong, we though it was going to be an action film but nooooo :p

I don't know the title of the worst film I've ever seen but it was on Channel 5 (for the UK people here) and it was about a guy who was bitten but instead of turning into "Spider Man" he just turned into a spider instead and started treating humans as flies :rolleyes:

[vendettabass]

Alien Vs Predator

[nplima]

"The King is Alive" http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0208911/

Dogme #4 / Kristian Levring, 2000.

A group of foreign tourists on a bus driving through the vast reaches of the Namibian desert at night. The next morning, they realize their driver is hopelessly lost. Stranded in an abandoned desert mining town, they pass the time enacting Shakespeare’s "King Lear".


----

consider yourselves warned :)

[zap2]

Pretty much everything

I don't under stand how all the films you've seen are the WORST. Then I guess all of them are the best too?

[iowamensan]

One of the only movies I've shut off is Going Overboard. One of Adam Sandler's first and worst movies.

Recent movies that about put me into a coma were December Boys and Driving Lessons.

[liketom]

tank girl
(http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114614/)

Cool as ice (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101615/)

are 2 that come to mind , also i will not watch cos they are plastered posters everywhere and they do my head in :mad:
juno and superbad

[TuffLuffJimmy]

Amelie (boring and pretentious)
Dumb and Dumberer (not funny...)
Son of the Mask (I thought it'd be like the Jim Carrey one!)
Donnie Darko (seriously. Seriously? Pretentious much?)
The Ruins (I saw it twice too! What can I say? My friend works at the theater, I get to see the movies that don't sell well for free)
Ocean's Twelve (What happened!?)
Singing in the Rain (Oh dear god. It's my film teacher's favorite film so I have to watch it every semester.)
National Treasure (The only film that I have walked out of the theater from)

Those are all the ones I can think of that I absolutely hated


EDIT: and of course all Lord of The Rings movies. Peter Jackson is such a joke.

[da2005pizimp]

there are way too many to list, so i'll just say that whenever i have seen "Any given Sunday" something bad has happened. I saw it 3 times and everytime something bad happened, the bad thing is that i thought the movie was pretty good.

[ucfgrad93]

The Blair Witch Project was the worst movie I ever saw.

[n8236]

Mortal Kombat was pretty horrible.

[TEG]

Also,

Shrek III
Superman Returns
Borat - Worst Movie I've Seen, ever.

TEG

[Osarkon]

Be Kind Rewind (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0799934/). dumb as hell, didn't even watch it all the way through.

(it's the only one I can think of at the moment... )

You don't mess with the Zohan was pretty stupid but probably not the worst I've seen.



Got to agree with iBlue.

I didn't think much of Run Fatboy Run either, which is a shame considering it had Simon Pegg and Dylan Moran in it.

[EricNau]

Superbad ...The title was such an understatement.

Harold & Kumar Escape from Guantanamo Bay ...Not funny. At. All.

[remmy]

Run Fat Boy Run was more disappointing than just bad, because of Sean of the Dead and Hot Fuzz before it.

Also agree about Donnie Darko, always fall asleep, so dull.

How to loose a guy in ten days is probably the worst ive paid money for, really terrible, don't know how I got dragged to that rubbish.

[twistedlegato]

Juno



Really? I thought it was pretty cute:D:p

[djellison]

Number 3 : Star Wars Episode I. I walked out and demanded (and got) a refund

Number 2 : Oceans 12. I LOVE Oceans 11 and 13. 12 stank.

Number 1 : Cloverfield. Utter utter bilge from end to end. Shocked that it hasn't been mentioned so far.

[tjcampbell]

In the recent years I have either walked out of or simply stopped watching:

Get Smart
Elizabethtown
The Village
Night at the Museum
Good Luck Chuck
You don't Mess with the Zohan
Strange Wilderness

Also,

Borat - Worst Movie I've Seen, ever.

TEG

Okay, either you are joking or you're from Kasakhstan. Borat is a work of art.

[Much Ado]

The Matrix - incomprehensible rubbish

So you didn't like it because you didn't get it? It's only entry-level philosophy (cogito ergo sum). I thought, and still think, that the first Matrix film is good.

Now, Matrix 3, however, I nominate for worst film.

[bartelby]

So you didn't like it because you didn't get it?


That seems to be the standard reason for people not liking films in this thread so far.

