The King (I) (2019)

Woeful

[2/10 · 14 March 2020]

Acting dreadful, plot didn't resemble any Shakespeare I've read and the battle scene was comically inaccurate.

3:15 am (2018)

Just about the dumbest, boringest (yes, I know that's not an actual word), rip off I have ever spent 15 minutes fast forwarding through to find something remotely resembling a plot.

Ride with the Devil (I) (1999)

Very underrated.

[9/10 · 5 November 2019]

This is one of my favourite films of all time. The acting is very good, the plot The acting is very good, the plot is interesting and the portrayal of the times seems to be more historically accurate than most other films.

Churchill (2017)

Winston would be rolling in his grave.

[2/10 · 30 October 2019]

No amount of blood, toil, tears and sweat can save this travesty from being confined to the dustbin of history.

Gravity (2013)

Boring as bat droppings

[2/10 · 26 October 2019]

On paper, it's a great script, but it fails miserably in its execution.

Hellboy II: The Golden Army (2008)

More del Toro brilliance!

[8/10 · 26 October 2019]

This bloke just gets better and better. Not far off being my favourite director ever.

Jeruzalem (2015)

Boring!

[2/10 · 26 October 2019]

First rule of a good zombie movie: try not to be boring. On that score, this film is an epic fail.

Dead Birds (2004)

Save yourself the trouble!

[2/10 · 12 October 2019]

I've got suggestions for a better title... "Dead Duck", "Dead in the Water", "Dead Dull"...I could go on.

Hannibal (2013–2015)

Yet another...

[3/10 · 12 October 2019]

Overblown, overhyped, tedious, achingly boring, plodding, pompous and beautifully choreographed lemon.

Ice Queen (2005 Video)

One of the worst films EVER!

[1/10 · 30 September 2019]

I didn't watch more than 5 minutes in total because I kept fast forwarding in the hope something, anything would happen.

Child 44 (2015)

I need to augment my previous comment.

[1/10 · 23 August 2019]

This film contains so many plot improbabilities and impossibilities that I can't help but think the script writers had a secret pact amongst themselves to write the worst ever.

Child 44 (2015)

Awful

[1/10 · 23 August 2019]

The plot is disjointed, nonsensical and absurd. Only saving grace is the cast.

Occupation (2018)

My eyes, my eyes!

[2/10 · 22 August 2019]

Enough said. Oh, wait, apparently I haven't said enough. Ok then, we'll hopefully 'truly awful' gets me over the line.

The Crown (2016–2023)

Initially enticing, ultimately embarrassing.

[3/10 · 18 August 2019]

The depiction of her early life is intriguing, but later it just descends into pompous English poppycock.

Dear Woman (2011)

Has not stood the test of time.

[2/10 · 31 July 2019]

The writers could not possibly have foreseen the #metoo phenomenon, so it's no fault of theirs that this clip falls flat on its face these days.

The House That Jack Built (2018)

Two hours of my life I'll never get back...

[2/10 · 6 July 2019]

Pompous, dull, incomprehensible twaddle masquerading as art.

I Am Mother (2019)

Typical boring American sci fi masquerading as something deeply philosophical.

[2/10 · 9 June 2019]

Honestly, only yanks could like this film. It's about as interesting and profound as 'Lost'.

Churchill (2017)

Awful.

[2/10 · 22 May 2019]

I have nothing further to add. Actually, I must because my review was deemed too short. Historically inaccurate, dreadful acting, etc Hopefully that will get me over the threshold.

Coherence (2013)

Awful

[2/10 · 2 May 2019]

Incoherent, boring, confusing. I can only assume it rated so highly because it is the sort of nonsense that peculiarly appeals to Americans, who seem to mistake this sort of thing (eg, 'Lost') for profound.
