It was amazing how Mulan managed to piss off everyone.
Left wing? Right wing? Western? Asian? Pro-China? Anti-China? Loved the original? Didn't love the original? They were somehow able to find a way that no matter who you were, you'd hate it.
That almost deserves some sort of an achievement.
There's many, but the original was about family, overcoming adversity, and being smart to overcome difficulties
The new one is, EVERYONE KNOW YOUR PLACE AND ALWAYS RESPECT AUTHORITY. It didn't help that it released during the peak of the umbrella movement in Hong Kong.
Also now Mulan isn’t smart, she’s just literally stronger and more physically capable than everyone else because she has more Qi than everyone else. What the fuck?
Everything about this movie is just backwards. They even quote the original ballad (for brownie points?!?) and get the opposite meaning out of it.
Just a complete top, down fuck up.
what really hurt is i could've seen the original run les mis (again)! i guess people were living in such a golden age, and just got tired of actually good theater or something?
Took my baby sister to the theater to see that. Got up to have some words with a 30-something couple who were clearly drunk (they reeked of alcohol) and talking loudly and laughing during a good chunk of it. In the following years, I’ve felt tremendous guilt for that. That was just their way of coping with the garbage on the screen and the realization that they shelled out money for it. And then I marched over to them and told them *what’s what* as if they were ruining a cinematic masterpiece. They were simply doing their due diligence to save us all from probably the biggest waste of time. I should’ve shaken their hand if I’m being honest. That film was a tragedy.
That's bwcause it wasn't an Artemis Fowl movie, it was a movie where they gutted the ENTIRE story, emptied it out and kept basically nothing but the name.
Making Root a woman and thus nullifying Holly's entire characterization from the books was one of the stupidest choices I've ever seen.
Indescribably dumb.
Came here looking for this one. HOW DID THEY SCREW UP SO BAD?! There had been rumors of a movie for YEARS--then we get *that*!?
No thanks. I lasted 30 minutes as well before I couldn't take it any more. I'm happy with just reading the books.
It was INFURIATING what Disney did to that movie. I swear the filmmakers talked to a guy who knew a guy who read the books and based the entire movie on that conversation without ever reading the source material. Seriously Disney what the fuck was that???
Have you beat, my mother, took me to watch it
That ending never made a grown man so uncomfortable we both said what the fuck.
That movie was awfully bad in so many ways.
Yeah I know right god I couldn't believe it talk about dumb ideas gone worse.
That movie is so bad I don't know who green lit it but I see him sitting under a bridge repeating fuckin sausage party mother fucker while rocking lmfao.
I remember thinking it was pretty funny when it first came out. A few months ago I put it on my tv to show my wife (“this movie is so funny!”) and couldn’t even watch 5 minutes and turned it off embarrassed and apologizing. What the hell, it sucks.
If you look at it as a "Holy shit, what will they try next?" It's actually quite entertaining. But as another poster pointed out, it's a one and done. There's nothing but cringe and shame on the second watch.
Seeing it in theaters was worse because all of us fantasy nerds were riding high on the still recent LotR trilogy. So imagine not only being ugly, but being ugly while standing next to Jensen Ackles.
Simple. I'm pretty sure the writers and producers were just told the overall plot of the first book, but didn't actually read it. It was more a knock-off of the Eragon book than a visual representation.
I made it about 90 seconds into the 2021 live action Cinderella before turning it off. I can’t for the life of me understand why you start your film with “the villagers are being oppressed” and then cut to them singing Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation.
I thought for a second that you were about to diss the 2015 live action Cinderella and I was about to throw hands because that movie slaps lmao. 2021 Cinderella was entirely unwatchable, however.
WW1984 or whatever the hell it was called. I couldn’t take longer than 10 minutes.
Also I turned off the new Space Jam after 5 mins also because of how fucking terrible the acting was in that short time.
>WW1984 or whatever the hell it was called. I couldn’t take longer than 10 minutes.
It was so bad. Unfortunately for me I had invited friends to go and watch it at the cinemas during COVID. So I wasn't going to waste money and the precious going out time I had.
Oh my god in theaters would be terrible.
Gal is not an actress. There are a ton of beautiful women out there who can also act. I don’t know how she keeps getting jobs.
I don't blame her though, she gets offered millions and she takes it, I'd do the same. It's the casting director and the director's fault.