[.Andy]

Mars Attacks and The League of Extraordinary Gentleman. Only two movies I've ever walked out on.

[BoyBach]

Amelie (boring and pretentious)


Sir, I challenge you to a duel! :p

[skyrider007]

Virgin Territory is one of the worst films I've ever seen.

[calculus]

So you didn't like it because you didn't get it?

Yes, that'll be it :rolleyes:

I just have a preference for plot*, acting and atmosphere over cod philosophy and 'special' effects...


*although to be fair I still don't understand why the Sternwood's chauffeur was killed

[erickkoch]

Speed Racer.

Watching it gave me a headache and made me dizzy.

[Big-TDI-Guy]

A movie that started out great with solid acting, dialogue and plot line. Then, someone must have had their medication changed, because it completely fell apart just about mid-way through.

From Dusk Till Dawn

WTF Tarantino? Seriously. How can you have made this AFTER Pulp Fiction?

I don't mind his silly off-the-walls stuff, a.k.a. Kill Bill, but to change genres mid-way through a film? Ugh.

[PowerFullMac]

Epic Movie. WORST FILM EVER!

[skyrider007]

Epic Movie. WORST FILM EVER!

Saw that on Star Movie the other today, I totally agree with you on this. I love Scary Movies tho.

[Schtumple]

Epic Movie. WORST FILM EVER!

Somebody gave me a pirate copy of that, which I passed on, wasn't even worth the DVD it was burnt onto...

Whoever said League of extraordinary men, I fully agree, my dad bought it on DVD, terrible writing and acting...

[Much Ado]

Yes, that'll be it :rolleyes:

Well you did call it "incomprehensible".

According to metacritic, the worst film of recent history is Biodome (http://www.metacritic.com/video/titles/biodome).

[Dagless]

Oh, and 8 Legged Freaks.

A friend told me it was ironic, but it was just fully rubbish.

[Gray-Wolf]

"Robot Jox" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0102800/) Laughable, but thats about all, even with Gary Graham in it.

[toolbox]

Mine is cloverfield - Meh that made me sick

[scotty96LSC]

Dune. All they did was whisper.:mad:

[juanster]

could not stand "Ali" and im a huge fan of Ali and of will smith

[Iscariot]

Anything by Shyamalan, Tarantino, and Cronenberg.

I don't have a problem with Boll or (Paul W.S.) Anderson and the like because everybody should know what to expect when you walk into one of their movies. It's the overrated and gimmicky directors whose movies I truly loath.

[majordude]

Eraserhead. :mad:

http://webzoom.freewebs.com/crookedrain/eraserhead.jpg

Nothing else even close (except maybe Dune).

Hell, the guy looks like that guy, Beakman, from Beakman's World!

[Prof.]

Meet the Spartans and Superhero Movie.:rolleyes:

[Gray-Wolf]

I would have called him, rug head :D

[majordude]

I would have called him, rug head :D

SHAG rug head!

[NC MacGuy]

The absolute worst ever was Pokemon, The First Movie. My kid made me take him and I've hated him ever since.;)

I can't believe Borat was a pick and personally thought it comic genius. Maybe it was better for me because I know a few real life people who Borat could easily have been modeled after. Oh well, to each their own.

Other horrid movie picks are almost anything on LMN.

[majordude]

I can't believe Borat was a pick and personally thought it comic genius.

I agree. Borat is The Phil Hendry Show on film. :cool:

[killerrobot]

Worst I have seen?

1. Saw (I just don't get this genre of gratuitous torture flicks…)


Yeah Saw was just so pathetic you had to laugh your way through it. But I think Jason vs. Freddy has got to be the worst attempt at a horror film ever.

Pretty much everything but specifics-

Juno
Napoleon Dynamite
(the new) War of the Worlds
Any teen comedy or teen horror. They're either horrifically unfunny or so obvious and cliché that it becomes an unintentional comedy.


I agree with you on War of the Worlds and any teen comedy or horror film, however I can't disagree with you more about Napoleon Dynamite or Juno. Both of those were truly original and interesting movies.

Be Kind Rewind (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0799934/). dumb as hell, didn't even watch it all the way through.


That was one of the funniest Jack Black movies ever made. You have to watch it all the way through to approve of the "sweded" method and the message at the end that history is what you record it to be.

With all that said, Amelie is still one of the best foreign films ever made and my nominee for worst film ever would have to be the Banger Sisters or some crap like that -- I've seen so many bad ones they all kind of blend together now.

