- DirectorOliver StoneStarsWoody HarrelsonJuliette LewisTom SizemoreTwo victims of traumatized childhoods become lovers and psychopathic serial murderers irresponsibly glorified by the mass media.The King of pretentious films! It's so boring I counted the minutes for it to end (it was on the big screen, so I couldn't fast it forward). Wastes a lot of acting potential, amazing shots and everything else on a mindless plot that goes nowhere.
- DirectorVictor FlemingGeorge CukorSam WoodStarsClark GableVivien LeighThomas MitchellA sheltered and manipulative Southern belle and a roguish profiteer face off in a turbulent romance as the society around them crumbles with the end of slavery and is rebuilt during the Civil War and Reconstruction periods.Once, this was my "worst film ever". I watched it when I was a child and found it to be too long, boring and pointless (and the killing of the horse infuriated me). Then I grew up and watched it again... Just to find out that, aside from all that I already thought about it before, I would add that ALL characters are absolutely detestable! It's just not the worst film ever because there was a Tarantino in my way...
- DirectorAlejandro JodorowskyStarsAlejandro JodorowskyHoracio SalinasZamira SaundersIn a corrupt, greed-fueled world, a powerful alchemist leads a messianic character and seven materialistic figures to the Holy Mountain, where they hope to achieve enlightenment.The Queen of pretentious films (because the King is "Natural Born Killers", no contest!)
- DirectorJames CameronStarsLeonardo DiCaprioKate WinsletBilly ZaneA seventeen-year-old aristocrat falls in love with a kind but poor artist aboard the luxurious, ill-fated R.M.S. Titanic.Boringly obvious plot, extended thanks to a budget of hundreds of millions, which were spent in hell only knows what, because the special and visual effects are ridiculous, even comparing with those of twenty years earlier "Star Wars"!
- DirectorPier Paolo PasoliniStarsPaolo BonacelliGiorgio CataldiUberto Paolo QuintavalleIn World War II Italy, four fascist libertines round up nine adolescent boys and girls and subject them to 120 days of physical, mental, and sexual torture.Horrible acting and literally no plot.
- DirectorTom SixStarsDieter LaserWinter WilliamsAshlynn YennieA mad scientist kidnaps and mutilates a trio of tourists in order to reassemble them into a human centipede, created by stitching their mouths to each others' rectums.Dumb characters, only shaded by stupid plot.
- DirectorTom SixStarsLaurence R. HarveyAshlynn YennieMaddi BlackInspired by the fictional Dr. Heiter, disturbed loner Martin dreams of creating a 12-person centipede and sets out to realize his sick fantasy.Characters as dumb as those of the first film, but even more annoying. The story goes nowhere (literally).
- DirectorTom SixStarsDieter LaserLaurence R. HarveyEric RobertsTaking inspiration from The Human Centipede films, the warden of a notorious and troubled prison looks to create a 500-person human centipede as a solution to his problems.Not as boring as the previous films, but fills 99% of its screen time with non-related trash. It has just one joke at about 59min.
- DirectorSrdjan SpasojevicStarsSrdjan 'Zika' TodorovicSergej TrifunovicJelena GavrilovicAn aging porn star agrees to participate in an "art film" in order to make a clean break from the business, only to discover that he has been drafted into making a pedophilia and necrophilia themed snuff film.End predictable from the first scene. Really!
- DirectorRobert DykeStarsSarah ButlerDamon DayoubCharles ShaughnessyA long forgotten ancient spacecraft discovered on Earth. Investigations carried out by Scout transport her to the moon whereupon she meets the impressive machines preserving the wisdom of that long lost civilization.No plot, no story, just random ideas, without explanations, joined randomly on editing room.
- DirectorShane CarruthStarsAmy SeimetzFrank MosleyShane CarruthA man and woman are drawn together, entangled in the life cycle of an ageless organism. Identity becomes an illusion as they struggle to assemble the loose fragments of wrecked lives.Pretentious and boring. After a while, I hated all the characters. Too bad they didn't all die.
- DirectorPanos CosmatosStarsEva BourneMichael J RogersScott HylandsDespite being under heavy sedation, a young woman tries to make her way out of the Arboria Institute, a secluded, quasifuturistic commune.Pretentious, boring and frustrating. When all is set for a great showdown, it just ends!
