"James B0nd"
Casino Royale Spoof (1967)

After that I usually check for reviews first.
I liked Fargo. Critics liked it too

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 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.

This 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.
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.
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.
LOL
Controversial one here - Cloverfield, disappointed. Found that its a bit like Marmite, you either love it or hate it.
I thought The Covenant was awful. In fact, if there wasn't so much guy candy in it, I probably would have walked out.
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.

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!

The Tony Blair Witch Project (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. Truly the biggest waste of two hours I think I've ever experienced.

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.

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

"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 Shakespeares "King Lear".

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?
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.