EDIT:

@NCMacGuy - yeah Borat was great except for when he wrestled naked with his producer. That almost made me heave.
PS - You Australians aren't welcomed here at my fruit stand. Go buy your banana and apple elsewhere. ;)

[EricBrian]

Worst ever films I've seen?

These come to mind right away:
AI, I am Legend, Entrapment, Xanadu,

[iToaster]

I'd have to say:
1) Eragon... total garbage adaptation of a book. I know that film adaptations are always worse but this was too bad.
2) Attack of the Killer Tomatoes! (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080391/)... but it was good for a laugh.

Other than those, nothing else comes to mind at the moment.

[PowerFullMac]

Meet the Spartans and Superhero Movie.:rolleyes:

Superhero Movie wasent actually all that bad, I got a few laughs from it, and they even parodied Vista and made fun of the Office paperclip!

[Jaffa Cake]

To this day I can't believe I was made to sit through Titanic. A terrible film.

I also managed to ruin the ending for a friend of mine when I mentioned the ship sinking – she didn't know that happened. :D

[PowerFullMac]

To this day I can't believe I was made to sit through Titanic. A terrible film.

I also managed to ruin the ending for a friend of mine when I mentioned the ship sinking – she didn't know that happened. :D

I agree, in fact, here is the whole thing in 5 seconds! (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OuSdU8tbcHY)

Basically sums it all up without wasting a hour of your life :p

[yetanotherdave]

worst films, in no particular order
hot fuzz
open water
toys
moulin rouge
anchorman
marie antoinette
Talladega Nights
any film with Will Ferrell
troy

[R.Youden]

Coneheads

Garfield - they even made a sequel!

[sir Mudkip]

Finding nemo.....hoooooooooly crap that was bad

[Markleshark]

Troy.

Worst. Film. Ever.

[Mark-Mac-Attack]

My other half says "The Hulk"

I say...

Big let down...

Hostel

and that horror film, the British one... where the foot is in the fridge. Any ideas?:o

sorry i tend to forget the names of bad films i watch.

Mark.

[Dagless]

I agree with you on War of the Worlds and any teen comedy or horror film, however I can't disagree with you more about Napoleon Dynamite or Juno. Both of those were truly original and interesting movies.

For me an interesting film is one that I can't predict the ending so early on. Juno. It was painfully obvious that the older couple weren't going to stay together and that there was going to be a conflict on whether Juno was going to keep the baby in the end. Terribly flawed and predictable.
Also the way they tried to highlight trinket items and themes (that phone, that music, the furniture and styling) was so obvious.

Napoleon Dynamite? Just mindless, aimless, plotless drivel that played out more like a Day in the Life style TV documentary.

[calculus]

Amelie is still one of the best foreign films ever made

Not in France though ;)

Seriously though, it would be on my list of favourite films...

[iStress]

Mine is cloverfield - Meh that made me sick

Yes, I couldn't believe I wasted money watching that overly-hyped POS.

Also, I could not stand Meet The Spartans....urgh

[Dagless]

and that horror film, the British one... where the foot is in the fridge. Any ideas?:o

sorry i tend to forget the names of bad films i watch.

Mark.

Severance?
It had the foundations to be a good little film but it kind of broke when they went down the ol' Hollywood horror path. Only found out after watching it that it was supposed to be a comedy too, ouch.

[juanster]

yes, hotfuzz has got to be one of the worst modern day torture tools, along with Bad Santa, reno 911 was bad too... hmmmmcan t think of more right now...

[chaosbunny]

Chicago... and most stuff with Cathrine Zeta-Jones in it. She simply can't act, whenever I saw her in a movie I didn't see a character, I saw a person trying to be that character. I chose Chicago because I have never watched the Oscars again after she won one.

That Marie Antoinette film by Sophia Coppola was pretty bad too, a big disappointment after Lost in Translation.

Most "dogma"-films... just because it's boring it isn't art.

[Aeolius]

Any movie that begins with "Andy Warhol", especially Andy Warhol's Dracula and Andy Warhol's Frankenstein.

Mind you, as "The Abominable Dr Phibes" is my favorite movie, people rarely listen to my movie reviews. ;)

[cantthinkofone]

I can't believe the few of you that said 300, Saw, and Ocean's 12.

300 was a excellent movie. I'm thinking about going out and renting it now.