- DirectorCharlie KaufmanStarsPhilip Seymour HoffmanSamantha MortonMichelle WilliamsA theatre director struggles with his work, and the women in his life, as he creates a life-size replica of New York City inside a warehouse as part of his new play.Despite the talented cast, the story goes nowhere. Its pretentious ideas bury the amazing stage building under a pile of meaninglessness.
- DirectorKeir BurrowsStarsYaiza FigueroaPhilippa CarsonTom Barber-DuffyA scientist faces the question of what makes us whole and if there is a part of us that is not part of this physical world when she discovers how to travel through a worm hole.Anti-scientifically pretentious. I "learned" with it that the number seventeen is "Quantum Theory"!!!
- DirectorKevin R. AdamsJoe KsanderStarsJohn KrasinskiCharlyne YiJason SudeikisA friendship with a top-secret robot turns a lonely girl's life into a thrilling adventure as they take on bullies, evil bots and a scheming madman.Annoying characters on a dumb plot, playing with stupid ideas on an unreal scenario.
- DirectorS. ShankarStarsRajinikanthAishwarya Rai BachchanDanny DenzongpaA brilliant scientist creates a humanoid robot to protect mankind, but things go awry when human emotions are programmed and inner turmoil causes the robot to switch sides."El Chapulín Colorado" on the big screen! Unfortunately, it tries to be serious, so it turns out seriously boring and even annoying at several points.
- DirectorDario ArgentoStarsJessica HarperStefania CasiniFlavio BucciAn American newcomer to a prestigious German ballet academy comes to realize that the school is a front for something sinister amid a series of grisly murders.Uninteresting story, completely lost in a boring plot that makes no sense most of the time, a bunch of dumb and/or irking characters, a direction that goes nowhere and a noisy and annoying soundtrack that serves only to awake the viewer every ten minutes.
- DirectorBrad AndersonStarsDavid CarusoStephen GevedonPaul GuilfoyleTensions rise within an asbestos cleaning crew as they work in an abandoned mental hospital with a horrific past that seems to be coming back.The story is somewhat interesting, but the plot drags and, at a certain point, a boom mic gets more screen time than some of the characters, completely destroying the mood: I simply couldn't see the characters from then on, I could only see the actors reciting their lines till the obvious end.
- DirectorJerry ZuckerStarsPatrick SwayzeDemi MooreWhoopi GoldbergAfter a young man is murdered, his spirit stays behind to warn his lover of impending danger, with the help of a reluctant psychic.Watchable... Once... In fast forward... Some scenes do drag, but the worse are the "rules of the game", which change every time it is convenient, like a murderer dies and is immediately taken to hell-or-whatever, another one ultimately causes the death of a man and is given a ticket to heaven... What?!
- DirectorMike MitchellWalt DohrnStarsAnna KendrickJustin TimberlakeZooey DeschanelAfter the Bergens invade Troll Village, Poppy, the happiest Troll ever born, and the curmudgeonly Branch set off on a journey to rescue her friends.Ugly characters designs, disgusting colour palette, terrible lighting, horrible soundtrack (highlight for atrocious cover version of "True Colors", instead of Cyndi Lauper's original recording), unlikeable characters, and every single thing wrong in a moralist story with a boring (and many times irking) plot.
- DirectorSteve TrenbirthStarsZoe AxelrodShelley BermanMichael ChiklisThe legend of secret pass is a charming CGI animated movie inspired by American Indian mythology,Unlikeable teenager with an attitude is the main character of a mess of a plot. It tries to play smart with the theme of death, making it sound "cute", but all it manages to be is boring and annoying: just because it's about a magical realm, it's not excused to lack basic logic.
- DirectorSteve 'Spaz' WilliamsStarsKiefer SutherlandJim BelushiEddie IzzardAn adolescent lion is accidentally shipped from the New York Zoo to Africa. Now running free, his zoo pals must put aside their differences to help bring him back.A lion from NYC Zoo gets lost in an island in the middle of nowhere... No, this is not "Madagascar" (2005). Despite the similarities and lots of common elements, don't get yourself fooled: there is not a single entertaining moment in this never ending boredom procession. The villain is the lamest thing ever created, by Disney or any other producer. Even the trailer is boring!
