My daughter had to do the book for her AS Eng Lit last year - the book bored her so much that she couldn't read it, so I had to buy the DVD so that she could get the story, and I tried to watch it. I walked out again

The Great Goadsby would have made far better

I hated that film 

Hmmmm, well, my children are responsible for me watching some rubbish films. Imagine how I felt when they prodded me awake in the middle of Pokemon!!!

Boom tish

 

The other one was the first Harry Potter film ... I tried, I really did, but when John Cleese floated out of a table I just thought 'oh sod it' and went to sleep.

 

Honestly, when I think about it,  I don't know what my children got up to in cinemas when they were younger

that the one with Nicole Kidman in it .   the last film that Stanley Kubrick directed (didn't he die part way through production or something)... 

 

yeah... you're right..   that was overhyped & really crap too

I can't say this often enough: - Meet the Spartans

 

This utter shite

 

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1073498/

 

Awful even by the spoof genre's standards

 

The contributors on IMDB articulate the sheer shiteness of this film far better than I could in this post.

 

Friedburg and Selzer are the anti-christ of movie directors.  Painfully unfunny is lavishing praise on Meet the Spartans. I've not seen "Epic Movie", I've heard it's even worse than Meet the Spartans - which I find impossible to believe.

I have. (I'm going back a while)

 

Cloverfield

Jeepers Creepers

Yes, but I rent all kinds of crap.  When it comes to hiring films, I don't have a high quality threshold. If I haven't seen it and Jack Black, Jennifer Aniston or Ben Stiller aren't in it, that's about good enough for me!   A recent one was "Lake Mungo", which is relatively highly regarded but it presents the whole film in a cheaply done mock doc style which becomes tedious within a few minutes - but it continued in that style for the rest of the film. I kept waiting for the film to start but it never did!  Just one mock interview after another about this supposed haunting. I don't know if the film makers thought this style made it more 'real' to the audience but it's film about a haunting that WE KNOW isn't real, so what was the point?

This is being remade with LEO Dicaprio.... hopefully it will be better...

 

The one film I can honestly say I *wanted* to walk out of, was Paranormal Activity... the most boring and pointless piece of shit I have ever seen.  I only stayed in the hope something would happen.. Dreadful film!  Oh and CLOVERFIELD... over hyped piece of RUBBISH!  I hated it!

I loved Inception too.  I just think that people who said it was shit or didn't get it, didn't concentrate fully or simply didn't understand it... I watched it once, and came out very confused.. so the following week, I went again, and genuinely, it fell into place: the whole film made sense.. I think people need to watch it more than once...
