The Cable Guy, Ace Ventura 2 It took Liar Liar and the Truman Show for Jim Carrey to get back into my good books.
The Spirit Not even Samuel L. Jackson and a scantily clad Eva Mendes could rescue this.
Richard Tracy To this day, I've never been able to make it to the end.
Jurassic Park 2: Lost World I was so hyped for JP2 but Spielberg took damn near three hours to say: "That T-Rex wasn't so bad after all". Dinosaurs in the city seemed like the coolest idea ever, but by the time they finally arrived, we were beyond caring.
Tenacious D: Pick of destiny Started off so well, but then someone got the bright idea of not having any jokes for 20 minutes straight.
Hook More long winded shmaltz from SS, seriosuly; how many of you were rooting for the captain?

Aww Kash, Jurassic 2 is my favorite of the series!
The 2 worst films I've ever seen, so bad that I almost walked out of the cinema, are
"8mm" starring Nicolas Cage - it was beyond disturbing, it made me feel sick.
"Random Hearts" with Harrison Ford and Kristin Scott Thomas - the single most dull film I've see in my life.
There are plenty of B movies I've watched on DVD, but it's not fair to count them, films like "The Net 2.0" and "War Games 2".

Silent Hill, Four Weddings And A Funeral and Alone In The Dark (2005) are the first ones that come to mind.

The Hunt for Red October, The Hunt for Red October, The Hunt for Red October, The Hunt for Red October. Oh, were we supposed to name more than one?

Pauly Shore, Stephen Baldwin, stumbling into an eco-dome they mistake for a shopping mall when they are looking for the mens room. Then trashing it. Hilarious.
Oh, and if you need any more info, remember this. The hermetically sealed, time-locked, controlled atmosphere dome had windows that opened...
Be Kind Rewind is a masterpiece by comparison.

I felt like I was being tortured, while watching it.
They should show it to prisoners at Gitmo, and we would have every location of every Al Qeida and Taliban group in a matter of minutes! Plus the precise latitude and longitude for osama's secret cave hideout!

I agree Jay...not too many movies I shut off in the middle, but "Be Kind, Rewind" was one of them. I remember seeing the preview and being super excited, seeing some cool 80's references...but darn it was awful.
I also really struggled getting through "Eyes Wide Shut"...I know I might get some flak for dissing a Kubrick film, but this was painful...went to the theatre to see it when it came out, and would have left in the middle...were it not for all the nudity Posts: 2148 | From: Nova Scotia, Canada | Registered: Aug 2007 | Site Updates: 0

I never liked Natural Born Killers. Any movie where they use a hand held camera is too annoying to watch. Cool World. I never got through it. Shanghai Surprise, not good...

I liked Unbreakable but then again others probably think some of the things I like suck too. The Talented Mr. Ripley, Alone in the Dark, Dumb and Dumberer, and Battlefield Earth were stinkers to me.......

Disturbing - yes, but awesome for me!

I liked Silent Hill, probably more so because I played the entire video game series. Alone in the Dark wasn't a very good flick, but had good CGI.

I disagree with that. I love that film!

Seriously? Not the greatest movie ever, but I wouldn't call it the worst.
OK, now a couple of my own - The Animal with Rob Schneider. You wanna talk about a BAD movie. I had to force my way through this one big time. Sundown: The Vampire in Retreat was pretty awful for me too. Sorry all you Bruce Campbell fans....though he wasn't too bad in it.

-Mac and Me; still the worst theatrical experience for me; even at age 6 I could tell they were just knocking off E.T. without any attempt at originality or heart. Thank God they never did make the sequel they promised at the end (unless of course they give the honors to Mel Brooks...)
-Sandler's Going Overboard. While he usually tries to be funny, unlike so many of his contemporaries these days, this early effort could quite possibly be the worst comedy ever made. Not a single thing is funny at all; moreover, the film isn't even arranged in a rational manner, making me wonder if the editor got drunk after realizing how bad the film he was putting together was.
-Surf Ninjas; Leslie Nielsen deserved better than this, forced to act as a Dr. Strangelove knockoff type in the middle of a film so shallow--and devoid of rational plotting without any sustinance--that by the end of the film you'll wonder if you've just been abducted by aliens, because you'll forget what happened in the last 2 hours of your life.
-Celtic Pride; a reasonable enough premise by Judd Apatow earlier in his career that gets so mismanaged in execution that you'll turn off your VCR at the end feeling rather angrier than you have in a long time, especially since the supposed payoff pay nothing believably off; even the great talents of Dan Aykroyd and the always underrated (this doesn't do much to help, though) Daniel Stern can't save a ship that's sinking the moment it leaves port. Now, with more rational people behind the camera and a desire not to settle for a Hollywood ending, this could be a good flop to remake at some point in the future...
-Disorganized Crime; disorganized is certainly right; I can't remember anything at all that happened in the darn film, or what it was even about, or even what genre it was supposed to be. That's all you need to know.
-Cheaper by the Dozen; vicious hateful piece of trash not fit to show your children; yes, I have to say it like that. A perfect encapsulation, in a way, of all that was wrong during the Bush Jr. years, showing anyone with half a brain to forget what they're trying to say on screen, because like most people would say about the Bush Jr. administration, the filmmakers are lying through their teeth about their so-called message, which is really: hate thy parents and thy shall get anything you want. If I could have, I would have jumped through the screen and beaten all 12 kids bloody, perhaps to death in the worst cases, because they were all materialist lice whom their father would be commended for walking out on had they had the guts to take that rational course. If I'm not mistaken, holding on to things irrationally is what sent Anakin Skywalker down the path to sociapathicality, which, regardless of your opinions of the prequel trilogy, is a valid point to make; all 12 kids would have been prime disciples of the Emperor in that universe, as they make Anakin's mistakes here 10 times over, and yet we're supposed to applaud them for it. Steve and Bonnie Hunt deserve much better than this.

Remembered another one which I thought was shocking - both for certrain characters, the complete lack of any suspense or surprise in the plot, and all round general boredom :
Star Wars Episode 1 - The Phantom Menace.

I know people like the killer Mick Taylor in Wolf Creek. That's what made it so disturbing for so many Aussies, is that he reminded us all of someone we know. Bit rough around the edges but has a heart of gold, goes out of his way to help... but Mick had just that one little flaw underneath all that - the homicidal maniac bit!

As far as terrible mainstream movies go, there are way too many for me to list. Now days, Hollywood makes at least 10 crappy films for every one I even kind of like.