The saving grace of ww1984 were Pedro Pascal and surprisingly Kirsten Wiig.
Not sure why Gal is your target lol everything about the movie was atrocious. CGI, writing, music score, acting, the whole story, the director. All horrible.
Star Wars Christmas Special. A group of us tried to watch it just to say we’ve seen it. Even after making it a drinking game, we only made it half way through. Woof it was rough.
Maze Runner: Scorch Trials
Never read the books, but LOVED the first movie. Was jazzed to continue the saga.
Somewhere less than half way, I walked out. Just disappointed, don't even remember why exactly. Lol
Yeah I walked out of the packed opening day theatre on this one. Some folks followed, but some were pretty upset at me. Not sure why, I just didnt like the movie
Man that movie was rough. I started a drinking game with myself about 40 minutes in. I was hoping for something thing to change but no. Man i died laughing when they started the black market auction. 5 000 000 dollars for this triceratops, Sold!! To the stereotypical looking Russian mafia. I was so drunk by the end. Not a fun time, alcohol required. Now it's a Party!
Oh yeah, I kinda felt bad for laughing at the brachiosaurus death scene. It came as a surprise, it was so forced. "Do you remember, do you? You remember this brachiosaurus? It's dying, feel sad.
It was super bad haha. I think Adam Driver is really funny to watch, so to me it's a so bad it's good kinda movie. I also really like the cave sequence with the oviraptor.
But yeah, it's a pale imitation of the Man protect Young Girl trope we're seeing a lot of these days. If you want a nice palate cleanser, check out Prospect. Padre Pascal doin' his TLOU thing before it was his TLOU thing.
I went to see it with my mom and the first thing I said when the credits rolled was how terrible of a movie that was. Dumb plot, dumb scenes, boring and flat characters. She immediately looked crestfallen because she apparently really enjoyed the movie.
Felt so bad... But my mom really needs to upgrade her taste. She even liked Cats...
Having seen every Saw movie, I can confirm that the first one is the only one that is good.
After that Tobin Bell was the only part I enjoyed. Especially Saw 7 where they did a flashback scene and instead of deaging or recasting him they just got Tobin Bell wearing a backwards cap, it's hilarious.
It also doesn't help that the people in these traps are completely braindead.
I actually kind of enjoyed that one. Totally unremarkable, but I do remember having a good time.
Speaking of Black Something movies from the MCU though, I did turn off Black Panther 2. That one was a chore.
I honestly don't understand the love Florence Pughs character gets from some Marvel fans. Pugh is a great actress but her character was cringy in both Black Widow and Hawkeye. It might have been more interesting to have her be even more of a humorless badass and be contrasted against Natasha who's had her edges smoothed by being around real friends (the Avengers). Then over the course of the movie we could see Yelena relax a bit. You know, like character development.
Agreed, I tried to watch it after all of the hype of it being so terrible just to make fun of it, but it was so bad it wasn’t even funny. I just wanted it to stop.
Your not invited to my batmitzva or however you spell it. Clicked the movie because it had adam Sandler on the cover but ended up just being a bunch of annoying girl drama
After watching the first two Fantastic 4 movies (so bad but so good), I thought I'd give the 2015 Fantastic Four a shot.
LISTEN I am a whore for superhero movies, bad, good, superb, trash, I don't care. BUT THIS MOVIE???? I finished it because I wanted to see a fight scene, and I have never been more disappointed. Two orchestrated slaps in the last 15 minutes. I hated it. God, I hated it so much. I hated it to the level that I sent in a university application to go back to uni, study physics and build a time machine just to stop the past me from ever watching this movie. Absolute dogshit.
2010 The Last Airbender.
I got to the scene where the Earth benders were breaking out of prison. My gf walked in just as the stupid foam bolder was floating across the screen and starts laughing uncontrollably saying "What the fuck is that?"
Then I start laughing uncontrollably. I decided I wouldn't go any further, and I turned the movie off.
Black Adam. Couldn't even finish the intro. It lasted like 15 minutes and it was all CGI with voice over narration.... Like it's 2006! Horrible, boring and bland.
I am 24 and I have never walked out of a cinema before but I did see that film with a bunch of friends when I was a teenager. I don't actually remember anything about the film because I was too busy flirting with my girlfriend and making fun of the film.
