Worst Movies Ever

I really like some M Night Shayamalan movies.
Some of them are just maybe, kinda sorta okay-ish.
Some are flat out terrible. Looking at you "The Crappening & Knock at the Cabin."

I sort of consider them "time and place" movies. At the time, there wasn't much else like them, so they stood apart. Then the imitators arrived on the scene in droves, and there was a glut of stylized, hyper violent films trying to recreate the "QT" formula, and the downstream effect is that the originals lose some of their luster. With that said, the core of what made those films so popular and transcendent is still there, it's just been watered down by time.

To an extent especially since I saw RD a few years after it came out, but these are all stylistic things. I still just think PF and RD have some really silly characters, and the stories are not really interesting or unique to me.
 
I just watched the original "Death Race 2000" while I was home sick yesterday, as it was suggested following the original "Mad Max." Other than the boobas, it was easily one of the worst movie's I've ever seen. There was some star power in David Carradine, Sylvester Stallone, and Martin Kove (John Kreese in Karate Kid), but it seemed like a joke that never hit home.
 
I just watched the new version of Hellraiser on Hulu. We have another contestant for WTF movie of the year. I understand it’s supposed to be about the choices people make and the consequences they bring, but it was ******* dumb.

That’s why very few war movies are any good for me. They get so much stuff wrong it’s hard to watch. The Pacific, Band of brothers, Hamburger Hill, Full Metal Jacket, are some that hold water and get most of it correct.

A lot of military movies get so much wrong they are cringe, even though the general audience loves them, I want to correct all the nonsense.

Almost anything you're familiar with comes out cringy from Hollywood. I loved Ford Versus Ferrari, but there is no f'ing WAY two race drivers are talking to each other on the track.

I'm not a racer, but a car guy. I was at Ford weekend in Carlisle PA a few years ago and they started the engine on one of the vintage GT40s. There wasn't one non deaf person in that 100 acre grounds that didn't jump at the volume.

Martin McDonagh’s movies are acclaimed and they are freaking garbage. Three Billboards, In Bruges, Banshees of Inisherin. Awful.

I just watched it last week. So dumb you have to keep watching. David Carridine was one really weird dude. Wasn't surprised he ended up going auto erotic. I'm sure Stallone ranks that performance right up there with Rocky. You are correct. One of the worst movie's ever made.

Is that the one where the shark roars?

Aw yeah. The roaring, the flashbacks from someone who wasn't there, the stabbing with a ship to cause the shark to explode.

Terrible movie but the ending is up there with the best kind of terribleness.

Kids made me watch Les Miserables. Hugh Jackman monotone signing lines? Ugh, what a nightmare.

RV is also terrible. Never been a Robin Williams fan and this is probably his worst.

OG Meet The Parents was okay. No idea how the sequels got greenlit.

Dirty Dancing is SUCH a bad movie but such a one-liner and somehow managed popularity.

The part after the 'big dance' when the dad tells Baby how wonderful she looked up there really ties it together.

Yeah, tell your young daughter how great she looked up there in front of the whole country club, grinding on the 30 some year old playboy to some song from 20 years in the future.

It's a terrible, terrible movie with terrible terrible lessons. It did oftentimes lead to good things if you could sit through it back in the day. It was sort of the precursor to, "I've never seen The Notebook."

Try watching it as a meteorologist. Ruined the movie for me. There is zero correct use of science in that movie. Throw out a lot of terms but not used in correct context. A lot of stuff mentioned is just laughable and wrong.

Absolutely true. I find the same thing with aircraft and/or space stuff (AeroE). Even in Gravity there were a few "uuhhhhhhh" things. But it doesn't ruin the movie for me, I suppose.

Twister is basically Independence Day, but tornadoes instead of aliens. And a better soundtrack.

Four movies that got rave reviews and did really well at the box office, but are complete crap:

Silver Linings Playbook
American Hustle
La La Land
The Thin Red Line (I don't think this one did great at the box office but was up for a number of awards)
