Yesterday I saw the 1999 movie, The Suburbans on the tube. It was supposed to be a comedy and I thought it might be funny because Ben Stiller was in it. How wrong I was. It was beyond horrible. It turns out that the nobody actor, Donal Lardner Ward, in the lead role also wrote and directed the movie. Fortunately almost nothing has been heard of him since.
So as a public service, please list the WORST movies you've seen in the past year so we know not to waste our time on them.
I liked Inglorious Basterds
Gave up on the Hobbit movies after the second one. Huge disappointments.
I prefer to watch movies via Netflix or HBO/STARZ On Demand.
That way, I can stop if the movie doesn’t catch my interest or is too outlandish or is just bad acting/bad script.
Also, I can stop the movie at any time and restart it later.
My Netflix queue has about 125 movies in it all times, so I never run short of anything to watch. Contrast that with some 250 cable channels and nothing to watch on them. Additionally, Netflix and Hbo/Starz have no commercial interruptions.
hummm, I honestly don’t know cause now we mostly ONLY go to movies that are found to be favorably reviewed here. We use to go to a movie every 5-7 weeks or so. It seemed they became more PC in the last 6 years and less entertaining to us.
...just say’en. We love reading movie reviews.
Interstellar.
Critics hated Starship Troopers.
I like I and III.
II, not so much.
They are fun-to-watch movies that should not be taken too seriously.
NOAH
Agree. It wasn’t that it was “bad” as much as it was so darned boring.
Can’t think of the name of it, but it had this black guy that was President of the United States and he thoroughly destroyed it but most of the people loved him so it was OK. But trust me, it’s the worst movie you’ll ever see...
I got about 5 minutes into Cloud Atlas.

Last night I did watch ‘The Whole Nine Yards’ [2000] via Netflix, since it is leaving Netflix on 4-1.
It was entertaining. I sort of like Bruce Willis. Matthew Perry, not so much, but he was okay in this one.
I usually don’t care for comedies and never did like the ‘slapstick’ kind.
I saw MURDER BY DEATH. The ending scene made no sense at all.
100% agree.
I haven’t been to a movie theater in decades. Hollywood is a steaming pile o (SENSORED).
Agree emphatically. Reynolds in a coffin underground. Booh!
But it could have been worse. It could have been Dane Cook.
A parody of “Plan 9 from Outer space”, a Troma production:
“SPACE ZOMBIE BINGO”

really poor
The absolute WORST movie I ever saw (and granted I only saw about 20 minutes of it) was “Perfume: The Story of a Murderer”.
Project Almanac.
Stupid thinking to a supposed brilliant situation.
Looked like it was filmed with a cell phone.
“Gummo.” Execrably horrid.
