Your WORST 5 films

[Hibbyradge]

Obviously personal taste and opinion determines what we consider to be best and worst so the only rule for this thread is that you must have sat through the entire film.

My 5 are, in no particular order;

The Hangover
40 Year Old Virgin
The Matrix Revolutions
Highlander 2
Independence Day

[Santa Cruz]

Have to say haven't even made it to the end of some of these films.

Final Destination
Twister
The Matrix
Nativity
Down With Love

Edit - sorry HR just read watched the entire film. Managed all apart from the last 15 mins of the first on my list.

[LaMotta]

Burn After Reading
Kill Bill
The Expendables
Minority Report
The Matrix

Some of these films get good ratings, I just hated them:greengrin

The Matrix being one. I watched it because so many raved about it. I found it so confusing I lost interest. Although I prefer easy to follow stories, I don't mind films that have exciting plots that need more concentration. I didn't have a scooby what was going on with this one. Why did you not like it?

I seriously considered having Kill Bill on my list as well. It's a lot of style over substance with Tarantino using it as a way to make himself the star of the show. I know it's what some people love about Tarantino but there are occasions, such as in Kill Bill, when I just find it grating. Anyway I'll got for:

Interstellar - People loved the visuals and that's fair enough. The story itself was dull. I was praying for the 2 main characters to hurry up and die so I could go home from about half way through. Sickly sentimental, Titanic in space.

Diamonds Are Forever - The worst Bond film of them all and there have been a few stinkers. Lazenby was good in the previous film but the response was mixed so they threw money at Connery to bring him back. They gave him a great villain but a script full of camp innuendo and cheesy one liners. It was like an introductory warning to the whole Carry On Bond era of Roger Moore.

Batman & Robin - Another film that took a franchise that should be a slam dunk and turned it into a jokey, mindless caper.

Blair Witch Project - Almost nothing happens. Add to that it's spawned a whole generation of cliched lost footage films.

Braveheart - Seriously WTF? From the second Mel Gibson pops onto screen and brushes his perfectly conditioned hair from his face you just know it's going to be bad. I loved it when I was about 12 but I think that's the age range it's targeted at. The accents, the clothing, the storyline, the music..... Everything about it is just painfully terrible.

Just goes to show how different people are on these things. Interstellar just missed out on my top 5! I also found Blair Witch extremely disturbing and was engrossed from the first minute. Maybe because I used to wild camp a lot as a kid.

I'll give you Batman and Robin though 😁. One of the very few films I've walked out of.

I think this thread naturally doubles as an "Unpopular opinions" one! Jaws FFS:confused: Each to their own of course!

Films I hated that come to mind

Yesterday (it's the lack of any attempt to explain it that grates with me....)
The Flintstones (remember being about 10 and thinking this was the worst film I'd ever seen)
Spectre (A Bond film that seems to ignore the fact that Austin Powers exists. Just awful, as can be said for every "other" Daniel Craig Bond film ie Casino Royal good, Quantum of Solace rubbish)
Rise of Skywalker (just acted as if the prior film didn't exist and unwound all of it's bold plotting. Worst Star Wars film to date)
Sin City (just too misogynistic and grim for me. Don't mind style over substance but the stories were just dull and toxic).

[Scouse Hibee]

The only ******SPOILER******* gripe I had was the unrealistic ahem fall from the tower and lack of immediate death…but otherwise it’s a stoater of a movie. clearly we have different tastes.

This is a good example of why I could accept a lot of the suggestions on here if the thread was on “most over rated” as there are a few I know had been built-up so much I was ultimately let down when watched them.

But the worst folk have ever seen?! There are a LOT of surprises on here.

Do people finish films if they aren't enjoying them?

If I'm not interested after half an hour I switch it off.

The Twilight films
Her
Love Actually
Dancer in the Dark
Dancer in the Dark

I don't generally hate films; there's usually something that keeps me watching. But like anyone else who's had kids, I've soldiered through an awful lot of mediocrity and nonsense (as well as lots of absolutely terrific stuff). Most of these are so unmemorable I couldn't put a name to them, but Twilight really pushed my buttons.

Her - I know a lot of people who really liked this. Couldn't say why, but it annoyed me.

Love Actually - we had a family re-watch of those early Hugh Grant movies a few months ago. Quite enjoyed 4 weddings, but I was already done with the foppish romantic toff thing by then, and I wanted to throw things at Love Actually. He's much better as a villain.

Dancer in the Dark deserves two mentions. It's not fair to call it a bad film, but I found it really distressing - to the point I wish I'd had the courage of my convictions and just left. Instead, because I didn't want to feel like a wuss, I stayed and recited lists in my head to distract me from the trauma. American states, verb tables, Skol Cup winning squad... Didn't work.

P.S. I'm in the 'Surely not?!' :Ummm: camp for Jaws and in Bruges. I also have a sneaking affection for Nativity. Both of them :blushie:

There were a few things in the films that were added that weren't in the books, directors have artistic licence, sometimes not always for the betterment of the film.

Shutter island is brilliant. Wish I could watch it for the first time again.

I don’t want to sound like a dick but unless someone watched it and didn’t fully follow it, I find it hard to believe it could be anywhere near someone’s list of worst films! But that’s what opinions are all about.

[WeeRussell]

I’ve never read them, they’re on the list.

I’d like to think they’re a reverse of the Harry Potter books. I was so so dissatisfied with the films.

I’m not a big reader by any stretch, but did manage the Hobbit when was younger. It was great. I’ve got the trilogy too but not managed to get them read. Got 40 odd pages into the first and typically put it down for too long.

I managed the first Harry Potter film, thinking I would quite like them and watch them all, and came to the conclusion one was enough. I may watch the others at some point!