The first saw was the only good one. The rest were just to get some money. The film was made on a budget of what? 16k i think? I thought it was a very good suspense story. The ending made my mouth drop.

Ocean's 12 is my favorite of the Ocean's series. Ocean's 13 was horrible. The only part i liked was when they go down to mexico. Those parts get me every time.


For me the worst film i have ever seen was "The Happening". About half way thru the movie i really was convinced we were on hidden camera tv show.

I am no film critic but mother of God! To me it seems like the actors were trying to do their worst.

The best part of the movie was when that US Army MP guy shows up and sombody says "It's the Army! We're saved!". About half the audience started laughing.....We were at a movie theater not 1 mile away from Ft. Wood :p, guess it was a bunch of Marines.

[Cave Man]

Starship Troopers 2. Awful, simply awful. Disrespectful to RH, too.

[LeoFio]

The Strangers...entire plot could have been played out in 5 mins, but it turns into an hour and a half ordeal

[djellison]

Ocean's 12 is my favorite of the Ocean's series. Ocean's 13 was horrible. The only part i liked was when they go down to mexico. Those parts get me every time.

HERESY. I sentence you to 30 minutes in an enclosed space with Bruiser.

[Melrose]

Chicago... and most stuff with Cathrine Zeta-Jones in it. She simply can't act, whenever I saw her in a movie I didn't see a character, I saw a person trying to be that character. I chose Chicago because I have never watched the Oscars again after she won one.


We think alike. I think she's the reason The Terminal flopped: Tom Hanks already proved in Castaway that he's more than capable of carrying a film solely on his own, and with a backup actor like Stanley Tucci, the fake/silly/hip-woman/'Gee Ain't I Wonderful' attitude that Zeta-Jones brought to the movie was awful. I think she killed it.

[Lord Blackadder]

Worst film I ever saw in theaters:

Freddy Got Fingered

Worst film of any kind I've seen:

Star Wars Holiday Special. It is literally no exaggeration to say that most porn films have better production values and writing than this colossal turd.

[Shaun.P]

The most recent "Miami Vice". Drivel!

[plasticparadox]

1. Showgirls (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114436/)

2. Cool as Ice (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0101615/)

3. The Hottie and the Nottie (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0804492/)

3. The Hottie and the Nottie (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0804492/)

[da2005pizimp]

ok just saw it and have to post it, doomsday dumbest movie i have ever seen i want the 2 hours of my life back :mad:

[Daveman Deluxe]

Mallrats and Analyze This were by far the worst films that I have ever seen. Analyze This was so bad that I stopped watching it halfway through.

Other favourites on my least-favourite list: Meet the Parents, Star Wars Episode II: Attack of the Clones, and Where the Heart Is. I refuse to watch Zoolander; the snippets that I've seen were plenty. I'm also very grateful that I no longer have a girlfriend who wants me to see Top Gun.

[donga]

and most stuff with Cathrine Zeta-Jones in it.

...she's hot though. i watch her movies to see her, not actual stories and plots.


I'm also very grateful that I no longer have a girlfriend who wants me to see Top Gun.

dude, top gun is an all time classic. who are you?

[gnikcjack]

Normally I'm down for watching any movie even remotely associated with Steven Segal, so when they had an all day marathon of his movies you better believe I parked myself in front of a tv for 10 straight hours. It was all going great until "Out for a Kill" started playing... that is, without a doubt, the worst movie I've ever seen. Actually, it's in a 3-way tie with "Date Movie" and "Serving Sara". Of all the God-awful things humans have done to one another over the past 30,000 years, the production of these 3 movies holds a solid spot in the top 10.

Lets add one to your list that is even WORSE. Executive Decision - a movie so bad - Steve appears to have quit - as he was out of the movie he "starred in" about 7 minutes into the film.

Russel: "we're not gonna make it"
Steve: "you are"
Steve dies as the F117 rips off the passenger jet and disintegrates.
Oh the humanity.

Ecks vs Sever. I argued against it but was out-voted.

[chaosbunny]

...she's hot though. i watch her movies to see her, not actual stories and plots.

