I hated, hated, HATED this movie!

[Alcy]

Okay, The Hillz has to be the nail in the lid of the coffin on Paris Hilton's acting career. Honestly, the woman is so terrible I think she got worse as the movie went along.
That and the movie is just about the worst piece of shit I have ever laid eyes on. I am so sick of movies about poor little rich kids and all they do is get wasted, do drugs, have sex and kill people...honestly.
I really hate watching bad movies, time is much too precious! So I'm warning everyone else so they don't have to! (Keeping in mind of course that people's tastes in movies are highly subjective!)

[LesbianJedi87]

One of the recent movies Ive seen was the movie "Hostel" I know someone else posted about disliking it themselves but I just figured to each his own right? Well this movie was horrible! I definatly WON'T be buying it when it come's to dvd!

[SySnootles]

I watched The War of the Worlds this weekend and hated it so much, or at least the 40 minutes I saw before abandoning it. In an effort to make it realistic Spielberg has an unsympathetic main character, washed out colours (again!) and different characters speaking at the same time making it difficult to understand what anyone is saying. The only good things about it were the actress playing Tom Cruise's daughter and the special effects, but that wasn't nearly enough to keep me watching.

I just had the misfortune to watch this film myself (thankfully not on my dollar), and I have to agree with you nearly 100%. I was irritated through almost all of the film for one reason or another. One thing I did like was the compete meltdown of humanity, which I see as being relatively realistic, though not, at the same time (largely due to plot points). Since you didn't sit through the entire thing, you missed some amazingly terrible plot devices and conveniences, and a unbelievablely ridiculous happy ending. I was shocked that this movie did as well as it did, and it didn't even do all that well.

Sheesh. At least I can say that I have seen it.

[Candleshoe]

At least I can say that I have seen it.

I dislike Tom Cruise so much that I didn't even bother trying to sit through this.

Sounds like I was right!

[Emms]

I'm currently 1/4 the way through Corpse Bride. I can already tell I don't like it. It's a shame too...cause I was looking forward to seeing it.

[Hemiola]

Sorry, Emms, but as a dyed-in-the-wool stop motion fan I have to say it's one of the best things I've seen in years.

It is vastly superior to Burton's "Nightmare Before Christmas" (both technically and from the story point of view), and even Elfman's music is (for a change) perfectly appropriate, and the voice casting is outstanding (especially Michael Gough). I also rather enjoyed the macabre "Remains of the Day" song.

There is even a cute "inside" joke in the film: when the groom sits down at a piano, the name of the piano's manufacturer is given as "Harryhausen"

So, we'll agree to disagree, as I return to my newly-purchased DVD of the original version of "King Kong"...

I wasn't looking at it from a technical standpoint. I just didn't like the story line. it kinda creeped me out....and ewww with the maggot that was in the brides eye.

[Auburn]

All the 'Scary Movie' Movies. The humour of them doesn't appeal to me

[hahler]

Talking about bad remakes how about the DUKES OF HAZZARD
It was reported that halfway through the preimere (sp) the original cast walked out. Now that is bad.

As far as my worst movie(s) i would have to say i have a few:
THE GRUDGE (STUPID)
OCEANS 12 (LOOKOUT THERE IS A 13 ON THE WAY)
BOOGEYMAN
WILLIE WONKA
EDWARD SCISSORHANDS
BROKE BACK MOUNTAIN


Those are the ones just off of the top of my head

DAWN

[hahler]

Ok i forgot one:
DANCES WITH WOLVES
OPEN RANGE

Oh wait what do these have in common?

KEVIN COSTNER

it is a waste of 3 hours of your life with each of his movies

[oneyedchicklet]

I don't know if its just me or if I'm completely missed something, but I didn't like...nope, I'm changing that to HATED Crash. It was like a train wreck, I just had to keep watching to see if it would get any better. It didn't. I'm still in shock over the fact that it won the Best Picture Oscar.

HUGS

[sam7777]

Oh yeah I hated both "Dances with Wolves" (almost walked on on that one) and "Crash" (so many other better movies were nominated).

[Candleshoe]

Alexander. It was just rubbish.

[Candleshoe]

I am I the only person here who hates movies at the moment?

I saw Honey a while ago, and decided that it was the worst film I had ever seen. Not even Jessica Alba's abs redeemed it for me.

And then tonight I saw American Dreamz. It redefined the word "crap" for me, and has become my new lowest of the low. It was anti-American, anti-British, anti-Middle Eastern, xenophobic, homophobic and dull.

I have seen adverts with better plots, and read cereal boxes with more depth. If it was trying to be satirical, it failed, because it wasn't funny or subtle or clever. It was just appalling.

How they got funding is beyond me. How the lawyers and censors passed it is beyond me. Why the frilly heck Willem Dafoe and Hugh Grant signed on is well beyond me.

Why on earth didn't someone stand up at the initial pitch meeting and say "this is a load of hoo-hoo, and our money would be better spent somewhere else". That person would have been my hero.

Mandy Moore looked pretty though. I'm so shallow....