[Sylar]

Don't currently have the energy to work out a top 5 but 'Cyrus' is easily the worst film I've ever watched. Walked out after an hour thankful I didn't specifically pay for it (back in the good old days of a Cineworld Unlimited card).

[davy67 +]

Can I add Mission Impossible 2 as a late entry , it's truly awful and easily the worst film in the franchise and such a letdown after the first one

Mad Max: Fury Road - utter dirge - the same protracted action sequence in two different directions - good action sequences, but an otherwise terrible movie

2 reasons: it's gash and I watched it to the end.

Baz Luhrmans Romeo and Juliet? I thought it was a classic. Loved it.

Watched it as part of my Advanced Higher English at school. Garbage imo.

Ha ha, I also watched it in English class. Don’t recall even writing about it so suffered for no reason!

[Hibbyradge]

A couple spring to mind

A Castle for Christmas must be the worst film I’ve ever watched binned it after 10 minutes absolutely woeful.

The Revenant was another that for me was absolute torture to sit through way too long with nothing happening.

I loved The Revenant.

[K-Zazu]

Good film.

We were made to watch Chocolat. I can still remember the feeling of time standing still.

I’ve seen it a few times, I feel like I should hate it…but I cannae help enjoying it.

Worst about it is we done Memento for Higher. To then be subjected to Romeo and ****ing Juliet a year later was torture. Watched Apollo 18 last night, ending is ***** and ruined what could’ve been a good film otherwise. Probably not worst 5 material but genuinely disappointing

Memento was bad

[Hibby70]

I know we all have different tastes and that but come on..... 😂. Can only be maroon cardigan wearers with some of these suggestions.

[Wembley67]

As a few have mentioned I know everyone has their own tastes but come on....if we are going down the road, my top 5 are

Godfather
Goodfellas
Shawshank
The Shining
Weird Science

All absolutely terrible, they will never amount to anything 😭

I think Wembley was being ironic, we’ve reached that stage on this thread now (although i must admit The Godfathers slow pace is a really difficult watch for modern audiences used to stuff happening quicker, so i wouldnt be totally shocked to see some snotty milennial putting it on this thread disappointed it wasnt like Goodfellas :greengrin)

The Godfather is my favourite film. Anyone, young or old, who says it's bad is a moron and should have their toenails pulled out.

Its OK. No-one, literally NO-ONE, prefers the 3rd one.

Would be boring if we all agreed

Found it slow complicated back to front and confusing lost the will to live

Cinematography was good IIRC

Sorry to go off the thread topic a bit, but if you liked Godfather, I'd recommend The Offer.
It's a box set about what went on behind the scenes in the making of the Godfather movie.

Many years since I saw it but I remember enjoying it too.

The nosedive Marvel movies have taken is an obvious one to call out. My youngest and I watched our way through everything from Iron Man to End Game during Covid but apart from the Tom Holland Spider Man movies nothing since has really hit the spot.

[Colr]

Sponge Bob Squarepants Movie
Barbie
The Trial (version with Kyle MacLachlan)
Blair Witch Project
Moulin Rouge

[Colr]

Have to say haven't even made it to the end of some of these films.

Final Destination
Twister
The Matrix
Nativity
Down With Love

Edit - sorry HR just read watched the entire film. Managed all apart from the last 15 mins of the first on my list.

Nativity was painful to watch and each sequel sunk to lower depths of banality

[BILLYHIBS]

Thought Moulon Rouge was decent who knew Ewan McGregor could sing ?

I have to admit, the Barbie Movie was actually very good. Quite enjoyed it, not desperate to watch it again but it wasn’t anywhere near as Shan as I expected.

Shawshank got to be in the top five of all time superb story telling

Memento is superb.

[Bishop Hibee]

There’s plenty dross but I’m listing 5 I thought were rubbish that others loved.

Forrest Gump
The Big Lebowski
The 3 Lord of the Rings films.

[The Modfather]

On that theme. Anchorman. I’ve never got why it’s so loved or so quoted. I’m generally not a fan of Will Ferrell though.

[Bridge hibs]

Night of the Day of the Dawn of the Son of the Bride of the Return of the Revenge of the Terror of the Attack of the Evil, Mutant, Alien, Flesh Eating, Hellbound, Zombified Living Dead Part 2

Part 1 was garbage too

[Northernhibee]

I don’t know what my list would be yet but some recent Tarantino ones would be on there. Three to four hours for nothing to happen. Some might think it’s clever, I just find it self indulgent.

I though self indulgence was kind of his thing. Not lately but always?

Anyway, you can only be talking Once Upon a Time in Hollywood? For most of his films, like them or not, sonething happens!

Personally I like him. The most I'd credit him for is the performance he gets out of some of his actors. Samuel L Jackson in Pulp Fiction versus anything else Sam has ever done. Christophe Waltz in Inglorios *******s versus his forgettable turn as Blofeld in the recent Bond films.

That and he can put a good soundtrack together.

Red Notice was a big pile of *****. As was RIPD

Any film starring Liam Neeson or Steven Seagal, no matter what the film is they play the same part, terrible actors.

I went to see Deadpool v Wolverine tonight. It was disappointingly bad.

I realise that I'm not the target audience and it'll probably appeal to adolescent boys, and Americans, but I nearly walked out wearily more than once.

There are a few decent gags and some of the special effects are impressive, but overall the dialogue is puerile and unnecessarily crude, and out of 2 hours 7 minutes, probably over half of it is spent in massive CGI created, slash and shoot battles with excessive focus on men's groins and erses being stabbed and shot.

The first Deadpool was intelligent, charming, very funny and original. This third incarnation is almost its exact opposite.

Totally agree. Psuedish pish. Theme song was a mockery of a perfectly good song, as well.