- DirectorFederico FelliniStarsMagali NoëlBruno ZaninPupella MaggioA series of comedic and nostalgic vignettes set in a 1930s Italian coastal town.Saying it is overrated is an euphemism. There is no story, just a more or less (mostly a lot more) random collection of scenes without any guiding theme, except location, that is, the characters are in that town and, so, "things happen"... But go nowhere, just like the characters...
- DirectorChristian NybyHoward HawksStarsKenneth TobeyMargaret SheridanJames ArnessScientists and American Air Force officials fend off a bloodthirsty alien organism while at a remote arctic outpost.The military scientists find an alien spaceship frozen under the ice. What's the best thing to do? Blow it up, of course! Amazingly, it manages to get even worse, after that!
- DirectorDon SiegelStarsKevin McCarthyDana WynterLarry GatesA small-town doctor learns that the population of his community is being replaced by emotionless alien duplicates.It's so boring that, after a while, I even forgot what the story was supposed to be about!
- DirectorChi TianStarsPaul 'Maxx' RinehartJustin J. WheelerToni ThompsonHoffin gets trained to rescue his parents and take on Nian. He has to go on a quest to find the 12 sacred animals.Having a computer doesn't mean one can do "actual" computer animated films. This is the new golden standard of how to NOT make an animated film! The story is silly and the jokes/gags stink (when they make any sense).
- DirectorXiaopeng TianStarsLei ZhangZijie LinWenlun WuThe all-powerful Monkey King was imprisoned by the Gods for 500 years, but when a child releases him from his curse, the Monkey King must now save an innocent village from the evil Mountain Lord and his monstrous army.Whose was the idea to make the main character NOT the Monkey King?! Annoying kids ARE NOT fun, or funny!
- DirectorDon HallChris WilliamsStarsRyan PotterScott AdsitJamie ChungA special bond develops between plus-sized inflatable robot Baymax and prodigy Hiro Hamada, who together team up with a group of friends to form a band of high-tech heroes.
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsMatthew McConaugheyAnne HathawayJessica ChastainWhen Earth becomes uninhabitable in the future, a farmer and ex-NASA pilot, Joseph Cooper, is tasked to pilot a spacecraft, along with a team of researchers, to find a new planet for humans.This is the kind of film that happens when they don't hire a scientific consultant! Visuals and action are entertaining enough to watch it till the end, once, but that's all they can do.
- DirectorShane CarruthStarsShane CarruthDavid SullivanCasey GoodenFour friends/fledgling entrepreneurs, knowing that there's something bigger and more innovative than the different error-checking devices they've built, wrestle over their new invention.The first few minutes in the beginning are pretty good, until the opening credits are over and people start talking... It would have been an interesting 30 min episode of "Outer Limits", but is pure boredom as a full featured film.
- DirectorEli RothStarsJay HernandezDerek RichardsonEythor GudjonssonThree backpackers head to a Slovak city that promises to meet their hedonistic expectations, with no idea of the hell that awaits them.This film made me understand the expression "torture porn", and I didn't like the meaning. Not actually because of the torture, but the total lack of a story.
- DirectorEli RothStarsLauren GermanHeather MatarazzoBijou PhillipsThree American college students studying abroad are lured to a Slovakian hostel and discover the grim reality behind it.So, this time, it has a story... But it's lame and goes nowhere (besides making no sense).
- DirectorNimród AntalStarsKate BeckinsaleLuke WilsonFrank WhaleyStranded in an isolated motel, a couple become the unsuspecting subjects of a snuff film.This is one of those films that makes people hope no character will survive...
- DirectorJulia DucournauStarsGarance MarillierElla RumpfRabah Nait OufellaA young woman, studying to be a vet, develops a craving for human flesh.Predictable from the second scene (just because the first one made no sense).
- DirectorFrancis Ford CoppolaStarsGary OldmanWinona RyderAnthony HopkinsThe centuries old vampire Count Dracula comes to England to seduce his barrister Jonathan Harker's fiancée Mina Murray and inflict havoc in the foreign land.Bright and colourful... That's definitely NOT how a horror film should be filmed. Only the talent of the actors save this from being a complete disaster.