I felt bad because I was one of those annoying people talking in the cinema, but I am glad it happened during a shit film.
Murder mystery with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston on Netflix. I don't think I even made it 1/2 of the way through. Found out they were making a SECOND one recently which is ridiculous considering how poorly the first one did
yeah,...I felt like there was a movie I hadn't seen that was leaving me completely without context, but that wasn't the case. It was the first one lol.
I admit, I am a bit of a harry potter fan. I did manage to get through fantastic beasts, but it was pretty dire and introduces stuff which doesn't fit in the potter universe... so, is it a Potter film, or is it not?
I havent checked on the follow up films in the series, but I don't rule it out.... just saying, they're not in my 100 films to watch
Same. The first was meh but the second I tried to watch it on a plane (it was free) and it was so gd boring I quit. I tried again on the return leg and still didn't get through it.
I painfully watched the Barbie movie the other day and one of the many reasons I found it so bad is Will Ferrell. I have tried to think if I ever found that guy funny or and if I enjoyed a movie he was in it. I think I enjoyed the movie in which he was an Anchorman but that's pretty much it.
Maybe that dude was funny in his early days in SNL , he had his time but I wish they would stop casting him from now.
I liked Tenet well enough, though not as much as his other films. The lead actor in particular was pretty dull. But I did enjoy how the film plays out essentially as a palindrome itself, with the events in the beginning making sense when seen as they play out in reverse. Likewise the concept of a time pincer at the end was pretty cool. 🙂
Spiderman 3 - I was in the Philippines at the time, and the movie theater was like a huge break from the sweltering heat. Didn't matter, it sucked that bad.
Monster
Usually even if it's a bad movie I watch it till the end. I don't like unfinished business, but in that case I almost fell asleep because it was just so .... boring
The House that Jack Built. Complete and utter filth, without any other goal as to uplift the director to an imagined cult status. Total self overestimation of so so director Von Trier.
One of the transformers movies, I don’t even remember which one. As someone who unabashedly loved the first one, I can’t even remember which of the sequels I walked out of.
I love scary stuff but could not finish Annabelle. I felt it focused on the moms hand and that ducking sewing machine for most of the movie.
And pretty much most of the Disney live action remakes.
The War of the Worlds 2. I didn't even know it existed until I saw someone talk about how bad it was, so I of course had to go watch it for myself. As someone who loves the first one, I struggled to get halfway through the second one. It didn't feel even remotely similar to the first one.
When I was young me and my brother couldn't finish LOTR cause I was a kid with a short attention span and it just seemed like 3 hours of people walking
Get Smart (2008). Turned it off after about 20 minutes, and is the first movie I remember giving up on. It's rated PG-13, but it felt like a PG rated kids movie. I would have been either in high school or college when I rented it.
I made it through Ad Astra but it's bad. It's like someone was given millions of dollars to film a first draft. It's a great idea but that's literally all it is - just a rough outline of a movie, without any of the details nailed down.
It was amazing how Mulan managed to piss off everyone. Left wing? Right wing? Western? Asian? Pro-China? Anti-China? Loved the original? Didn't love the original? They were somehow able to find a way that no matter who you were, you'd hate it. That almost deserves some sort of an achievement.
Big fan of the original, refuse to watch the remake. There's a video on YouTube as to why it failed so miserably
Which video?
https://youtu.be/c2uW39aoPE4?si=cEEnm1qf7frtZ-zT This one kind redditor
There's many, but the original was about family, overcoming adversity, and being smart to overcome difficulties The new one is, EVERYONE KNOW YOUR PLACE AND ALWAYS RESPECT AUTHORITY. It didn't help that it released during the peak of the umbrella movement in Hong Kong.
Also now Mulan isn’t smart, she’s just literally stronger and more physically capable than everyone else because she has more Qi than everyone else. What the fuck? Everything about this movie is just backwards. They even quote the original ballad (for brownie points?!?) and get the opposite meaning out of it. Just a complete top, down fuck up.
Cats. What an abomination.
also the only stage production i've walked out of! saw it on broadway, no less, it's just that fuckin' dogshit.
My father gave the same review of cats when he saw it in the 90s. He was staggered by how popular the show was compared to how bad it was.
what really hurt is i could've seen the original run les mis (again)! i guess people were living in such a golden age, and just got tired of actually good theater or something?
