Talking crap movies

what are the crappiest films you have seen?

being a horror fan, i get to see more than my fair share of films that shouldnt have been made. a couple that spring to mind are;

blair witch project - an exercise in hype, and that was about it. scariest film since the exorcist my ****

alien v predator - i am still trying to work out how to get that 90 minutes of my life returned to me. crap photography, crap acting and one of the worst scrpits EVER, and an ending that has to be seen to be believed. truly awful.

finally, anything that comes under the generic heading 'romantic comedy'. neither romantic nor funny. usually starring 'actors' such as meg ryan, julia roberts and that soppy english drip, hugh grant. they should all be lined up and shot.

have to agree with this - that movie was the biggest disappointment

i went along to it expecting it to be the best movie, and for it to scare me beyond my belief, but it turned out to bore me beyond belief instead... out: :

Lately the movies i've been watching are all good, maybe i'm an expert at picking movies I dunno . I hired out iRobot thinking it might be a bit of a dissapointment but it was quite good. Probably the crappest movie that i've seen in the last few months was 28 days later and that wasn't exactly terrible.

I know the best movie by far that i've seen lately is Team America: Street Police.

Alien Vs Predator just toally ruined what was both a very marketable and profitable bunch of movies. I liked both Predator movies alot, Alien was ok, got bit corny, but still believeable, now its just total crap.

Also think, Thunderbirds and Lost in Space were total f**K ups.

There is only one movie i HATE.
A french film called Irreversible.
I wont watch that movie again.
Had to see it once due to hype and sensors banning it.
Filming the segments in reverse chronological order served no purpose at all in this movie.
In a movie like Memento that has a similar reverse order thing, there is apoint as the guy has memory issues and as things come to him, they come to you.

I didn't mind the blair witch project. Those who expected a LOT just got caught up in the media hype. It was a LOW budget scare movie made specifically for fans of that genre. It wasn't intended to be huge and i doubt the film makers were the ones who said it was going to be scarier than the exorcist. (of which i think is a funny movie)

It would be Moulin Rouge. I was on back shift at work & boy i'm still drity that the supervisor wouldn't turn it off & he didn't think any better of it either. It has to be the biggest waste of money every put onto film.

Tears of the Sun starring Bruce Willis. Jesus christ, that movie was so god damn boring.

One of the best movies I've seen lately is Phone Booth. Excellent film.

I cant believe Farce & the Ficticious hasnt been mentioned yet....

The worst movie I've ever seen is Barb Wire with Pam Anderson.
The best Ive seen recently would have to be Chronicles Of Riddick and Eurotrip Uncut.

By far Titanic.......that was an awful waste of 3hrs and 7(?) Acadamy Awards. I know some people who love in and have seen it in excess of 10 times. I almost shot myelf after the 1st time.

Garfield was pretty awful too (although I'm a fan of the cartoon strip)

Ahh, so many shockers, i'll just go for a couple.

Garfield was a terrible disappointment.

My Boss's Daughter was so predictable I was calling the jokes up to 30 minutes before they actually happened, and they were less funny than I thought possible.

Love actually. Nothing more needs to be said, ever, about this movie.


As for good recent movies, I loved Kill Bill 1&2.

Street Fighter - the movie with Jean Claude Van P00f and Kylie Minogue, based on the classic computer game. I am considering either legal or militant action against the creditors and marketers of that rectal-grade piece of excrement.

hahaha The Thin Red Line, I lost it when the guy who was narating the movie kept on going on about "What war does to us" AFTER the Japs killed him.

As for Battlefield earth, I read a bunch of books as a kid (The Tripod Trilogy IIRC), it was the biggest rip off of them ever.
