As for movies that were a steaming pile? "Independence Day", the most hackneyed, brain cell losing, ham acted piece of crap film I've seen in years.

Actually, this is another whole class of movies - those starring Will Smith, who plays the exact same character in every movie. He was OK in "Men in Black", annoying in Independence Day, and he almost ruined my enjoyment of "I, Robot" (yes, I still enjoyed it even despite its very tenuous relationship to the stories by Asimov, and despite Will Smith's non-acting.

Well, while I did enjoy "I, Robot," it was in spite of Bridget Moynahan being fully clothed at all times... Damn, I'm surprised that Will Smith wasn't picking splinters out of himself, what with her "wooden acting!" But with her acting talent, she did make him "look good!" (pun intended)
