Movies you hate
KharBevNor:
But Van Helsing is so awesome! I've lost it now, but I once wrote a 101 point defence of it as quality entertainment. Although I think I used the point 'Fucking DRACULA' at least 5 times. I have a thing for silly action movies, and silly action + vampires + random plot + lots of classic horror references + vampires versus werewolves action is serious winnage.

I agree with Khar... random silly movies can be great. I liked Van Helsing, the hubby ALMOST kiled me for saying I liked it.. but mih, marmite?
I HATE Rom-Coms. They make my eyes bleed, theyre as bad as BIG tearfests that are deemed "chick flicks". EUGH! An example would be Beaches with bette midler. Kill ME!
I wasn't a big fan of American Beauty.. It just didn't "do it for me". I don't hate it, but I won't change the channel to watch it.
I really really really disliked Tomb Raider Mainly due to the action film notion of a leading bad ass lady. Or MAY have been because the hubby was drooling...

It should have been scientifically impossible to make a movie with all these elements and make it bad... worse than bad, they made it boring. It could have been so cool, but it wasn't even entertaining in it's badness... I dozed off while watching it. In the middle of the afternoon.

I think the problem here is that the bad ass leading lady ends up being trite and unwatchable. Pity, so much potential.
On something of a tangent, I hated SWAT so much I wrote a multi-page (and poorly edited) critique of everything it fucked up. Still on the internet, somewhere.

Not evil. Just juvenile. And not juvenile in the Dude, Where's My Car? way.
I also agree on Donnie Darko. Talk about a movie that was trying too hard.
Oh, and even though I never saw it, I hate What the !$@#$ Do We Know?! on Principle, since i don't believe that cult propaganda films should be allowed to be mass market released like that. (See also Battlefield Earth).