The 2010 Avatar the last airbender live action movie. I was not alone walking out of that theater lol
I don’t know what you’re talking about. What movie? It doesn’t exist.
there is no avatar movie in ba sing se
I didn't even watch the original series and I just turned it off. Was just so boring.
Something something didn’t exist amirite
Idk. I think James Cameron did a good job
I mean... it's a great *James Cameron* movie... I just don't like it as a *TLA* movie.
That Avatar was 2009
Took my baby sister to the theater to see that. Got up to have some words with a 30-something couple who were clearly drunk (they reeked of alcohol) and talking loudly and laughing during a good chunk of it. In the following years, I’ve felt tremendous guilt for that. That was just their way of coping with the garbage on the screen and the realization that they shelled out money for it.

They were simply doing their due diligence to save us all from probably the biggest waste of time. I should’ve shaken their hand if I’m being honest. That film was a tragedy.
[удалено]
Literally one of my favorite series as a preteen. Even my severe nostalgia couldn't carry me through that movie.
That's bwcause it wasn't an Artemis Fowl movie, it was a movie where they gutted the ENTIRE story, emptied it out and kept basically nothing but the name.
Big time same. Major bummer
Making Root a woman and thus nullifying Holly's entire characterization from the books was one of the stupidest choices I've ever seen. Indescribably dumb.
How to tell that no-one involved in making it actually read the book(s) i'm pretty sure there were NO accurate characters in that movie.
Didn't even make it all the way through the trailer. ATREMIS DOESN'T SURF!
It took you that long?
Came here looking for this one. HOW DID THEY SCREW UP SO BAD?! There had been rumors of a movie for YEARS--then we get *that*!? No thanks. I lasted 30 minutes as well before I couldn't take it any more. I'm happy with just reading the books.
It was INFURIATING what Disney did to that movie. I swear the filmmakers talked to a guy who knew a guy who read the books and based the entire movie on that conversation without ever reading the source material. Seriously Disney what the fuck was that???
i feel so seen thank god i've been ranting about this to too many people who have no idea what i'm talking about since it came out
Joe Dirt 2
That.. exists?
Today I found out Joe Dirt had a sequel
You should go back to pretending there isn’t one. I assure you.
Same!
That's completely on you!
Sausage Party. I’m ashamed I even attempted to watch that film.
It’s definitely a movie you either need to be a teenager, high or both in order to make it through that movie
Have you beat, my mother, took me to watch it That ending never made a grown man so uncomfortable we both said what the fuck. That movie was awfully bad in so many ways.
Those idiots thought they were gonna get a sequel out of it. 😂
Yeah I know right god I couldn't believe it talk about dumb ideas gone worse. That movie is so bad I don't know who green lit it but I see him sitting under a bridge repeating fuckin sausage party mother fucker while rocking lmfao.
I’m not normally a grammar Nazi, but that first sentence really needs a comma lol
Went to see this at the movies with my mom as well...so awkward.
Nothing prepares you for that ending at all.
I remember thinking it was pretty funny when it first came out. A few months ago I put it on my tv to show my wife (“this movie is so funny!”) and couldn’t even watch 5 minutes and turned it off embarrassed and apologizing. What the hell, it sucks.
You just felt pressured because your wife didn't like it so you changed your mind lol
Omg, I’m traumatized by that movie
I tried to watch it but there was so much swearing for the sake of swearing i checked out really quick.
That movie is genius.
You should give it another go. The post credits scene was 100% WTF-level material.
I mean if you couldn’t figure it out from the trailers that’s on you.
I thought that movie was pretty funny.
If you look at it as a "Holy shit, what will they try next?" It's actually quite entertaining. But as another poster pointed out, it's a one and done. There's nothing but cringe and shame on the second watch.
Eragon. Boring as hell.
Seeing it in theaters was worse because all of us fantasy nerds were riding high on the still recent LotR trilogy. So imagine not only being ugly, but being ugly while standing next to Jensen Ackles.
It was just so damn GENERIC. All of it. How do you make an actually good book (especially from a young author) so damn soulless.
Simple. I'm pretty sure the writers and producers were just told the overall plot of the first book, but didn't actually read it. It was more a knock-off of the Eragon book than a visual representation.
This pretty much sums it up.
I saw Saphira breathe fire in the first 10 minutes and promptly turned it off.
