Alan, I already have interest in R.T, sorry!

Howard the Duck, while maybe not the greatest movie ever made, I thought was rather fun!! I quite liked that little Ducky.

Nope, Star Wars 1+2 both send me to sleep. I cannot keep my eyes open during them.

Same goes for the Matrix. I hate that film! 3 times I have tried to watch this over-rated crap and still catch myself snoozing through it. Sorry, but not my cup of tea at all.

The live action adaptation of the Japanese manga Casshern is 2 hours + of pure boredom... Which is such a shame as it is on of the most visually striking movies that I've seen in years.

The occasional fight scene brightens it up, but it's hobbled by under-developed characters we don't care about and illogical plot turns that are never explained - the result kicks any 'suspension of disbelief' right out of the window!

Avoid. Avoid. Avoid!


If you fancy something to read...

OMG!  Andy called The Matrix "over rated crap"!  I can't believe anyone would think that!  Every moment of every matrix movie is so perfect!

LMAO!! I know, I must be one of the FEW who dislike this movie. I wasted good money at the cinema, especially as I slept through the last 25 minutes of it. Two more tries on DVD proved pointless  

I can't tolerate another second of Mr.Keanu-wooden-acting-mono-toned-Reeves anymore.

With love, the Matrix-hater

I'm with Andy on this one. Although I enjoyed the movie, I do think it's overrated. I didn't think it was anything special and I haven't felt compelled to watch it again

Seed of Chucky, god, I just hated that movie. The only reason I watched it was because Hannah Spearritt was on it and she's from this ABC Family show I used to watch.

I love the Matrix. I put up with Keanu Reeves and even more in the second/third ones, but Carrie-Anne Moss and Laurence Fishburne kicked a$$. Hugo Weaving, too.

Fatherhood - with Patrick Swayze and Halle Berry! Well, I have to admit, though I was hooked from start to end, it had the most absurd storyline going on. I mean, it was ourtageously bad but it had good spirit I suppose! I really only stuck with it for Patrick, he's just gorgeous, but this movie... yeah, um, I wouldn't recommend it to anyone! I can't believe I watched it all.

'Twas like banging my head against a brick wall watching "Bad Taste"! This was complete an utter crap. I was made to watch this, with a group of guys and just totally did NOT see the appeal whatsoever! What the hell was Peter Jackson on when he made this?! Furthermore, I can't believe it has a cult following. I mean, hello people! Rubbish!

There is this other movie, which I don't recall the name of, but it's about this grown assed mentally retarded man who wears a diaper and is called "baby". His mother and sister are looking after him, well, I think they abuse him... but he liked it... if I remember right, and then he gets it on with his social worker, in his diaper! It's so disturbing! I think it was made in the 60's or 70's but God, it was so weird. I can't for the life of me remember the name of it, but it's bugging me now. > I may even remember it wrong too, as I was so shocked watching it, I may have damaged myself forever!LOL!

I happened upon this thread by doing a search for Rushmore, so I'm reviving a mighty old thread, but this one can be revisited time and again, I'd say.

I can't say Matrix wasn't 2 hrs of my life wasted, as I didn't make it through a half hour before turning it off.  Most boring piece of stuff ever.  Except perhaps. . . .

Waterworld.  Kevin Costner trying to be an action hero.  Just plain awful.  Just awful.

Sadly enough, I kind of felt that way after watching Guy Ritchie's RocknRolla.  I had high hopes for that.

There's only one film that I've not enjoyed even slightly and that was The Ringer.

It may not technically be the worst film ever made, but it's the worst I've evr seen. Much worse than any of the terrible low budget stuff that's around that.

Really, truly embarrassingly bad.

Some films are so bad they are funny, som efilms aren't quite bad enough to be funny and are just bad. The ringer was beyond so bad it was funny and has a level all of it's own.

In some ways it almost takes a very rare breed of genius to make a film like that. You need an Anti-Genius.

Diary of the Dead was on HBO, yesterday.  That bastard child of the Blair Witch Project truly sucked.

American Pie: Beta House.

For some reason, I've watched this twice. I still have no idea why. Sure, there are lots of nice boobies in it... But that's about the film's only redeeming factor.