Of course she is hot, BUT there are enough actresses out there who are hot AND can act. :)

[madoka]

You guys can't be serious. Outside of Cool as Ice and the Hottie and the Nottie, nothing can come close to Battlefield Earth. It had cavemen become ace fighter pilots in 1,000 year old harrier jump jets after an hour or so of flight simulator training! It was so bad, the scientologists had roaming van loads of scientologists attend screenings to make it look more successful. It still bankrupted the production company. John Travolta described it as "like Star Wars, only better." Jon Stewart described it as "a cross between Star Wars and the smell of ass." It was released in 2000 and the NY Times wrote, "It may be a bit early to make such judgments, but Battlefield Earth may well turn out to be the worst movie of this century." It swept the Razzies that year winning 7 of them.

If some of you guys think the Matrix or Star Wars, or LOTR are the worst movies you've ever seen, then you're in for a rude awakening.

[Tellegrand]

I'd have to go into serious contemplation to rank the worst I've seen.. but here are some that were major letdowns:

Wanted: only thing good were the special effects
Moulon Rouge: painful.. just painful
Terminator 3: I survived it...knowing that there might be redemption ahead with #4
Alien 3: Are you kidding me?

[Les Kern]

I can think of hundreds.

Lately:

Bourne Ultimatum. Whomever decided that using hand-held cameras for two ********* hours needs to be put in prison, then shot, then put back in prison. Almost threw up in the aisle. Twice.
It's the reason I refused to go to Cloverfield. But that's fine, heard it was trash anyway.

But of all time?
While movies like Plan 9 and Attack of the Killer Tomatoes are campy and kind of fun to watch, the all-time worst movie has to be "Santa Claus Conquers the Martians".

Agree.

I'm also very grateful that I no longer have a girlfriend who wants me to see Top Gun.
That's an military aviator's classic movie.

Starship Troopers 2. Awful, simply awful. Disrespectful to RH, too.

Just got around around to reading some of the other posts.

Starship Troopers 2 ???!!!!

Are you kidding me?

I would have thought the ghost of RH would have leapt from the bowels of the earth to devour the souls of the idiots responsible for the abomination that was the first Starship Troopers movie! And now you're saying someone made a sequel?

[NC MacGuy]

I'm surprised I haven't seen Anaconda mentioned. That was pretty bad even though special effects were amazing.:rolleyes:

The Star Wars & Star Trek films.

:eek: Duck and cover, my man

[benzslrpee]

anything with Will Ferrel in it. i just can't find that guy amusing or funny, i mean if you take away the millions, and the movie deals he's just another pathetic grown ass man who can't seem to let go of his highschool/college years.

eternal sunshine of the spotless mind, donnie darko, asassination of jesse james, the proposition,...or any stream-of-conscious type of movies that really have no point to them except to be confusing. wtf :confused: then the people who pretend to like by spouting how it was paying homage to blah blah blah, the foreshadowing, the hidden social angst. it's like this genre is the baskin robins of crap, 31 flavors of suckage for you to try.

pirates 2 & 3 - if it wasn't for Depp i'd have walked out

dragonwars - it was crap, in fact, so crappy that i just threw the dvd away in 15 min

27 dresses - watched it with the gf and i came away with a lot less respect for women...if that is how they really are :p

any of the Dreamworks animation features (except kungfu panda and the first shrek) - the rest were abominations, i was amazed at how much suckage they could cram into film

^^ I didn't think Pearl Harbor was that bad... Kate was cute enough (well, not really worth three hours though)

Lady in the Water was awful. It was a waste of Paul Giamatti's talent. I expected mre from Shyamalanamyanalan...

Stephen Fry is class even more so with Hugh Laurie (Ever seen A Bit of Fry and Laurie? It is funny as hell).

Fargo was great for what it was, but the most overrated movie I can think of.

Dune was terrible for me, and worse for those who read the book.

I didn't like some aspects of the Lord of the Rings series and thought they could have been edited down.

The first three Stars Wars movies were better than the latter groups of Star Wars movies.

Catwoman was panned, but I didn't think it was that bad.

[skunk]

I can't believe you saw that.I couldn't believe it either. My internets must've been down.

I can't remember why, but I watched "The Ant Bully" once. Once was enough. Most kids movies are very predictable, but this one doesn't even give an effort to be a little different.

2012 was utterly insulting. Downloaded this and couldn't get through it-- just deleted it after watching it for 30-40 minutes. John Cusack is extremely annoying, I suppose now that the ever-so-annoying Nicholas Cage's head has been lopped off, the Hollywood monster has replaced it with Cusack's...

Bruno
Armageddon

1. Showgirls (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114436/)

Okay, I'm leaving out too-obscure-to-count films (I'm talking to you, Ator: Quest for the Mighty Sword).

