what is the worst movie you have ever seen at the cinema?

[BrickPoet]

Nacho Libre

Six Days Seven Nights
Unbreakable
The Aviator
Phantom of the Opera, which seemed to be someone saying "Christine" over and over again in the dark for 27 years.

I had mercifully blanked that one out.

Op I wish I could 🤣🤣🤣🤣

I haven’t seen the film but the book was the worst book I ever read for many years, until I read Anything for Her by Jack Jordan. Now it’s the second worst.

Straight Story - one more helicopter shot of fields too many.

AI: Artificial Intelligence - the Steven Spielberg film with a Jude Law as a manwhore. Just. Wouldn't. Finish! Painful.

The actual worst one was Bride Wars, but that was a free ticket.

The worst we've paid to see was surely The English Patient. I still don't really forgive my wife for waking me up in the middle of it. She said if she had to suffer it, I did, too!

@Devongoddess I slept through a large chunk of the original Dune. We did a special trip to London with a group of mates to see it too, so we could watch it in a fancy cinema

Daddy Day Camp.

The Kenneth Branagh Murder on the Orient Express. I went along because all my family wanted to see it and thought I should be open minded. But I left the screen half way through. Absolute crap. I'm not a fan of KB anyway. Seems to have a massive opinion of himself while pretending he doesn't.

Fell asleep during midnight showing of one of Arnie's films, many, many, many (30+yrs eek!). The name of which has bizarrely completely escaped me for the first time ever. Quite sure it wasn't The Terminator though. God, this is going to bug me now! Would've been c1990 ish, I think, if anyone wants to help me get it out of my head 😂

Wish I had walked out of more; Natural Born Killers and How to Get Ahead in Advertising, horrible in your face films. NBK pretentious old shite.

Total Recall?

Broken Flowers - deadly dull film by Jim Jarmusch starring Bill Murray. Aimless, pretty much plot-free bollocks which just ....stopped. No resolution, no ending. It's like he just got bored with it. As did we.
The eight remaining people in the cinema looked round in WTF disbelief as the lights came up.

@NoWordForFluffy yes!! That's the one! The irony of the title though...! 😂

@NoWordForFluffy oops, sorry, got overexcited and posted before I'd managed to say thank you! What totally amazing recall you have 😉

If it helps, I also slept through it. But it was on TV, so no wasted money! 🤣

Royal tenebaums.

Cats.

Luckily, it was briefly interrupted by hooded youths (we still got to see the rest) and we were given free tickets for another film - Went to see little women with these which made up for paying for Cats!

Love Actually, I knew I wasn't going to like it but friends who had already seen it convinced me I should go. Pile of absolute shite!

Star Wars episode 3 return of the sith. Everyone in the cinema laughed when Anakin turned evil.

Alexander with Colin Farrell and Angelina Jolie (2004). It was TERRIBLE

There is just so much samey sand!

I took the kids to see Pixels. As soon as I saw 'Happy Madison Productions' flash up in the opening credits, I knew I'd made a terrible, terrible mistake.

Also went and saw some movie about Crawdads or something, it was woeful.

I've seen so many bad films in the cinema. Scott Pilgrim may be the worst, I feel vindicated seeing PPs mention it here! Self-consciously "quirky", misogynistic, boring.

Second place goes to Match Point, the Woody Allen tennis film. Most of the audience were laughing out loud at the dramatic scenes. It was dreadful.