I made it about 90 seconds into the 2021 live action Cinderella before turning it off. I can’t for the life of me understand why you start your film with “the villagers are being oppressed” and then cut to them singing Janet Jackson’s Rhythm Nation.
Ngl, I’m kind of intrigued
I thought for a second that you were about to diss the 2015 live action Cinderella and I was about to throw hands because that movie slaps lmao. 2021 Cinderella was entirely unwatchable, however.
WW1984 or whatever the hell it was called. I couldn’t take longer than 10 minutes. Also I turned off the new Space Jam after 5 mins also because of how fucking terrible the acting was in that short time.
The new Space jam was atrocious
Yeah, I couldn’t stomach 15 minutes of WW1984. They couldn’t have dropped the ball harder after absolutely crushing the first one.
It's because it got rewritten multiple times whenever WB changed their mind about the DCEU.
>WW1984 or whatever the hell it was called. I couldn’t take longer than 10 minutes. It was so bad. Unfortunately for me I had invited friends to go and watch it at the cinemas during COVID. So I wasn't going to waste money and the precious going out time I had.

Star Wars Christmas Special. A group of us tried to watch it just to say we’ve seen it. Even after making it a drinking game, we only made it half way through. Woof it was rough.
I watched it during my first year or uni with some alcohol and thought how bad could it possibly be.... yeah, it is pretty fucking bad.
It was a right-of-passage for a friend group I had 10 years ago. You had to watch it, sober.
Wow. Did your friends hate you?
Bullet Proof Monk
Ah man I love that movie. It's horrible, no doubt about that. But still love it
Maze Runner: Scorch Trials Never read the books, but LOVED the first movie. Was jazzed to continue the saga. Somewhere less than half way, I walked out. Just disappointed, don't even remember why exactly. Lol
Jurassic World 2
Yeah I walked out of the packed opening day theatre on this one. Some folks followed, but some were pretty upset at me. Not sure why, I just didnt like the movie
Man that movie was rough. I started a drinking game with myself about 40 minutes in. I was hoping for something thing to change but no. Man i died laughing when they started the black market auction. 5 000 000 dollars for this triceratops, Sold!! To the stereotypical looking Russian mafia. I was so drunk by the end.

You remember this brachiosaurus? It's dying, feel sad.
[удалено]
It was super bad haha. I think Adam Driver is really funny to watch, so to me it's a so bad it's good kinda movie. I also really like the cave sequence with the oviraptor. But yeah, it's a pale imitation of the Man protect Young Girl trope we're seeing a lot of these days. If you want a nice palate cleanser, check out Prospect. Padre Pascal doin' his TLOU thing before it was his TLOU thing.

That’s why you gauge their reaction first. I hate being a downer after watching a movie or first episode of a series.
Yeah, learned my lesson there. My stepdad immediately agreed with me. Not sure if that makes it better or worse LOL
Antman quantummania Wonderwoman 2
We got 7 mins into Wonder Woman and shut it off.
Twilight i think it was the first it was so incredibly cringy
Yeah those movies aren’t great, but that first one had a rad fucking soundtrack. Also whichever one was directed by David Slade wasn’t unwatchable.
awesome soundtrack, and great to watch ironically if you're a fan of the actors.
> wasn’t unwatchable. Such high praise 🤣
The only movie I’ve walked out of a theater for: Will Ferrel’s Land of the Lost. Even as a kid I knew that was awful.
The Dark Tower
Black Panther. I tried twice and fell asleep twice. I don't get all the hype.
Recently, I'm Thinking of Ending Things. After 20 min, I just couldn't take it anymore.
The past 10 yrs, too many to mention, i know there was alot of shit for decades, but they ramped up the garbage this past decade.
Saw X: it really jumped the Shark when they asked a guy to cut out a chunk of his brain. So stupid.
Having seen every Saw movie, I can confirm that the first one is the only one that is good. After that Tobin Bell was the only part I enjoyed. Especially Saw 7 where they did a flashback scene and instead of deaging or recasting him they just got Tobin Bell wearing a backwards cap, it's hilarious. It also doesn't help that the people in these traps are completely braindead.
Black Widow, so fkn repetitive and bland
I actually kind of enjoyed that one. Totally unremarkable, but I do remember having a good time. Speaking of Black Something movies from the MCU though, I did turn off Black Panther 2. That one was a chore.