- DirectorKenneth BranaghStarsRobert De NiroKenneth BranaghHelena Bonham CarterWhen the brilliant but unorthodox scientist Dr. Victor Frankenstein rejects the artificial man that he has created, the Creature escapes and later swears revenge.Horror film turned into a disaster by bright lighting and a boring storytelling.
- DirectorJames WanStarsCary ElwesLeigh WhannellDanny GloverTwo strangers awaken in a room with no recollection of how they got there, and soon discover they're pawns in a deadly game perpetrated by a notorious serial killer.Escape game played with live humans. Interesting concept, but not enough plot to justify watching again.
- DirectorJoss WhedonStarsRobert Downey Jr.Chris EvansScarlett JohanssonEarth's mightiest heroes must come together and learn to fight as a team if they are going to stop the mischievous Loki and his alien army from enslaving humanity.I could tell the ending of this film by watching the trailer! Yeah, because, as Tony Stark pointed out, they have The Hulk...
- DirectorDenis VilleneuveStarsAmy AdamsJeremy RennerForest WhitakerA linguist works with the military to communicate with alien lifeforms after twelve mysterious spacecraft appear around the world.Entertaining enough to watch till the end, but the premise is just ridiculous: can one study and learn a superpower?
- DirectorPaul WeitzChris WeitzStarsJason BiggsChris KleinThomas Ian NicholasFour teenage boys enter a pact to lose their virginity by prom night.It was a chore to watch once... Guess what, it has (too many) sequels!
- DirectorWes CravenStarsNeve CampbellCourteney CoxDavid ArquetteA year after the murder of her mother, a teenage girl is terrorized by a masked killer who targets her and her friends by using scary movies as part of a deadly game.Brainless characters and an unbelievable plot (not in the good sense).
- DirectorKôji ShiraishiStarsMizuki YamamotoTina TamashiroAimi SatsukawaThe vengeful spirits of the Ring and Grudge series face off.The story is fine, but the pace is uneven. It's like riding at full speed on a bumped road, the thrill is lost by all the shaking.
- DirectorMari AsatoStarsAoi MorikawaAyami NakajôKôdai AsakaA student at a conservative all-girls school tries to unravel the connection between a series of deaths and what appears to be a cursed photograph.I haven't played the game, so I can't compare it to this film, but if the premise is that people go ghost hunting using cameras, they should at least have cameras!
- DirectorKeenen Ivory WayansStarsAnna FarisJon AbrahamsMarlon WayansA year after disposing of the body of a man they accidentally killed, a group of dumb teenagers are stalked by a bumbling serial killer.The source material was dumb, and this added "boring" to it.
- DirectorJason FriedbergAaron SeltzerStarsSean MaguireKevin SorboCarmen ElectraA spoof of 300 (2006) and many other movies, TV series/shows/commercials, video games and celebrities. King Leonidas of Sparta and his army of 12 go to war against Xerxes of Persia to fight to the death for Sparta's freedom.A series of gags, which gets old really fast.
- DirectorBong Joon HoStarsSong Kang-hoByun Hee-BongPark Hae-ilA monster emerges from Seoul's Han River and begins attacking people. One victim's loving family does what it can to rescue her from its clutches.The story makes no sense, the direction mixes comic junk in the most tense moments and most characters are so irking, I wished the monster would have eaten all of them in the first minutes.
- DirectorNeil MarshallStarsShauna MacdonaldNatalie MendozaAlex ReidA caving expedition goes horribly wrong, as the explorers become trapped and ultimately pursued by a strange breed of predators.The claustrophobic scenario is thrilling, but the lack of intelligence of some characters makes this hard to ever watch again.
- DirectorJon HarrisStarsMichael J. ReynoldsShauna MacdonaldJessika WilliamsRefusing to believe her story about cave-dwelling monsters, the sole survivor of a spelunking exploration gone horribly wrong is forced to follow the authorities back into the caves where something awaits.The film starts where the previous ended, but "resurrects" some characters that couldn't possibly have survived, making this sequel feel lame.
- DirectorZack SnyderStarsGerard ButlerLena HeadeyDavid WenhamIn the ancient battle of Thermopylae, King Leonidas and 300 Spartans fight against Xerxes and his massive Persian army. They face insurmountable odds when they are betrayed by a Spartan reject.Lots of action, but difficult to rewatch.