My list of awful films:

Leonard Part 6. Serious, Cosby, you were already famous when you made this! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leonard_Part_6

Sin City. Yeah, I know, it's edgy. But Frank Miller has serious problems with his contempt for women.

Meet Joe Black. Hell, I wanted to die at the end of it! (which was about 2 years after the film started)

Tomcats. I can't remember why I saw this.

Twilight. Because what's better than teaching teen girls it's sexy to be in controlling relationships with 100-year-olds?

Any movie that features an action star taking care of little kids.

White Chicks.

40 days and 40 nights. Ha ha--rape jokes!

Mac and Me.

[Melrose]

Any movie that features an action star taking care of little kids.

Hey, the Rock looks Awe-some with little pink fairy wings!

Worst movie had to be The Wizard of Speed and Time. My dad picked it for the family when I was little. To this day, it stands as the Gold Standard by which we judge other horrible films. I know we're seen our share of them, but that one springs to mind immediately.

...and 40 Days wasn't really that bad. There were some funny bits in it.

[Ttownbeast]

Avatar....no haven't seen it......But the trailers make me vomit...**** the fanboys.

I never saw it in theaters, but I rented it and watched the whole thing. You know how you can't take your eyes off a bad accident on the side of the road? It was kinda like that. It was terrible, but curiosity got the best of me and I just wanted to see how worse it could get. I thought it reached its low point at the beginning when Tom Green is jerking off the horse. But it gets worse :rolleyes:

[Ambrose Chapel]

hudson hawk. it was the only movie i saw in a theatre that was just awful. i didn't walk out, but it was a BAD movie.

[Raid]

I know I've posted in here before, but I have an update to the list:
Extract (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1225822/) - I rented this thinking how much I liked Office Space, but 45 minutes into the film I realized I hadn't laughed ...the characters were cartoonish and simple. I stopped the DVD at that point and watched something else.

[Ttownbeast]

At least you saw the movie the other guy did not.He was judging the movie with the trailers ? I have'nt seen it either.

I judge so by the plot and the trailer, it's always a good plan to look into the story line reading the directors synopsis ignoring the rave reviews and hype before bothering to spend a dime on a disappointment. Those are the best selling points for a product. Do you go to the auto lot and pick out the pretty shiny red convertible based on first impression? No you research what the long term costs are going to be including mileage, maintenance and insurance. The same goes for entertainment you don't just look at the picture on the cover of the book that can be misleading--you open it and read a couple of pages including the authors notes to get an idea where the story is going. If it doesn't go anywhere save yourself the trouble.

Basically the plot is overused and weak for Avatar it is a rehash of the old cowboys and indians kind of story where progress is pushing out the natives only it's swamped in special effects. Same basic plot as a movie like Enemy Mine where towards the end the same kind of plot unfolds and the hero Dennis Quade sides with the aliens being enslaved by a mining company, Little Big Man where Dustin Hoffman joins the tribe and leads Custer into the ambush, or Dances with Wolves where Costner joins the Sioux tribe when the US army start opening settlement of the west. Avatar based on these factors is dull to say the least--just a rewrite with lots of shiny sparkly effects.

No you research what the long term costs are going to be including mileage, maintenance and insurance. The same goes for entertainment you don't just look at the picture on the cover of the book that can be misleading--you open it and read a couple of pages including the authors notes to get an idea where the story is going. If it doesn't go anywhere save yourself the trouble.

Basically the plot is overused and weak for Avatar it is a rehash of the old cowboys and indians kind of story where progress is pushing out the natives only it's swamped in special effects. Same basic plot as a movie like Enemy Mine where towards the end the same kind of plot unfolds and the hero Dennis Quade sides with the aliens being enslaved by a mining company, Little Big Man where Dustin Hoffman joins the tribe and leads Custer into the ambush, or Dances with Wolves where Costner joins the Sioux tribe when the US army start opening settlement of the west. Avatar based on these factors is dull to say the least--just a rewrite with lots of shiny sparkly effects.

I agree 100%. One film you mention that I really liked and haven't seen in a very long time, Little Big Man.... What a great movie IMHO. The story kind of reminds me of Gump but set back in the "western" era.