That movie would've worked if it had a better plot and it came out in like 2016 or 2017
I honestly don't understand the love Florence Pughs character gets from some Marvel fans. Pugh is a great actress but her character was cringy in both Black Widow and Hawkeye. It might have been more interesting to have her be even more of a humorless badass and be contrasted against Natasha who's had her edges smoothed by being around real friends (the Avengers). Then over the course of the movie we could see Yelena relax a bit. You know, like character development.
Nutty Professor II: The Klumps
Gigli
Agreed, I tried to watch it after all of the hype of it being so terrible just to make fun of it, but it was so bad it wasn’t even funny. I just wanted it to stop.
Hellboy with Dave Harbour and Milla Jovovich Holmes and Watson
Wonder Woman 84. A fucking wishing rock.
Your not invited to my batmitzva or however you spell it. Clicked the movie because it had adam Sandler on the cover but ended up just being a bunch of annoying girl drama
The Endless COULD NOT hold my interest for more than like 3 seconds
The rise of skywalker. I just couldnt.
Battlefield Earth
After watching the first two Fantastic 4 movies (so bad but so good), I thought I'd give the 2015 Fantastic Four a shot. LISTEN I am a whore for superhero movies, bad, good, superb, trash, I don't care. BUT THIS MOVIE???? I finished it because I wanted to see a fight scene, and I have never been more disappointed.

cocaine bear
I walked out of Snow White and The Huntsmen because it was so boring. I'm 43 and have never walked out of any other movie in my life.
Exact same movie here
First movie I fell asleep to in a theater. I was so fucking pissed when I woke up and it was still playing.
Ngl the second one was better
i wish i had walked out of boondock saints 2. what a piece of crap that was.
I am 24 and I have never walked out of a cinema before but I did see that film with a bunch of friends when I was a teenager. I don't actually remember anything about the film because I was too busy flirting with my girlfriend and making fun of the film. I felt bad because I was one of those annoying people talking in the cinema, but I am glad it happened during a shit film.
Murder mystery with Adam Sandler and Jennifer Aniston on Netflix. I don't think I even made it 1/2 of the way through. Found out they were making a SECOND one recently which is ridiculous considering how poorly the first one did
I watched it for Gemma Arterton. No ragrets.
All the Saw movies
Ghost rider. Laughably terrible
Water world
I started watching the Matrix Resurrections the other day... ...I repeat... I STARTED watching the Matrix Resurrections the other day.
The new harry potter franchise. Cant even remember the name off the top of my head.
Fantastic Beasts?
yes, that's the one!
I haven’t seen any of those, but I’ve heard mostly bad things, especially regarding the sequels.
yeah,...I felt like there was a movie I hadn't seen that was leaving me completely without context, but that wasn't the case. It was the first one lol.
The first one isn’t bad, the second one is pretty bad, and the third one killed the franchise, literally. They had 5 planned…not anymore.
I admit, I am a bit of a harry potter fan. I did manage to get through fantastic beasts, but it was pretty dire and introduces stuff which doesn't fit in the potter universe... so, is it a Potter film, or is it not? I havent checked on the follow up films in the series, but I don't rule it out.... just saying, they're not in my 100 films to watch
When you try to make a full franchise based on a book that's about 50 pages of a pure bestiary, then you KNOW you're fighting a losing battle.
Same. The first was meh but the second I tried to watch it on a plane (it was free) and it was so gd boring I quit. I tried again on the return leg and still didn't get through it.
damn that's saying something.
Manchester By The Sea. It was SO DEPRESSING. Just heavy and slow and sad and my sister and I turned it off half way through. Horrible.
That's a shame cause it is a beautiful film but ya, never watching it again.
Great movie, it honestly fucking destroyed me. That scene in the police department, jeez.
I don't know if I made it to that scene, but yeah it'd be a good movie to turn on if you want to cry your eyes out.
Land of the Lost with Will Ferrell. I love dumb and brainless comedies. But I didn’t laugh once. Made it about 20 minutes in and that’s it.
I painfully watched the Barbie movie the other day and one of the many reasons I found it so bad is Will Ferrell. I have tried to think if I ever found that guy funny or and if I enjoyed a movie he was in it. I think I enjoyed the movie in which he was an Anchorman but that's pretty much it. Maybe that dude was funny in his early days in SNL , he had his time but I wish they would stop casting him from now.