- DirectorFrank MillerQuentin TarantinoRobert RodriguezStarsMickey RourkeClive OwenBruce WillisAn exploration of the dark and miserable Basin City and three of its residents, all of whom are caught up in violent corruption.Powerful storytelling, but I'm not sure I would ever watch it again.
- DirectorRobert RodriguezStarsHarvey KeitelGeorge ClooneyJuliette LewisTwo criminals and their hostages unknowingly seek temporary refuge in a truck stop populated by vampires, with chaotic results.Full of action, but somewhat weak on thrills.
- DirectorQuentin TarantinoStarsJohn TravoltaUma ThurmanSamuel L. JacksonThe lives of two mob hitmen, a boxer, a gangster and his wife, and a pair of diner bandits intertwine in four tales of violence and redemption.Boredom meets pretentiousness: only Tarantino could do that so "well"!
- DirectorClive BarkerStarsCraig ShefferDavid CronenbergAnne BobbyA troubled young man is drawn to a mythical place called Midian where a variety of friendly monsters are hiding from humanity. Meanwhile, a sadistic serial killer is looking for a patsy.The "Cabal" version is much better than the studio version, but it is still hard to watch more than once.
- DirectorBob ClarkStarsDan MonahanMark HerrierWyatt KnightIn 1954, a group of Florida high-school guys try to help their buddy lose his virginity, which leads them to seek revenge on a sleazy nightclub owner and his redneck sheriff brother for harassing them.Teenager sexual exploitation film... I watched when younger, but I simply cannot imagine myself enduring it again.
- DirectorBob ClarkStarsDan MonahanWyatt KnightMark HerrierThe naughty high schoolers of Angel Beach High now seek revenge on a group of KKK religious fanatics and corrupt politicians who want to shut down their Shakespeare production after they cast a Seminole transfer student in the lead.Boring...
- DirectorJames KomackStarsDan MonahanWyatt KnightTony GaniosAs graduation nears for the class of 1955 at Angel Beach High, the gang once again faces off against their old enemy, Porky, who wants them to throw the school's championship basketball game because he's betting on the opposing team.Unbearable...
- DirectorJeff KanewStarsRobert CarradineAnthony EdwardsTimothy BusfieldAt Adams College, a group of bullied outcasts and misfits resolve to fight back for their peace and self-respect.Another teenager sexploitation film... I watched when younger... Then I grew up and this kind of film didn't age well...
- DirectorGore VerbinskiStarsDane DeHaanJason IsaacsMia GothAn ambitious young executive is sent to retrieve his company's CEO from an idyllic but mysterious "wellness center" at a remote location in the Swiss Alps, but soon suspects that the spa's treatments are not what they seem.Starts well, with some interesting visuals, then decays and eventually crashes...
- DirectorWes BallStarsDylan O'BrienKaya ScodelarioWill PoulterThomas is deposited in a community of boys after his memory is erased, soon learning they're all trapped in a maze that will require him to join forces with fellow "runners" for a shot at escape.Fast paced and entertaining, but it is just 1/3 of the story...
- DirectorWes BallStarsDylan O'BrienKaya ScodelarioThomas Brodie-SangsterAfter having escaped the Maze, the Gladers now face a new set of challenges on the open roads of a desolate landscape filled with unimaginable obstacles.This second part couldn't keep the same speed as the first part...
- DirectorWes BallStarsDylan O'BrienKi Hong LeeKaya ScodelarioYoung hero Thomas embarks on a mission to find a cure for a deadly disease known as "The Flare".... And the third and last piece landed hard. Not an actual crash, but the ending feels like too much was lost.
- DirectorSean Patrick O'ReillyStarsKiefer O'ReillyMichelle O'ReillyChristopher PlummerAfter visiting his father in Arkham Sanitarium, young Howard Lovecraft accidentally uses the legendary Necronomicon to open a portal to a strange frozen world filled with horrifying creatures and a great adventure.The horror is in the story: it's boring to death!
- DirectorRand RavichStarsCharlize TheronJohnny DeppJoe MortonAfter an explosion in space and subsequent two-minute radio-out period, two astronauts return home to their wives. Slightly it's revealed that they're not the same as they were.Interesting idea, but the film drags too much for too long. This is one of those that could have been an excellent "Outer Limits" 30 min episode.
