In the Past....TARZAN, The Ape Man (1981) with Bo Derek the movie was so bad I needed glasses after seeing it in the movies.
Recently, has to be last year's The GAMER I needed reading glasses after seeing that load of crap.

i wouldn't say it was the worst i've ever seen but i thought district 9 was pure shit. it started off good but just dragged on and on and even though i wasn't on the edge of my seat or anything when it ended, finally, i was like that's it???? all that for this?
WHAAA? You're crazy man! I loved it!
meh, unless there's a sequel and this was leading up to something i say crap!
cabin fever is another contender, i laughed so hard at this scene when i saw the movie

I recently fell asleep to Hunger, I'm usually up for a good political film, but this was just terrible. Barely any dialogue, and when there was it was a heavy Irish accent, normally I can pick it up after a while but there wasn't enough opportunities. A truly interesting story brought to the big screen in a terrible way. The designer Steve McQueen that recently passed away directed the film. Too much man junk and not enough story for my taste.
The remake of Rollerball, we went to the cinema to see something else but it was full, so the guy behind the desk suggested Rollerball - fucking atrocious it was.
I also though Lost Highway was a load of old pretentious bollocks.
And I so love Zooey... how could she lower herself like that?
Yes, there are plenty others that may be worse. But for me you have to factor in expectations as opposed to those that seem to want to be bad from the start.
Somebody beat me to it , but I was totally going to say Wickerman with Cage. Unbelievably bad.
Can't believe someone said District 9. Thought it was a great sci-fi flick. Ten times better than Avatar IMHO.
- Extreme Movie (Least funny comedy I've ever seen.)
- The Love Guru (Alredy mentioned, I think.)
- The Women (No, just no.)
- New In Town (Renee Zellweger had some pretty shoes in this though.)
- Semi-Pro (I couldn't watch the whole thing.)
- Van Helsing (Now, I love Hugh Jackman. But that film is just wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong.)
I always feel bad when someone rents these films. Unless it's someone I don't like. :twisted:

I'm a Nic Cage aficionado. Of course I was on top of the Wicker Man.

Seriously?! District 9 is one of the BEST films I have ever seen. It dragged on and on? The film was less than two hours long. You must have the attention span of a four year old. I'm curious now to know what some of your favorite films are or at least some films you think are good.

seriously, dick, a movie doesn't have to be 4 hours to drag on and on. it seemed like some parts just weren't needed and put in there to make time. the guy gets stuff in his face and transforms into a 'prawn' and the haitians want his arm to use the weapons and he helps an alien and his kid escape.....hooray. it just didn't do it for me.

many of those are a lot longer than district 9 so no, i do not have the attention span of a 4 year old

I'm going to have to defer to Rolling Stone's film critic Peter Travers review on this one. It might the shortest review I've ever seen of his. He said about Marley and Me.

Death Becomes Her, saw this on a rainy day in summer camp in 1992. Taking Woodstock also sucked pretty bad, I thought they would show a lot more of the music but it was quite the letdown.

I agree with The Gamer. Normally I'll watch an entire movie, regardless of how bad it is, but in this instance I had to turn it off.

Been hittin' the Thighmaster, Torgo?
A.I.?
You guys must only watch "the greatest" movies if these movies qualify as your worst movie ever...
I suggest you watch Battlefield Earth so that you have a new least favorite movie. It is impressively awful.
I also though Lost Highway was a load of old pretentious bollocks.
...ah, the haunting "Torgo theme".

one of the worst films that comes to mind is, "good guys wear black" starring chuck norris.
horrible film.

Starship troopers is a great film!
The worst film I have ever seen has to be Batman and Robin