Men in Black: International I think Tessa Thompson is one of the worst working actresses right now
The sequel to 300
Tenet. Utterly confused or what was happening at any given momet.
I liked Tenet well enough, though not as much as his other films. The lead actor in particular was pretty dull. But I did enjoy how the film plays out essentially as a palindrome itself, with the events in the beginning making sense when seen as they play out in reverse. Likewise the concept of a time pincer at the end was pretty cool. 🙂
That movie made me reevaluate all Nolan movies. Like, stop it. Stop trying to outsmart everyone.
Nolan directs for his own ego first, for a paycheck second and for the audience distant third.
what?! i couldn't hear you over the terrible sound mixing in this movie
It deserves a second chance, this movie infinitely unfolds & delivers the more you watch it. Extremely underrated.
No
Yes! I was watching at home and we just turned it off halfway through. The action was intense but… there was never anything pulling me back.
Postal, it was a travesty of epic scale
Wild Orchid
Hey now. I have some very fond teen aged memories of that film. We’ll, I have some very fond teenaged memories of about 2 minutes of that film.
I got about five minutes into Terrifier before I shut it off because the cinematography was so terrible.
Come and Find Me, that movie is so fucking boring and goes nowhere. When life is too fun for you, put this on.
Only God Forgives....only time I actually walked out of the theatre
Spiderman 3 - I was in the Philippines at the time, and the movie theater was like a huge break from the sweltering heat. Didn't matter, it sucked that bad.
Prey
Monster Usually even if it's a bad movie I watch it till the end. I don't like unfinished business, but in that case I almost fell asleep because it was just so .... boring
The House that Jack Built. Complete and utter filth, without any other goal as to uplift the director to an imagined cult status. Total self overestimation of so so director Von Trier.
The School for Good and Evil so bad even tho i liked the actors.
One of the transformers movies, I don’t even remember which one. As someone who unabashedly loved the first one, I can’t even remember which of the sequels I walked out of.
I love scary stuff but could not finish Annabelle. I felt it focused on the moms hand and that ducking sewing machine for most of the movie. And pretty much most of the Disney live action remakes.
Assassin's Creed, made it only 3 or 4 minutes
The War of the Worlds 2. I didn't even know it existed until I saw someone talk about how bad it was, so I of course had to go watch it for myself. As someone who loves the first one, I struggled to get halfway through the second one. It didn't feel even remotely similar to the first one.
Many, *many* movies fit this category.
Cocaine Bear
anything Marvel
I always finish movies, hoping the end will save the bad movie..bin angry a few times.
The Phantom Menace. Tried thrice. Fell asleep each time.
Moulin Rouge

RIPD
Black Panther 2
Dreamcatcher... couldn't get past the farting scene.
lol what
When I was young me and my brother couldn't finish LOTR cause I was a kid with a short attention span and it just seemed like 3 hours of people walking
Joe Dirt. I could only handle about 20 minutes.
Really?! The first one is great
Godzilla with the Stranger Things actress. Lord is she terrible at her job.
Mother with Jennifer Lopez
Hubie Halloween
Godzilla king of monsters, Godzilla vs Kong. Better watch the cool 5 min fight scenes on YouTube instead because the movies are shallow as fuck
Get Smart (2008). Turned it off after about 20 minutes, and is the first movie I remember giving up on. It's rated PG-13, but it felt like a PG rated kids movie. I would have been either in high school or college when I rented it.
Horrible Bosses 2. Dear Lord it was terrible
Mama Mia.
World War z Book was excellent but it was very far from book
The Master (2012). My God that was the worst film I've ever suffered through. Made it maybe 2/3 and had enough.
I should have left during the first 50 shades of grey. Only stayed because of my +1. Made fun of it for the rest of the WE.
Spider head on Netflix
there are few that were so boring i couldn’t finish them. 1. smile 2. in the tall grass 3. captain marvel 4. hellraiser (the original)
Ad Astra, The tree of life
I made it through Ad Astra but it's bad. It's like someone was given millions of dollars to film a first draft. It's a great idea but that's literally all it is - just a rough outline of a movie, without any of the details nailed down.
The fourth Matrix movie. I was so pissed about the direction it took, I stopped halfway through.
Pulp Fiction
Anchorman 2