- DirectorVictor SalvaStarsGina PhilipsJustin LongJonathan BreckA brother and sister driving home through isolated countryside for spring break encounter a flesh-eating creature which is in the midst of its ritualistic eating spree.Dumb teenagers on a road trip to be slaughtered by some unexplained indestructible evil.
- DirectorVictor SalvaStarsJonathan BreckRay WiseNicki AycoxSet a few days after the original, a championship basketball team's bus is attacked by The Creeper, the winged, flesh-eating terror, on the last day of his 23-day feeding frenzy.Still no explanations, but, this time, the evil creature meets some people (more or less) ready to fight back, meaning, a little more action than just screaming teenagers.
- DirectorDan ReedStarsMichael JacksonWade RobsonJoy RobsonAt the height of his stardom, the world's biggest pop star, Michael Jackson, began long-running relationships with two young boys, aged between seven and ten, along their families. They now allege that he sexually abused them.It doesn't bring any new evidences to the Michael Jackson's case(s). It's too long (over four hours) and a simple search for the names of the two accusers may be a lot more enlightening. In the end, it seems to be all for the big money.
- DirectorDarin FerriolaStarsWilliam BassettHoward BergerJaime BergmanTwo thieves down on their luck get hired to steal the Rock of Lazarus, an ancient relic capable of returning evil souls to earth.The plot has some surprises, but it doesn't know exactly what it wants to be, a comedy or a supernatural horror.
- DirectorJörg ButtgereitStarsBernd Daktari LorenzBeatrice ManowskiHarald LundtA street sweeper who cleans up after grisly accidents brings home a full corpse for him and his wife to enjoy sexually, but is dismayed to see that his wife prefers the corpse over him.There is almost no plot, it's more a picture of a weird couple and their sexual fetish for corpses than an actual film.
- DirectorSion SonoStarsReina TriendlMariko ShinodaErina ManoA girl's life cascades into chaos as everyone around her suffers a gruesome fate while she becomes less certain of who she is and her once-once normal life.A virtually real world or a really virtual world? The plot simply makes no sense. It's thrilling, but the total lack of logic makes it impossible to watch again.
- DirectorKinji FukasakuStarsTatsuya FujiwaraAki MaedaTarô YamamotoIn the future, the Japanese government captures a class of ninth-grade students and forces them to kill one another under the revolutionary "Battle Royale" act.Somewhat interesting concept (that actually defined a film type and spawned so many copies), but sounds too unreal.
- DirectorFrank HenenlotterStarsRick HearstGordon MacDonaldJennifer LowryOne morning, a young man wakes to find that a small, disgusting creature has attached itself to the base of his brain stem. The creature gives him a euphoric state of happiness but demands human victims in return.Unlikeable characters everywhere, a weird story that makes no sense and sexual exploitation of a woman is just too much (on the wrong direction).
- DirectorJugal HansrajStarsSaif Ali KhanKareena KapoorJaaved JaaferiThis is the story of Romeo. A dude who was living the life. He had the works - the mansion to live in, the chicks to party with and the cars to be driven around in. Until one day, the family he was the favorite pet of, decided to move and left him back, abandoned on the mean streets of Mumbai. Romeo is now faced with situations he has never been in before. He encounters four strays, who scare the daylights out of him. But soon, he smooth talks his way into their hearts and he makes friends. Then, Romeo finds love! He encounters the beautiful, ravishing Laila, the most beautiful girl he has ever seen - and he loses his heart to her at first sight. Finally, he encounters a villain! The dreaded Don of the area - Charlie Anna. The Don who everyone is scared of. So hop on to the adventure as Romeo, wins friendship, love and a new life - inspite of Charlie Anna and his gang! Watch how Romeo turns into - Roadside Romeo! This Diwali - Get ready for a barking good time!!Horrible animation, terrible characters, stupid plot and, plus (or, more likely, minus), it's a musical!
- DirectorDaniel De FelippoGustavo Alex GianniniStarsMariano MartínezLuisana LopilatoMirta WonsWhen Jack and Aurora met they'll rely on their friends as a case mistaken identity leads them on an adventure teaching them that it's who you are on the inside that matters most.This is one of the examples of why animated films were better when computers couldn't make them...
