What's the worst movie you've seen recently?

[candle_bright]

For some reason, I decided to watch Napoleon Dynamite last night.

Just terrible. The main characters were so dull, and the movie wasn't even close to funny. I found it to be a depressing, odd collection of characters.

What are some of your recent "shouldn't have bothered" films?

[Radical Activist]

3. Sideways

God that movie SUCKED ASS!

[candle_bright]

5. Whoa, really?

That's been on my list. What made it suck? :(

[Radical Activist]

14. It was kind of like a big chill babyboomer movie

Except it didn't have good music, was boring and slow, the characters led sad pathetic lives and were unlikeable. It might appeal to middle aged people who have never accomplished their dreams in life and use alcohol as an escape, but I couldn't stand it.

[Beaverhausen]

25. well I liked it a lot. I loved the characters even with their flaws

and I have just visited wine country so it brought back nice memories.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

27. delete

[candle_bright]

31. That bad, huh?

Must've been for you to delete it! Yikes! B-)

[LizW]

4. Yep, Napoleon Dynamite was awful

Although my preteen kids loved it and can quote every line. :eyes:

Dodgeball was also stupid.

We watched Closer last Sunday night. Lots of eye candy for all, but I hated all the characters.

[Melynn]

35. Dodgeball was the last bad movie I saw

And I paid good money to watch it in the theaters. What was I thinking????

[ghostsofgiants]

7. I felt the same way about Napoleon Dymnamite the first time I saw it

But my brother got the dvd for xmas, and I watched it then. I thought it was hilarious.

As for me, the worst movies I've seen lately have been The Grudge and The VIllage.

8. "Vanity Fair"

With Reese Witherspoon. I thought I would watch a well made film based on a literary classic. I knew it wouldn't be fast paced excitement...but "Vanity Fair" was sooooooooooooo slooooooooooooowwwww. I felt like it would be sometime next week before the thing would be over. Extraordinarily tedious.

[Merrick]

9. Tierra

Directed by Julio Medem. Most of the best movies I've seen in the past year since getting Netflix have been foreign, but this bascially epitomized the pretentious, quasi-profound stereotype many hold of foreign movies. I haven't seen so much ham-fisted symbolism since The Princess and the Warrior.

And Napolean Dynamite was flippin' sweet.

[concord]

10. Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow

A total waste of talent (and my time).

[bridgit]

11. exorcist, the beginning...

[BlueJazz]

12. Yep..One of my friends saw it and was simply amazed ...

..at how bad it sucked!

[frylock]

15. open water..

I can't understand why everyone likes this movie. It was pretty much everything I expected it to be; dull and unsuspenseful. It's two people floating around in the ocean fer cryin' out loud!!

[bridgit]

19. omg yes!

where's jaws when you need him?

:hi:

[Jessica]

16. I Heart Huckabees ...

Sometimes amusing ... mostly confusing.

[tigerbeat]

17. The Chronicles of Riddick

actually rented this turkey. boy was this shite complete shit.

[RevolutionaryActs]

18. The last movie I felt that way about was "The Good Girl."

Oy. :banghead:

[candle_bright]

20. I thought that was a stinker too

I think I rented that one shortly after it came out on DVD.

[RevolutionaryActs]

22. I watched it on HBO.

All I can say is... thank gawd it was free. :o

Mind numbingly dull plot with obnoxious, self-centered characters. I bet they were all republicans. :evilgrin:

[Blue in a Red State]

21. Closer, Anchorman, Jersey Girl, Employee of the Month

[musette_sf]

26. Leprechaun: Back 2 tha Hood

On cable last Friday night. I laughed my ass off. It was the worst thing I'd seen in ages... but in a good way.

[Zing Zing Zingbah]

28. Finding Neverland

Very dull movie.

[solinvictus]

30. The Grudge...

It had a silly plot, bad acting, and holes in the story big enough for delivery trucks.

[ghostsofgiants]

32. The Grudge ahd a plot?

News to me.

[Tweed]

33. Sahara

I saw this movie a month ago. This one is terrible and its coming out Friday. Avoid it like the plague.

[ForrestGump]

34. "Le Divorce"

Have no recollection of the stupid thing...had no recollection while I was watching it, either.

I do remember that I couldn't relate even though I'm going through Le Divorce myself...

[NNadir]

36. Those of us who have children and have seen Pokeman movies

deserve some kind of medal.

[Hardrada]

37. National Treasure

A hokey Disney ripoff of stuff like Da Vinci Code. Asinine characters. No sex.

[YankeyMCC]

38. Alien Apocalypse