I've only ever walked out of 2 films:

"First Knight" with Sean Connery et al and "Paris is Burning". The absolute worst movies EVER!! IMO

What was wrong with Paris is Burning? That was a damn good doc on a subject most people are unfamiliar with. Or was it the subject matter that bothered you? If that's the case, it has nothing to do with it being a good or bad film. List of awards for that film:

* 1990 IDA Award, International Documentary Association
* 1990 LAFCA Award Best Documentary, Los Angeles Film Critics Association
* 1990 Audience Award Best Documentary, San Francisco International Lesbian & Gay Film Festival
* 1991 Grand Jury Prize Documentary, Sundance Film Festival
* 1991 Teddy Award for Best Documentary Film, Berlin International Film Festival
* 1991 Boston Society of Film Critics Awards (BSFC) Best Documentary
* 1991 the very first Open Palm Award, now called Breakthrough Director Award Gotham Awards
* 1991 NYFCC Award Best Documentary, New York Film Critics Circle Awards
* 1991 Golden Space Needle Award Best Documentary, Seattle International Film Festival
* 1992 Outstanding Film (Documentary), GLAAD Media Awards
* 1992 NSFC Award Best Documentary, National Society of Film Critics

You don't get an awards list like that because your film is bad.

I was living as a gay man at the time and went with about a dozen gay friends, several of whom were drag queens. I thought it was dreadful and full of whiners and I couldn't stand it. Trust me, it wasn't the subject matter itself.

Then it was indeed the subject matter, especially if you didn't like the subjects. What are you "living as" now?

[arkitect]

What are you "living as" now?
I was curious about that as well…

:confused:

[leekohler]

:confused:

I know. I shouldn't even have asked...:eek: Looks like we won't know anytime soon...

[MultiM]

Then it was indeed the subject matter, especially if you didn't like the subjects. What are you "living as" now?

It wasn't the subject matter, it was the whining and "I'm such a victim!" nonsense. I'm now happily married, to a woman, and sorry, but I had to do some work.

[paddy]

Might get a bit of flak for this, but anything with Sandra Bullock in it! :eek:

[leekohler]

That's interesting. Again- you didn't like the people in the film, hence the subjects of the film, thus the subject matter. And really, you haven't walked in those people's shoes. I found a lot of them to be very strong and inspiring. But that's just me.

So did you get "cured", or are you bisexual? ;) The devil would be wearing ice skates before I ever jumped the fence.

Might get a bit of flak for this, but anything with Sandra Bullock in it! :eek:

Won't come from me. She's terrible.

[skunk]

That's interesting. So did you get "cured", or are you bisexual?The answer is obvious. You don't really need to ask, though you may want to. I can hardly bear the suspense...

[leekohler]

The answer is obvious. You don't really need to ask, though you may want to. I can hardly bear the suspense...

I don't think it's obvious. I'm not familiar with MultiM. And I don't really care what other people do, as long as they don't try to hurt anybody else, or try to force others to do the same as they did.

[skunk]

I don't think it's obvious.You're right, I shouldn't prejudge. :o

[leekohler]

You're right, I shouldn't prejudge. :o

Well, I can be terribly judgmental, as some posters here know. ;)

I think that two of the most crappy films I ever seen was:

* Druids or Vercingétorix (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0199481/). One of that awful movies with Christopher Lambert.
* ExistenZ (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120907/). A weird "sci-fi?" film.

"Ghost Rider" - (Nicholas Cage)

Worst. Film. Ever.

[Ttownbeast]

I agree 100%. One film you mention that I really liked and haven't seen in a very long time, Little Big Man.... What a great movie IMHO. The story kind of reminds me of Gump but set back in the "western" era.
Little Big Man was a fascinating perspective on General Custers last stand from the eyes of an old man telling his version of history, Little big man used a plot tool similar to that in Young Guns II (years before even young guns 1 was made) having the old man(main character) narrate the tale....of course when it came to Billy the Kid the plot tool was thought to possibly be based in some truth--but no one ever was able to verify old "Brushy Bills" story for certainty. Gump was interesting and I can see where there might be some parallels as well in the rythm of the stories.

[yojitani]

To Wong Foo Thanks for Everything remains the only movie I've ever walked out of. I can't even remember why now.

One of the worst movies I've seen from beginning to end has got to be the most recent Indiana Jones. The worst movies I've ever seen but never completed are the ones that have Ben Stiller and/or Owen Wilson in them. If those guys can act they need new agents.

[BlackiBook]

Cloverfield was just plain horrible!!

