RT: The Worst Films of the last 10 Years

Tref · 09-30-2009, 10:23 AM

From Rotten Tomatoes:

The Worst of the Worst

For all the many movies I have seen in the last ten years I somehow managed to avoid most of the films on the list, though not all of them ...

Guilty
1. Half Past Dead
2. Battlefield Earth

Despite the reviews I am still curious to see the Roberto Benigni film, although I know the experience will be full of pain and misery.

I've seen:

The New Guy
Babylon A.D.
88 Minutes
Street Fighter: The Legend of Chun-Li
Battlefield Earth
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever

None of them were good movies. But I can think of many worse movies i"ve seen. Part of being a truly awful movie, in my opinion, is the people involved thinking they're doing something really good. Nobody making Ballistic though they had even a good genre movie going (though it truly is an awful movie). Wild, Wild West, however...

I haven't seen a single movie on that list.

Three of the ones I've seen were seen on airplanes. Further proof of airline sadism.

By the way, I didn't think 88 Minutes was all that bad. Just an extremely mediocre genre picture.

I saw Testosterone. Even the delicious eye candy was not enough to save that flaming bag of turd.

*phew* - I've dodged every bullet on that list. But I too have long been curious about the Benigni Pinocchio. I've heard that the longer Italian version (without the American voice-over track) is preferable.

So is it worse to be listed #100 on the list or #1?

I guess #1 is the worst, it has a 0% ripe vs #100 6% ripe.

LSPoorEeyorick · 09-30-2009, 12:10 PM

Phew. My career has only been connected to 5 of them.

Egads I've seen a ton of them. In my own defense most of them I rented and Madzie watched.

98- Cheaper by the Dozen 2
83 - Doogal
79 - Pluto Nash
63 - Yours, Mine and Ours
60 - The Perfect Man
58 - Christmas with the Kranks
56 - Because I said so
46- Material Girls
41- Zoom
40 - Down to You
38 - Happily Never After
36 - The Whole Ten Yards

If you a fan of Larry the Cable Guy and the lesser Wayans offspring then it would seem you are way out of alignment with the nations cinema critics.
