And why
I have two
Wimbledon - so bad my maths teacher turned it off after 5 minutes
Angus thongs and perfect snogging - just girls chasing boys - worst plot line ever

Independence day

I fell asleep.

Absolute top is east is east it's marketed as a comedy but it's s long line of misery, domestic abuse and then ooh a fake vagina lands on granny oh the laughs

It must be almost 20 years old now I saw it at cinema and am still enraged by it

50 shades. Gave me nightmares I only went to keep a friend company

I refuse to watch any Oscar winning filmI have tried in the past and come to the conclusion they are all of a certain type of film.

So you're missing out on

Casablanca
From here to eternity
In the heat of the night
Midnight cowboy
The godfather pts 1 and 2
Chinatown
My Fair Lady
West Side Story
Jaws
The Artist
Unforgiven
No country for old men

Your loss.

I'm addicted to lifetime thriller movies on YouTube, find them strangely

Comforting

seventhgonickname · 01/12/2018 10:54

Very controversial but I hate Gone with the Wind.

Thespiderbesideher · 01/12/2018 10:57

The Happening. Nothing much happened and the ending was beyond stupid.

Vagndidit · 01/12/2018 11:00

The English Patient. 😴

Fifty shades of grey - pretty sure it made me want to be asexual it was that UN-tittilating
Boring boring boring

Kingsman.
I hate hate hate this film.

Plot revolves around the idea that arch villain steve jobs-alike will release a special pulse through his free-wifi phones which turns everyone in 10ft radius into mindless killers until turned off, thus killing off 90% of the population and leaving only the smug and superrich who have been forwarned and hide in super villain’s secret mountain lair. Fine.

Sub plot has hero ensuring his council-estate mum locks herself away from his 2yr old sister so she doesn’t hurt her whilst he disables the phone maguffin. Okay.

Film TOTALLY ignores the obvious corollary that every other baby and little child must have been horrifically murdered by their loving parents during the five minutes the phones were activated. Fuck. That. Shit.

Jurassic Park. It was so dreadful we didn't stay until the end.

OftenHangry · 01/12/2018 11:15

Twilight saga. All of them. Just horrible.

Lizzie48 · 01/12/2018 11:18

I didn't think much of Titanic tbh. I suppose it was spectacularly filmed but it was soooo long. For the first two hours at the cinema I felt like shouting at the screen, 'Just get on and hit the iceberg!'

JoyofSticks · 01/12/2018 11:19

Mine's a kid's film. I used to take my DCs to Saturday morning cinema and once we watched The Emperor's New Groove, most definitely the worst film I have ever had the misfortune to be present for, no idea how I managed to sit through it and we even watched the S Club 7 film which, compared to that was excellent. Now I'm a dab hand at sleeping through films but back then I wasn't.

Hushnownobodycares · 01/12/2018 11:29

The Science Of Sleep

The Imaginarium Of Dr Parnassus

Mama Mia (but I'm getting the kids to get Here We Go Again for Christmas just to be sure Grin

Lost In Translation

The Human Centipede

Les Miserables

I stick on jumble sale DVD's while working out and consider myself a bit of a conoisseur of shite celluloid Grin

mothertruck3r · 01/12/2018 11:31

Probably not the worst, but one I remember thinking was overrated, overacted, boring and predictable; The Sixth Sense. It was incredibly hyped at the time as being groundbreaking and having an amazing twist that was obvious to anyone with a brain.

badlydrawnperson · 01/12/2018 11:32

Sliding doors. Full of massive plot holes and instead of being excited to see each of the possible outcomes I found I couldn't care less what happened.

Gravity for 100% predictable plot although the effects were clever.

Lizzie48 · 01/12/2018 11:35

Also, a kids' film 'Emoji'; I just couldn't see the point of it!! Grin

margaritasbythesea · 01/12/2018 11:45

Bitter Moon by Roman Polanski. I actually felt sick afterwards through sheer boredom.

RayRayBidet · 01/12/2018 12:13

Anything with superheroes in it.

They have stunts and CGI instead of, you know, a fucking plot.
Liking comic books is not a niche, nerd pastime any longer unfortunately.

MuseumOfIdiots · 01/12/2018 12:17

The English Patient.
We all felt we were slowly dying alone in a dark cave for that one.

BillywigSting · 01/12/2018 12:20

The English patient.

Kept waiting for something interesting to happen and then it was over.

Very boring.

My DP often talks about a drunken New Year's Eve where he and mates ended watching that film. He said it was proper shit but he has fond memories of it.
