    Closer and American Beauty were the two most miserable movies I've ever sat through.

    Avatar was just stupid-sparkly blue people who plug their tails into stuff? I also found it very cliche and preachy, basically a plotline I've seen done a thousand times.

    I just saw these two two movies within the last month, and thought they were just terrible....

    Gangs of New York

    Silver Linings Playbook

    I really wanted to like SLP.... I am from the Philly area, love the Eagles, and the premise of the movie sounded good to me. Gangs of New York just happened to be starting when I was flipping channels..... I couldn't watch after about 20 minutes. I think if I had continued to watch I might have called it the worst critically acclaimed movie ever.

    Just rented SLP Friday. By far one of the worst movies I have ever seen! Hello Hollywood this is life. We are ALL living it stop dramatizing it. It was just a stupid movie!

    The Kings Speech. AWFUL.

    I haven't seen it, because the trailer made me want to punch the screen. not a good sign.
    That is one of my all-time favorite movies. I liked it more than I thought I would.

    ME TOO!!!! I loved this movie! We even bought it so I can see it again :laugh:
    Honestly, I get it wouldn't be everyone's cup of tea, but I am surprised people actually hated it!

    And ... Colin Firth!!!

    uuuugh... colin firth.

    See I really liked the story this movie was telling and if you took the teronteno factor out of it it would have been great IMHO

    but you cant so I'm with you guys

    I also hated starwars (yes all of them)

    I hated Dark Knight Rising so much that the first thing I told my girlfriend when I got home was "I'm not sure I want to live in a world where this movie exists."

    No joke, I spent 30 minutes talking to a counselor about it. I had the appointment already for another topic, but the conversation turned to 30 minutes of "How the hell did that happen? Christopher Nolan knows how to do better storytelling than that? What was the point of Bane's mask? Why even bother having Tom Hardy if you're not going to show 80% of his face and are going to muffle his voice?"

    And so on and so on.

    I love watching films, but occasionally I just think "that's 2 hours of my life I'll never get back!"
    3 that spring to mind are Australia, Moulin Rouge and Lost in Translation.

    I hate most Will Ferrel movies. Anchorman sucked. Elf sucked. Blades of Glory sucked. He's not funny AT ALL.

    Totally agree on the Will Ferrel thing. Never found him funny and for the life of my cant understand why people do.

    Its not critically acclaimed,though has rating over 7 on imdb.com. talking about TED seriously pathetic movie by my opinion...I stopped watching it around half an hour in where TED is caught at home with 2 hookers..and one of them is called Savignon Blanc?? is that supposed to be funny?..and finally,the breaking point for me was when in the same scene the S**T on the floor became the highlight of the scene for awfully long time..

    LOL same happened in Dark Skies :laugh: The first half of the movie was amazing,but dear god,did it go downhill in the second...basically the whole movie was about aliens coming to a family in the creepiest supernatural ways and LOL in the finale they literally come kicking and bashing the front door while the dad shoots a shotgun like a BOSS...on something that previously wasnt even present in physical form..or at least could have been questioned :laugh:

    The Artist.

    It was okay, passed the time I suppose, but I couldn't for the life of me see what was so multiple-Oscar-worthy.

    A Thin Red Line was the most boring movie I've ever seen!

    It was awful!

    For those that don't like Nic Cage - he was in two of the greatest movies: Leaving Las Vegas and Wild at Heart.

    really? you picked those two to represent his body of work?

    i'd go with Valley Girl and Raising Arizona off the top of my head.

    Let me get my soapbox in... the...right.. place.. There! Ok... Here we go.

    Avatar was/is one-dimensional eye candy created to appeal to even the most simple of simpletons. Unobtainium? Seriously? This is the metaphor for limited resources? The movie vaguely makes allusions to the environment, evil corporations, the stereotypical Indian warrior myth, buddhism, etc but never really develop them into any kind of subtext. Additionally, Sirgourney Weaver's performance was laughable. i was embarrassed for her.

    If you are going to have Zoe Saldana running around in a bikini in a film, please don't make her look like an 11' muppet. I can't work with that.