I'm pretty sure that saying "this is a load of hoo-hoo..." would have ensured the movie got made and raised the budget.

[Candleshoe]

Sadly, JustSkipIt, I think you are probably right...

[billy]

Sin City. I liked the comics but found the voice overs and music really annoying. Completely ruined it for me.

[Twisted Minstrel]

The Beastmaster. Good God. The 80s were pustular with 'sword and sorcery' epics and this one must have been the High and Mighty Stinker of the them all.

[willowbaby05]

#1. Jaws 'The Revenge'
- Come on. Since when do sharks roar?
#2. Freddy Got Fingered
- It was a waste of there money and my time.
#3. The Grudge
- Sucked
#4. Scary Movie 3
-Piece of Crap. Period
#5. Glitter
- It was horrible. Honestly, I cold have been doing something else with my time.
#6. Nightmare On Elm's Street.
- I think they got to funny with it. I mean the first and second one's were cool, but after that they stared to suck.
#10. Jason X
- I dont even need to explain why.

[Twisted Minstrel]

Leaving Las Vegas. The only film I ever walked out of about 20 minutes before the end. Thiat the film sought to romanticize a self-pitying 'sensitive' male writer by making him a 'victim' to his work, his failed relationship, then the easy cliche of booze - not to mention the fantasy of the hooker with a heart of gold who falls for him - is just an insult too far. Despite it's intensity and brevity of the performances involved, it was still too depressing and too self-involved to be truly watchable. Just a waste of film.

[WillowsGirlXX]

Speed 2 Cruise control, sorry but the deck of the ship acted better than some of the cast.

I loathe Chasing Amy too, grrr @ Ben Affleck

Rachel

[Candleshoe]

You are so right WillowsGirl, Speed 2 was awful.

And I know that I shouldn't like Chasing Amy, what with all the stereotypes and lesbians being gay until coming into close proximity to Mr Affleck (a theme which has unfortunately been picked up by a couple of other films too)

but I do...maybe it's 'cos I fancy Joey Lauren Adams

[boomstick79]

I sat through a preview of Da Vinci Code last night and wished I could have stapled my eyes shut by the end of it. Not even the mega cute Audrey Tautou could save it.
I liked the book, but the film, yeesh, snore! From the man who gave us the adrenaline rush of Backdraft comes the most plodding and dull film I've seen all year. A shame. But it was a pile of arse frankly.

~Lou

[hahler]

OK it is official i have just wasted $4.99 on buying Brokeback Mountain on PPV. That movie set not only the cowboy lifestyle back but it puts the gay issue back at least 15 years.


What were these people thinking?
maybe they should try to live the lifestyle before they write about it so they know what the heck they are talking about

Im glad I wasnt the only one who disliked this movie. I don't even know why I watched it after prolonging it for such a long time. First of all, I couldn't understand a goddamn thing they were saying even if the volume was turned up, so I had to put it on subtitles. And getting Heath Ledger, an Australian, to play a cowboy was just.....silly on the casting department. The movie starts off slow, and continues to be slow throughout the entire time. It's definatly a movie I won't be watching again.

[Willow~Rosenberg]

Hmmm, I haven't posted here in a while.

If I haven't said it before, I agree with those who said Speed 2 was horrible. *shudders at the thought* Just plain horrible.

And the thought that they have even considered Ocean's 13 makes me cringe, let alone the fact that they are making it as we speak.

Let's see, a new movie to add. I also saw a few minutes of There's Something about Mary and I changed to a different station. Horrible.

I would also like to nominate for your consideration ( lol ) Charlie's Angels 2: Full Throttle. The special effects are so cheesy they should be served with wine and crackers to at least make them worthwhile. The plot was pathetic and I even wanted to tell Demi Moore to stop whining and I don't have anything against the woman.

[Auburn]

I was made to watch a tomb raider movie. I wish I had been more stubborn and said no! Not even Angelina Jolie made me stop playing monopoly on my mobile phone! There was no way I was watching the sequal! Nooooo way!

[Emms]

I saw The Omen last night... I didn't think it was all that great... it's my feeling that if you're going to go to the trouble of remaking something...you should at least try and make it better than the original. There were a couple scare-worthy parts, but for the most part is was a fest

xoxo
Emms

[DelWhicker]

Ditto to that, Emms. I saw it last night, too. I thought The Omen was a very bland and washed-out remake. It wasn't even worth it for the actual 30 seconds of 'scariness'. I don't even think that better actors would have made a difference. I'd have to give it a double thumbs down from start to finish. I would've rather seen Over the Hedge.

[boomstick79]

I saw Ultraviolet last night and it's a sad state of affairs when even Milla Jovovich's tummy can't save a film. Truly awful, and for a film that seemd to market itself on its visuals and fight scenes, it just got terribly boring and repetitve after a while, and I like dumb action movies.
And the script....jeez.... Acting? Forget it. Even the music was bad and Klaus Badelt doesn't usually let me down. Shame, I quite fancied a movie about futuristic vampire clans waging war with humans, but it was shite. Nuff said *sigh*