[StruckANerve]

Recently was Forbidden Kingdom with Jackie Chan and Jet Li. What a pile of crap that was.

And for the record, Batman & Robin, with Arnold as Mr. Freeze is the worst movie of all time.

[Melrose]

There again, I liked The Forbidden Kingdom. It was a good adventure story. Just basic fun. It wasn't the best by a long shot but didn't have any glaring flaws.

[partyBoy]

Legends of the fall = boring

[StruckANerve]

Jet Li pee'd on Jackie Chan's face. That was where I turned it off.

[TheVidEditor]

I don't believe Jaws: The Revenge was mentioned. Numerous plot holes, not to mention an incredibly fake looking "shark". You'd think that twelve years after the first Jaws film, there would have at least been some improvement in the quality of animatronic rigs. :apple:

[suburbia]

Leave the "happily married to a woman" guy alone!:D

I didn't think the people in Paris Is Burning were whiny or self-victimizing: They were shunned, marginalized and outcasts because they were gay and created a community for themselves that would later inspire music, art and fashion. Almost all of the individuals featured in the doc have passed on. But that's where Balls and Vogue all began.

BTW, has anyone seen the new generation of Vogue, called New Vogue? These guys (and girls) are supernatural with their moves!

I agree. I thought it was great.

I also have to add Coraline to weird and freaky especially for a PG Movie.

[yg17]

Speaking of worst films, are those all that make it onto the premium movie channels? I have all the HBOs, Cinemaxes, Showtimes, etc, and if there is one thing worth watching on any of them I consider myself lucky.

[Ke1ington]

"Meet the Spartans" is the one movie that I've gotten up and walked out of a theater. Absolutely ridiculous.

Edit: After reading through the first eight pages of this thread, I had to come back here and remove any objections I had to earlier posts. It is obviously all about taste and based on opinion, but if I argued every single time a good movie showed up on this list, well... you get it.

[XnavxeMiyyep]

Yesterday I saw a Hong Kong movie called Bad Blood. It had some decent choreography, but the plot was really really terrible.

I try to avoid obviously terrible movies, but I had the misfortune of being brought with my friends to see John Tucker Must Die, Saw, and Hostel.

I usually like funny B Movies, but some particularly bad ones that I didn't enjoy at all include: Santa Claus Conquers the Martians and Blackula.

Superman returns was at least better for a restart than the origional sequels 3 and 4 it replaced I thought the whole he the lois' baby daddy plot twist was a bit too much though LOL

Mars Attacks! So awful it's quite good really :confused:

I was at the cinema many years ago when they had supporting films and the worst one I saw was Some Kind of a Nut with Dick Van Dyke. Unfortunately it was on before the film I had paid to see but I was squirming in my seat with boredom.

The animated version of Lord of the Rings. Walked out on that one.

[Mr. McMac]

The Happening. I can't think of anything worse

[Mr. McMac]

opps double post

[leekohler]

The Happening. I can't think of anything worse

The Spirit.

The Spirit was much worse than The Happening.

[charlesbronsen]

That is the most entertaining "bad": film ever made. It's a classic and I can quote most of it. I have the VIP Edition. The movie is cheese at it's best. Truly one of my favorite films of all time. Nothing makes me laugh more than that movie. :)

http://www.amazon.com/Showgirls-VIP-Limited-Elizabeth-Berkley/dp/B00020X88O/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1264380105&sr=1-3

OMG I forgot all about this piece of tosh. The best is when she pukes after getting punched in the face, where did that come from? I'll never forget the look on my buddies face when we watched that scene. Thx for the memories:D

I'm glad I didn't see Spirit then!

I love that when she pukes! WTF? What the hell was that?

And you're welcome. Showgirls is a classic piece of trash. I will love it forever.

[MacVixen]

The Core - terrible, awful movie

another movie a few years ago that I can't remember the name of... Red Dawn? Red Planet? Red something. whatever it was, it was one of the only movies I ever wanted to get up and walk out of the theatre. my friend, however, loved it :rolleyes:

[charlesbronsen]

I love that when she pukes! WTF? What the hell as that?

And you're welcome. Showgirls is a classic piece of trash. I will love it forever.

I want to watch this movie now..... Damn you:mad:

The Crow 2. Actually walked out of the movie. It was that bad.

Lets not forget about the famous movie, "SSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS"

[rhett7660]