- DirectorMarco FerreriStarsGérard DepardieuMarcello MastroianniJames CocoA man walking on the beach near New York City finds the corpse of King Kong. He also finds Kong's orphaned son, and takes it to a friend who lives in the city, and they decide to raise it.Random events and an ending that makes no sense, aside from being amazingly boring.
- DirectorEnki BilalStarsLinda HardyThomas KretschmannCharlotte RamplingIn the distant future, Earth is occupied by ancient gods and genetically altered humans. When a god is sentenced to death he seeks a new human host and a woman to bear his child.Dumb characters in a dumb story, resulting in a boring film with a forgettable ending.
- DirectorGreg McLeanStarsJohn Gallagher Jr.Tony GoldwynAdria ArjonaIn a twisted social experiment, eighty Americans are locked in their high-rise corporate office in Bogotá, Colombia, and ordered by an unknown voice coming from the company's intercom system to participate in a deadly game of kill or be killed.A well executed take on the "Battle Royale" (2000), with an interesting ending, although kind of endless...
- DirectorMoon-saeng KimStarsAndrew AblesonCathy CavadiniJoon-ho Chung2142: Pollution and climate change wiped out most of Earth's population. Ecoban city is built to withstand this. Suppression results in revolt. A childhood couple find each other as adults on opposing sides.I don't know how long this is, but enduring it felt like many, many hours of talking and looking and talking more and nothing happening then talking some more...
- DirectorMakoto ShinkaiStarsKenji MizuhashiYoshimi KondouSatomi HanamuraTold in three interconnected segments, Takaki tells the story of his life as cruel winters, cold technology, and finally, adult obligations and responsibility converge to test the delicate petals of love.Poetry in the form of an anime... What ultimately sucks... Want something to happen? Not here, no, it doesn't... Like, nothing at all!
- DirectorMakoto ShinkaiStarsMika ShinoharaMakoto ShinkaiSumi MutohThe love of Japanese high school students Mikako Nagamine and Noboru Tera is tested when Mikako is sent to fight aliens in a distant universe and voice mails to and from Earth become months to years in transmission.Again, poetry in the form of anime... Not so boring, this time, but the lack of an actual ending makes it frustrating.
- DirectorMamoru HosodaStarsRiisa NakaTakuya IshidaMitsutaka ItakuraA high-school girl named Makoto acquires the power to travel back in time, and decides to use it for her own personal benefits. Little does she know that she is affecting the lives of others just as much as she is her own.Like a videogame with a good story, but bad replayability, this anime was entertaining to watch once, but I doubt I shall ever go for a rerun.
- DirectorIsao TakahataStarsTsutomu TatsumiAyano ShiraishiAkemi YamaguchiA young boy and his little sister struggle to survive in Japan during World War II.This is an amazing anime... So powerful that it's impossible to watch more than once...
- DirectorGonzalo López-GallegoStarsWarren ChristieLloyd OwenRyan RobbinsDecades-old found footage from NASA's abandoned Apollo 18 mission, where three American astronauts were sent on a secret expedition, reveals the reason the U.S. has never returned to the moon.Found footage style film... It sinks like a rock...
- DirectorMatt ReevesStarsMike VogelJessica LucasLizzy CaplanA group of friends venture deep into the streets of New York on a rescue mission during a rampaging monster attack.Found footage style film... Ripping off "
Gwoemul " ("The Host", 2006). - DirectorJeremy WechterStarsJulia KellyJohn Anthony WylliamsChristopher DaftsiosOn a mission to bring the Devil to Earth, an escaped demon manipulates a group of friends hanging out on a video-chat. Because this ruthless demon can possess multiple people at once, knowing who to trust is the key to survival.Found footage style film... Using webcams... Interesting idea, but the story makes no sense and it goes for the easy ending for this kind of film.
- DirectorDoug LimanStarsTom CruiseEmily BluntBill PaxtonA soldier fighting aliens gets to relive the same day over and over again, the day restarting every time he dies."Groundhog Day" (1993) with tons of pseudo-scientific explanations... As bad as they get...
- DirectorAndrew DavisStarsKeanu ReevesMorgan FreemanRachel WeiszTwo researchers in a green alternative energy project are put on the run when they are framed for murder and treason.Not so bad action, but inserting phonons in a chain reactor is just too stupid (and they don't even call them phonons!)
