Date movie.
It has alisonhannigan in and we thought it might be light hearted
It was dire. Utter crap. And I have a high threshold for crap, can watch most rubbish as long as its entertaining

The wedding planner

Project X

Fast and furious franchise. I think they are comedies without punchlines and giggle at how anyone can take them at face value. DH likes them in a not at all ironic way Hmm

Clint Eastwood film, Unforgiven (?)

Only film ever we walked out of half way through.

Kathsmum · 05/03/2018 00:27

Quite liked hotel for dogs but in a similar theme. Beverly Hills chihuahua 2! I kid you not.

Anything with Nicholas cage & long hair, especially ghost rider, rather like otherwise

i saw unforgiven unfotunately was trying to impress a boyfriend was so boring

YANBU I actually went to the cinema with a friend to see this. In my defense it wasn't pre-planned. We wanted to go to the cinema and chose what to see when we got there. It was so bad I wanted to leave halfway through. But my friend didn't like leaving the cinema before the film had finished. I think that film might have changed her opinion. I learnt to leave something if I'm not enjoying it when I saw a terrible play. I stayed after the intermission because I hoped it would get better. It didn't. I wished I'd left at the intermission. Total waste of my time to stay watching something I don't enjoy.

SharonBotts I thought trainspotting two was utterly self indulgent and it was sad to see the great "choose life" soliloquy reduced to a cross middle aged grumble.

Date Movie is a piss take, like the “Scary Movie”s and Not Another Teen Movie, of a lot of films and it being total crap is kinda the whole point, but you know that right? Hmm

Mummyoflittledragon · 05/03/2018 03:04

When dd was younger she loved Moshi Monsters. Dh took her and I thought I’d got out of it. Except it was on on a kids a.m. and she’d been pestering so I took her against my better judgment then when it came out on sky she watched it again in front of me 😱. I don’t think it would have been a hit 30 ago years before merchandising was a thing. Mummy cruelty I believe.

Luckily more discerning these days she decided Mune is crap within the first 10 mins.

JAMMFYesPlease · 05/03/2018 03:47

Open Water and Buried. Nothing can be as bad as either of those two wastes of time.

Gingernaut · 05/03/2018 04:49

Thanks for reminding me? How could I forget?

The recent Ghostbusters reboot.

The plot! The script! The characters!

Fuck me, that was a bad film.

cariadlet · 05/03/2018 05:49

Open Water is great. I found it really tense and scary.

Also disagree with the new Ghostbusters. It's hard to find a film that dp, teenage dd and myself will all enjoy, but that one was a real success.
The next day I bought a dvd of the original Ghostbusters to show dd. I'd loved it as a teenager, but I don't think it aged well. It wasn't nearly as funny as I remember and there were a couple of very dodgy scenes in it.

The Happening.

Pretty sure it’s by M Night Shalayalayawhayever and it’s got Matt Damon (or Mark Wahlberg, who knows?) in it.

Spoiler: nothing happens.

DarthNigel · 05/03/2018 06:48

Magnolia. It has Tom Cruise in it and it rains Frogs. Pretentious shite. Exh made my Dad and I go and see it with him. My dad actually fell asleep!

BigSandyBalls2015 · 05/03/2018 06:51

I paid £4.99 last night to buy a Virgin movie for two days ....... The Party, I thought it would be good as Timothy Spall is in it ..... I can't even begin to describe how odd it was!!

gingergenius · 05/03/2018 07:05

Another offering: Armageddon. Because training drillers to be astronauts is such a good idea. Utter drivel. The Core also but i love it because it's ridiculous!

comingintomyown · 05/03/2018 07:10

Farewell My Concubine.

TossDaily · 05/03/2018 07:13

There Will Be Blood.

Never been so fucking bored in my whole life. I went completely numb from the tits down.

Toadinthehole · 05/03/2018 07:20

I love Magnolia and Farewell my Concubine.

Rememory · 05/03/2018 07:21

Still talk about how bad it was with the kids - even though we saw it 8years ago - Scott Pilgrim vs. the World

DontOpenDeadInside · 05/03/2018 07:24

The last Resident Evil. Been a massive fan since playing it on the PlayStation with my brother after school. Loved all the films and was so looking forward to the conclusion. I actually had no idea what was happening in any action scenes as the camera jumped so much. A 1 second bit of film had 3 cut scenes. I was honestly the most disappointed I've ever been for a film.

Downsizing has a good premise, but the story didn't do it justice.

whoami24601 · 05/03/2018 08:00

Can't believe we've got to page 13 and no one has said Pudsey the Dog!

It's basically that dog that won X Factor doing tricks, with a crap storyline to facilitate the need for said tricks. Absolute shite!

Went to see it on a school trip, and even the kids came out saying 'that was a bit rubbish, wasn't it miss'. I couldn't disagree!

This 👆 what a terrible film.

SirSidneyRuffDiamond · 05/03/2018 08:37

Clearly none of you have had to sit through the abomination that is Space Chimps 2! The biggest heap of steaming shite ever! Worse than a Hotel for Dogs x100.
