    Inception. YAWN. And not as mindblowing as everyone made it out to be.

    I liked it but I didn't get how people couldn't "get" it - it wasn't that mind blowing... or maybe I didn't get it so much that I don't even realise I didn't get it? Maybe that was the point?...

    Fast and the Furious. It isnt realistic.
    Anything with Tom Cruise
    Saw, all of them. No point... just death.
    Harry Potter... Sorry fans.
    Pretty Women

    THIS for sure. My only reaction was "Okkkkkkk......"

    Yep. Boooooorrrrinng. And Dirty Dancing. I know it's on all the time, but I'm pretty sure I've never actually seen it all the way through. (I'll probably see it sometime soon and love it now. lol)

    Oh, and Zero Dark Thirty. No. Just no.

    I boycotted Titanic as I can't stand Leonard DiCraprio - even the trailers & Celine bloody Dion songs make my skin crawl!

    Twilight, The Hunger Games.... I will never see those either, thank you very much, I can't think of a movie I DID watch that I didn't like, I normally move along if it doesn't grab me, and steer clear of Hollywood blockbuster type crap... oh.... Ace Ventura Pet Detective! What the actual hell...

    Most revently - Les Misrables, dull, too long, music was boring, predictable and indifferent story line. It REALLY annoyed me when people clspped at the end.
    In fairness to the storyline and its predictability, you do know that it is a 150 year old novel, right?

    I haven't seen the most recent iteration so I can't speak for that, but I love the 2000 miniseries starring Gérard Depardieu and John Malkovich.

    Yes I know :-P I didn't know the storyline though, deliberately, and with all it's praise I thought it was going to be better.

    Ya, another vote for "Inception" here......my son kept telling me what a great movie it was so I watched it and thought wtf???

    Also "The Dark Knight". How many violent explosions do we need to see before we say enough already?

    Is that Ace Ventura or The Mask? I'm sorry, I can't tell one awful Jim Carey movie from another.

    Will Smiths I Am Legend....I know everyone loved it, I couldn't wait to leave the theater...

    Agreed! This made top top of my most hated movie list as soon as the dog was hurt.

    OMG how awful is it?! We will be the odd ones out though I bet, people seem to be obsessed by that crud! I was forced to watch it when I was 18 by some guy that thought it was hilarious... I just sat there confused & edging further & further away from him...

    I couldn't finish Avatar. It was so boring with a storyline that's been done about a bajillion times. I can't believe how obsessed people were with it.

    I can get behind the enormous hate of the twilight movies. I always wondered if it could have been redeemed with a cast where 90% could actually act instead of a cast where 10% could sort of act. IIf it didn't mean that I was a cradle robber I would totally acknowledge that staring at Tyler Lautner after gaining all those muscles was enough to just run the movie on mute, but I'm not going to mention that (at least not until he's legal, somewhere around breaking dawn). I liked the books, but watching that first movie was enough for my eyes and ears to get together to discuss drinking the poison koolaid, and to never watch another movie from the series again.
