A few days ago I watched the 2015 movie, "Steve Jobs" on the Tube. One word description: BORING!!! Despite great material to work with, it was one big borefest. Aaron Sorkin's scipt was largely to blame. It didn't feel like real people involved talking. It came off as a platform for SorkinSpeak. You can always tell a movie he has written. It has his peculiar SorkinSpeak which consists of rapid fire chit chat signifying nothing.
Okay, that is my idea of the most boring movie that I have ever seen. What is yours? Remember, this doesn't mean WORST movie, only most BORING movie.
You needed to be high to appreciate 2001.
Then, the Stargate scene ... whoa.
Lawrence of Arabia
I LOVED Chariots of Fire, Shawshank Redemption, and Remains of the Day. Some of my favorite films. So I am surprised to see them here.
I do agree with many of the others.
My vote is for Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, just because it was the first time I went to the movie theater and was actually bored. Looking around at other people. Waiting for the movie to be over. I took my Sunday School class as a treat so could not leave. This was in the 1908s and I remember being surprised, I was bored at a movie.
Oh No!! I had repressed any and all mrmories of Bobby Deerfield until I resd your post. I will find a way to retaliate.
A Wedding by Robert Altman.
Melancholia was a close second but the ending made it almost worth it.
agreed..the second time I watched Force Awakens it got much worse and her acting as well
The original Star Trek Movie.
Roots - Worst example of fantasy and/or propaganda...
Any movie that kills off one of the best scifi characters of all time just stinks.
The Light Between The Oceans is very boring. It came out recently.
“Russian Ark”.
A tour de force of scale, inventiveness, and boring.
Hear me out.
This is a 90 minute “long shot”, a single unbroken take by a mobile camera in real time.
Two thousand actors, in a single vast building - The Hermitage - act out the history of this great and ancient Russian museum/castle, the camera traveling thru time and meeting great historical figures who... talk... and... talk... in Russian... as only Russians can.
It’s a huge film. It’s on a staggering scale. It’s an incredible landmark in cinematic history.
And I dare you to stay awake more than twenty minutes.
Yes and a disappointment.....suppose to be a horror???????
Bo Derek's 'Tarzan and the Apeman' was the first movie I went to that people sat through the credits thanks to her frolicking around in the surf naked while they rolled.
The Sean Penn / Michael J Fox remake of The Thin Red Line
Dune. What horrible movie.
Yentl
Even THAT wouldn’t have been worth sitting through that whole dog of a movie. it was that bad.
