supergran71 Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 (edited) For me, there are 2 Moulin Rouge - with Nicole Kidman and ?? but I still like Nicole Kidman The Deerhunter - with Robert de Niro and Meryl Streep. This put me off both these actors - R.d N forever, but MS coming around to a little. Anyone else have favourite hates ?

Weave Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Stephen King's Sleepwalkers, it was the first time I have ever walked out of the cinema before a film finished. Dances with the wolves, Kevin Costner in the wilderness, not a pretty sight. Dude, where's my car? Why? Rosemary's Baby Didn't her baby look like a teenage mutant ninja turtle? (a baby one of course) Clive Barker's The Plague I love Clive Barker but this film was just awful, awful! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kernow_reader Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 For me, anything that dosen't have Johnny Depp in it! No, seriously, I don't like The Deer Hunter either. I also don't like Twister/Twisted/Hurricane/Eye of the Storm, whatever it's called with that girl from ?"As Good As it Gets" where she chases hurricanes. The Matrix made my head spin, in fact any sci-fi fantasy films rewire my head. I cannot follow them at all. But that's not to say I hate them.

Purple Princess Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Being John Malkovich has to be the worst movie I have ever sat through, I just didn't get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beef Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 The closer you get, that is a HORRIBLE MOVIE Underground president both spring to mind, but I see so many movies I struggle enough keeping track of the good ones never mind the bad ones.

~Andrea~ Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Being John Malkovich is one of my favourite films I loved the Matrix but HATED the sequel (part 2) Most sequels are awful. Erm - saw a pretty dreadful comedy a year or two ago in the cinema, Employee of the month I think it was called. I'm sure I'll think of some more.

marlyly Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 I saw Babylon AD a couple days back in cinema - I think that's definatley a contender. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owen Posted September 7, 2008 Share Posted September 7, 2008 Battlefield Earth, nothing in this world could force me to watch this again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kylie Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 At the Earth's Core would be right up there for me. I decided to start watching some 'bad' sci-fi flicks because I thought they'd be so bad they'd be good, if you know what I mean. It started and finished with this movie. I can't bring myself to watch any similar flicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roland Butter Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 (edited) I'm by no means a film buff, but my list would include: The Cat In The Hat - my daughter "forced" me to watch this a few years back. I know it's a children's film, but it would insult the intelligence of a two year old (my daughter loved it, by the way ...) The English Patient - must be the slowest film ever. I started watching it, then went on a fortnight's holiday, and when I got back still nothing had happened ... The Talented Mr Ripley - " a stylish psychological thriller", apparently. I'm afraid it by-passed me - I was bored rigid! And more or less anything with Robin Williams in - I just can't stand the gurning. Should have stuck to Mork and Mindy Edited September 8, 2008 by Roland Butter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Aw, I love Robin Wiliams. I think he's one of the most naturally funny men I've ever seen (in interviews). Having said that, I particularly enjoy his more serious roles, such as One Hour Photo and Dead Poet's Society (one of my very favourite movies).

~Andrea~ Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 One Hour Photo is a great film. And I loved The Talented Mr Ripley. I just remembered a truly awful film I was forced to sit through last Christmas. Catwoman with Halle Berry. It was dreadful. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KW Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 We walked out on some AWFUL Eddie Murphy thing a few years ago...so bad, I can't recall the name! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mia Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 Mr and Mrs Smith was pretty bad. Also, anything by M Night Shyamalan - not the genius the critics make him out to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kell Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 If I had actually paid to see The House of Mirth (I got to see it free because I worked at the cinema), I might have had to go back to the cinema with a gun and start shooting. That was 140 minutes of my life I'll never get back. I would have left the screen but I was jammed in the middle of a row and didn't want to disturb the other viewers who, very strangely, seemed to be enjoying it. Fortunately, there was enough light for me to read by and I had a paperback with me - yes, I actually read during half the film and resented being distracted from my book by that dross!

scottishbookworm Posted September 8, 2008 Share Posted September 8, 2008 mr and mrs smith was terrible I feel it shouldn't have been released because the plot lines were so weak! the movie put me to sleep! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amanda Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 "X-Files: I Want to Believe." I was so mad that I had wasted $10 on that crapy movie! I new the reviews were not good, but I grew up on X Files, and I figured for nostalgia's sake it would be fun, but it was just upsetting. It was ****.

I loved The House Of Mirth! Both the book and the movie. The worst film I ever saw was a Finnish movie about one of Finland's most important authors, Aleksis Kivi. It started with two men wondering in the woods as if high on some strange mushrooms and only went worse from there. It's the only movie where I've slept.

Should have stuck to Mork and Mindy Lucky we're all different. The English Patient is one of my all time favourites (but can see it would probably appeal more to females than males) And Robin Williams is a hilarious guy. I love him. Did you see Good Morning Vietnam? You may like him in that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janet Posted September 10, 2008 Share Posted September 10, 2008 The Cat In The Hat - my daughter "forced" me to watch this a few years back. I know it's a children's film, but it would insult the intelligence of a two year old (my daughter loved it, by the way ...) I saw that (dragged by my daughter too!) and thought it was terrible too. I think perhaps if I'd taken some hallucinogenic substances beforehand then it might just have been bearable! Chocolat - I hated what they did to the book so much. Recent ones have included Over the Hedge and the awful Wall-E (I know these are kid's films but they were soooo boring!). Oh, and something with Jon Cusak in it - based on a Nick Hornby novel about a bookstore (I think) which I actually fell asleep towards the end of!
