Movies you can't stand

[Creedence]

Well I guess it'd have to be Napoleon Dynamite since I walked out of the theater within the first twenty minutes... that movie is terrible.

Uneccessary (and usually inferior) remakes of classic 4 or 5 star movies!
Uneccessary (and usually inferior) big screen verisons of Classic TV shows!

Eddie Murphy's "Sanitized Family Films"
Steve Martin's "Sanitized Family Films"

Also, the overuse of "hand-held" movie cameras in so many movies and TV shows. Meant to give a film or TV show a "realsitic" or "documentary" look, it is a great tool, but it is being far too often. I hope this "trend" subsides and it used only for certain scenes.

For example, just watch the greatest action sequence ever filmed...the chariot race in Ben-Hur (1959). No hand-helds used in those sequences. The actors, the horses, the chariots supply the excitement...not a herky-jerky camera. Trust me, if they ever remade it today, hand-helds would be very prevelant. Come to think of it, they could not afford to remake it nowadays...it would just be CGI!!!

The Entire Scream Series, I Know What You Did Last Summer and the sequels, romantic comedies(so very formulaic), Titanic, The Blair Witch Project to name a few

[tslust]

The Punnisher War Zone First of all, peoole do not explode when they get shot! Secondly, fully automatic firearms have something called recoil, which causes the barrel to rise; (I guess hollyweird forgot about that) therefore it is physically impossible to hold an automatic in each hand and fire a full magazine and have no barrel elevation.

Surprising how many people don't like Titanic. I'm not a big fan or anything, but I thought it was an okay movie. Everyone's different though, I suppose that's what makes things interesting

Hate to be a boor, but it seems to me that all you are really qualified to say is that the first 20 minutes are terrible.

Hi there.

Bad movies you say?

How about:

Earth vs the spider.
Metal man.
War of the planets
Catwoman - with Halle Barrie.
Dirty - with Cuba Goodings jr.


The first 3 are with unknowns, which are still unknown, no surprize there if you see the movie but don't, waist of time, money and plastic (the dvd) etc.

Catwoman - ok acting at best from a good actress, the cat outfit sucked big time, the whole thing was done half ass.

Dirty - a whole lot of swaring the whole movie long very little content otherwise, feels like some alzeimer cop trying to tell a story of his cop career and mixed everything up.

One would expect much better from actors of Cubas and Halle's calibre.

Agreed, except for "The Quiet Man". Of course, Mareen O'hara helped this film a lot.

Well, Zocco, I cannot really "hate" you for mearly having an opinion. And, I can understand how people might get a "stereotyped" impression of "The Duke" as an actor and of his films. One thing about John Wayne (the actor) was he was always the consumate professional, always knew his lines and, knew where everyone and everything was supposed to be on a film set.

As "randolph" pointed out, he was great in "The Quiet Man". I must point out a few more of his best films, as well. "The Searchers", "True Grit", "The Shootist", "The Man Who Shot Liberty Valence", "Red River", "El Dorado", "Rio Bravo", "The Horse Soldiers" and of course "Stagecoach" are great examples of his best work.

The worst movie's ever made are:

Freejack (1992) Staring Emilio Estevez, Mick Jagger (The worst actor in the world ever), Rene Russo & Anthony Hopkins .

Bride of Chucky (1998)

The hours I spent watching these two poor flims is time I can't get back.

I liked the "Scary Movie" series. I got quite a few good laughs from them.

[johndowe]

Hi there.

I didn't found it too stupid, predictable and unimaginative.

But i know some people like bad movies, the three in my previous post:

Metal man, earth vs the spider and war of the planets have a following.
