I Demand My Money Back!! The Worst Films You've Ever Had To Sit Through

Good ole Jezza.....he certainly knows how to pick 'em. I've a feeling he's got a touch of the "Michael Caines" when agreeing to perform in certain films.....there must be a new house/car/boat to buy, what else would explain the downright awful "The Time Machine"......nice wig it has to be said though.
 
Agreed, incredibly boring with huge plot holes. I actually asked my friend if she wanted to leave, she said she would, but there was only 20 minutes left (and she usually flat out refuses to walk out of films)
 
Personally I thought that Jaws 4 was worse. What now, the Shark is intelligent enough to track Ma Brodie to the Caribbean? Yeah, course it fcuking is.....:rolleyes:

Also, Battlefield Earth. I'd rather gouge out my own eyes than watch another minute of that drivel.
 
Talking of films I nearly walked out of: The Passion of the Christ!!!

When I did go and see it several people DID walk out...

Simply cannot understand WHY ON EARTH ANYONE would think this would turn people on to Christianity???!

If U want to go to see a film about a man who gets the absolute sh*t kicked out of him for ah hour and a half - this is the film for you!

I know the argument is; But he suffered for yooooouuuu, see how much he suffered for your sake...

But this was soooooo OTT, the focus was RELENTLESSLY on torture and physical suffering that I thought: This is just sick. :eek:These people are getting some kind of sado-masocistic kick out of this, using a religious icon as cannon fodder!!!
:eek:
Utterly sick!!!

(Im sorry If Ive offended anyone with this post- none intended. )

(Im a Christian by the way in case anyone starts on the "he suffered for yooooouuuuu" bandwagon...)
 
Of all the things that were wrong with Alexander I can't believe everyone keeps coming up with Colin Farrell's accent. The film was plagued with issues, mainly bad dialogue, poor editing and a confusing timeline (2 of which have been resolved somewhat in later versions). What accent should CF have? A Macedonian accent? What does that sound like? At least they kept it simple by not asking him to act and put on a dodgy Bulkan accent. In any case, if his accent is an issue, what about Sean Connery's accent in so many films? Does that make them bad films?

My wife has just suggested Evolution!
 
Cloverfield - WTF? The 1st 20/30 mins were okay then it was just like 'when is this going to end?!?!?!?' Nobody cares about these people. That movie was in Empires list of 500 greatest movies so I thought I should give it a try.
 
I went to see "Disaster Movie" today. It was a completely different combination of "disaster" and "movie" than I was expecting. I very nearly walked out in the middle of it; I kept on telling myself "I'll give it another 10 minutes, just in case something actually happens". I was actually expecting it to be a proper spoof with a proper story, like "Airplane", but in fact it was a load of disjointed puerile in-jokes about other films.
 
Due to the subjectivity of films, it's hard to rank one persons definition of "worst film" over another.

I'm sure some people will actually like some of the films you've listed. Does that mean they're wrong? Of course it doesn't, it just makes them different.
 
Life Acquatic of Steve Zissou, such a disappointment as loved the other movies, but found this indulgent and crap, actually walked out of the cinema.

A History of Violence, first half was fantastic, the end was just such a copout, and what could have been a real psychological thriller degenerated into a B horror movie IMO. I get the whole pretest of us being more comfortable with some images of violence than others etc, but I felt it could have been really amazing, and it wasn't. It was one of those that all the critics raved about and I've never meet a person in real life who liked it.
 
I did think the Dark Knight was not as good as Batman Begins but I don't think Worst Film Ever is justified, I can think of a hundred films at least that I like less.

Oh and I hated Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind, me and my friend decided to go for a meal afterwarRAB before we went in, and all I thought for about an hour was: Bloody finish so I can have my chinese!!!!

Oh and the DIRE Superbad!!
 
Jeez what a list! I would not even dare waste money on a dvd rental let alone a cinema ticket but I was persuaded to go to see Godfather 3. O.M.G. I don't even remember why it was so boring but the most distinctive aspect I do always recall was one of my frienRAB falling asleep and then snoring loudly in the quiet dead cinema :sleep:, and the reason why the cinema was quiet and dead became apparent when the film had ended and we got up to go, everyone else had fallen asleep as well. No exaggeration. :yawn:
 
You seem pretty sound with your movies Lex, so I'll scrap buying it and rent it instead I think. Thanks for the warning. I really don't like the sound of the schmaltz they've littered it with.
