TOP 10 WORST MOVIES EVER
10) THE VILLAGE
Once upon a time, M. Night Shyamalan released the Sixth Sense and everyone was surprised by the twist ending. But then Shyamalan released a dozen more movies, each with a wild twist end, and people realized that he was a one trick pony. Now I'm not going to include Avatar: The Last Airbender on this list. Not because it's good, God no, it's horrendous. But because I don't want this whole list to be Shyamalan's failings as a director. So The Village. Twist here is that it's not actually set in the past, done. Why is this film so bad, Because it's utterly boring, the plot is stupid, the twist ending kills an already dull film, and in the end, It's just plain forgettable.
9) A SERBIAN FILM
Let me start by saying that A Serbian Film is well shot and clearly had a decent budget behind it. The special effects are good and the film's acting is solid for the most part. Now let me follow that up with the fact that A Serbian Film is utterly without taste, goes for the most extreme shocks, has a wafer thing plot, and is generally too difficult for many people to stomach watching. I wasn't exactly shocked by what I saw because I've always held that what is real is more shocking that fiction. However I generally thought the subject matter was so dark that it was made for the sole purpose of trying to offend people, I won't go into the details, but basically this is not a film for average movie-goers. As a side-note, when the director was criticized for creating such a film, He doubled back and called it a film of social commentary.
8) JAWS 4: THE REVENGE
First there was Jaws. then there was another Jaws that nobody cared about, Then Jaws went 3D with blue and red glasses and we all laughed. finally Jaws literally chased the Brody family to their new home in order to get sweet sweet revenge. Let that last sentence sink in. Jaws 4 killed the franchise worse than the previous Jaws and proved once and for all that a name alone does not carry a series. completely boring, totally stupid, and unfortunately stars Michael Caine in what could have killed his career as well as the titular shark.
7) THE AMAZING SPIDER-MAN 2
I am not forgiving this travesty. I could've put Epic Movie on this list in place of this film, but no, No because Epic Movie was meant to be stupid. The Amazing Spider-Man 2 was made with the sole focus on being loyal to the franchise and carrying on the series. Here's what I like about this film, Andrew Garfield. Here's what I hate about it, everything else. The dialogue is stupid, Electro is whiny and annoying rather that funny and eccentric and his costume outright sucks. The Green Goblin is thrown in for absolutely no reason whatsoever and his costume though better than Electro's. features guy liner and Static sprung hair. Also Paul Giamatti plays the Rhino in this film for about 2 minutes and y'know what, he's awful as well, and I like Giamatti. Just forget this film exists.
6) JACK AND JILL
Adam Sandler should retire from movies, TV, books. In fact he should just donate his money to the needy and move somewhere that no one will have to watch him ever again. Jack and Jill features every single annoying, lazy, unfunny joke and trope that Sandler could think of. People have long thought that Sandler has been phoning it in for the money since Happy Gilmore and I would completely agree. Jack and Jill isn't the latest mess from Sandler (That award goes to Pixels) but it surely proved to be the laziest film he's made in years.
5) JASON GOES TO HELL: THE FINAL FRIDAY
At this point in the series of Friday 13th Movies, No one knew what to do with Jason. So just kill him off 5 minutes in, why not? I'll tell you why not. Because it's such a cheap trick to sell tickets to people hoping to see the latest from their favorite bad guy. This film never should've been made. it did nothing for the series other than explain that Jason is actually some sort of evil worm thing and that if you eat his heart he'll possess you... WHAT?!?! We've gone from a supposedly drowned deformed child who's mum gets revenge for his apparent demise. To that same kid growing up to possess people and... Oh I don't even know!. but the cheapest trick? the title, there is NO mention of hell or anything hell-like in the film. Jason just dies and that's it.
4)KEITH LEMON: THE FILM
Over here in the U.K we have a comedian named Keith Lemon (Leigh Francis) who hosts a Saturday night comedy panel show, which to be fair, is actually really funny albeit low-brow. So when Keith pushed his movie 'The Film' his fans went wild, unfortunately. Everyone else knew what would happen when a small time British TV comedian got given his own film. needless to say, said film turned out to be one of the least funny, most offensive (In an unfunny way) and most boring films to come out. Some people believe that British comedy is high class and done in good taste, if you believe that then this film will change your mind in no time at all. Avoid!
3) MOVIE 43
You have some of the best talent Hollywood has to offer, you have a reasonable budget and access to decent writers who'd kill to work with said talent. And with all of that in mind, you release film so bad that the some of the actors tried to pull out of their contracts.
I tried to watch this film from start to finish but just couldn't make it. This film is so bad that I genuinely felt sorry for the actors because you can see the shame in their eyes as they go through their lines. I would rather watch a documentary on how paint dries than sit through this film again.
2) THE ROOM
I ain't even mad at how bad this film is. The Room is legendary for being one of the worst movies ever made and to be honest. it's almost so bad it's good. But it's still undeniably bad. The line "You're tearing me apart, Lisa!" is the most famous line from this flick and with 100% honesty here. It should be up there with the greats.
I don't think it's possible to be mad at Tommy Wiseau. It's like he doesn't understand what a film is. The Room makes no sense, literally none. it starts, things happen for no real reason, it ends. But hey, it's got a really dramatic anger scene where Tommy smashes up the place. Unfortunately you could be forgiven for thinking that Tommy got really drunk, walked on set, stubbed his toe and just went ape shit on the set. Not really sure why it's called The Room either... hmmm
1) THE DARK KNIGHT RISES
Nope not a joke. I hate the Dark Knight Rises. I absolutely hate it. And here is why:
- Batman gets his BROKEN BACK healed with a karate chop
- Bane went from being Mexican to English (Because every Mexican in a film has to be the stereotypical Cholo, sombrero wearing joke, and Bane being a smart strong unique Mexican villain is a big no no for cinema)
- Batman somehow creates a bat symbol on the side of a building as soon as he got back to Gotham from god-knows where
- The action scenes are edited in a really ugly way
- Bane turns out to just be some throwaway character
- A bomb... really, a bomb, That was the best you could come up with Nolan
- Cannot understand a word Bane or Batman are saying, they sound like the Godfather through a respirator.
It really bothered me that TDKR was the last of Christian Bale's Batman films as the previous film was so incredibly well done that to follow it up with this jumbled mess does nothing to help the series and instead just weighs down the whole thing.
Also think about this... When TDKR was released there was talk and rumors of a Justice League movie coming out. Now I know that Man of Steel was released a year later. But surely the filming of both movies occurred close to the same times. Wouldn't the ending have been so much butter if Batman surviving the explosion could be explained by Batman being rescued at the last second by the Man Of Steel himself, maybe that's just wishful thinking, but I'd have at least liked that more than the terrible ending the film actually had.
Well I hope you've enjoyed this latest blog and I'd love to check out your comments below to know whether you agree or not with my list. Just like the previous list. This one is my own personal opinion.
Have a great rest of day, and I'll see you next time.
