Oh GOD! I can't believe I forgot this one! This was two hours of pure torture, further compounded by the fact that I had paid for the friggin movie tickets. Totally unfunny, you could see the jokes coming a mile off (and whoever is responsible for the "I'm coming" "joke" ought to be thrown screaming from a helicopter). The gross-out aspect didn't bother me at all -- There's Something About Mary usually has me rolling on the floor, for example -- but the fact that it was actually pretty tame and predictable, while pretending to be risque and daring, really pissed me off.

Anything with Meg Ryan.

I enjoy Meg Ryan muchly. She's certainly not in the same class as Goldie Hawn & Stallone.

Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002) has anyone seen this? For those of you that read rottentomatoes it was rated 0 out 90, yes 90.

In the interest of adding to the list of craptastic films, howsabout "The X-Files"? That's the first movie that was so bad that it actually made me angry.

I *still* want my money back.

Other ones on my list that haven't been mentioned:

"Teen Wolf 2" (What the hell was I thinking?)

"Super Mario Brothers" (What the hell was Mojo Nixon thinking?)

"Life and Loves of a She-Devil" (No one connected to that one was thinking.)

You all should check out the swedish action movie production the last fifteen years or so. It gets extremely pathetic when a swedish studio tries to make one of them glossy , high on special effects Hollywood pieces. With only a tiny, tiny fraction of the budget.

Textbook example is Hamilton

Peter Stormare as special agent Carl Hamilton with Lena Olin as the wife and none other than Mark Hamill as the bad guy Mike Hawkins.

Acting is generally bad, special effects are lackluster and the insane product placement is just unbelievable.

Blearghhh

Amie, you should watch Wings of Desire, a German film of which City of Angels is an Americanized, and far inferior, copy.

Hi Mageth
I would love to watch that and I have checked 2 video stores for it by me and neither had a copy

I am determined to find that film.
