WORST films you`ve ever seen EVER ! - Page 249

I can't believe Kathleen Turner agreed to be in that film.

I am sure when she read the script, she didn't say yeah, let's do this so I can make an artistic statement as an actress.

She did it for the $.

If you look at her film career, she started out well with Body Heat and Romancing the Stone and then it was junk movies with a couple of good films in between them: Prizzi's Honor and Peggy Sue Got Married.

But her choice of movie roles aside from those 4 titles have been dismal.

I am not counting Roger Rabbit as one of her good movies since she only did voice over in there.

Dark Asylum (2001)

One evening we rented this with a friend to see good horror. The actors tried their best but it was ridiculous, unbelievably bad. My top1 worst, no idea how its on DVD.

Harshness much

Still the threads all about personal preference choices

I happen to think it very flawed yet a lot of fun.

But then Kathleen was perfection throughout (Wise cracking cynical wonderful performance too) and as a MinorJoker ... Cough ... Liked re-watching certain scenes

Hell all scenes with Turner or Perkins in daffy though they may be in a plot sense, are worth watching.
Sod the story. Ignore every other cast member ,because banal and boring doesn't do them justice.
Just chuckle at both leads oddly on screen chemistry clicking and clearly having a ball.

Good times good times

I don't think it should be discounted that even back during Body Heat she was starting to suffer from early onset arthritis. Which went undiagnosed for many years. Leaving the lovely lady having to self medicate with strong painkillers and plenty of vodka instead. For all we know as her discomfort increased she might have realised her acting career was going to have a far shorter shelf life than her talent and looks previously attested to. So I don't blame her. Let alone judge her for taking any sort of role which took a fancy while she physically was able to work. Be it for the money or whatever. I mean the majority of actors (Unless financially secure up the wazoo) do it for the money anyway.

Is only a great shame that once this (By that point) chronic arthritis was finally diagnosed the high grade steroid treatment needed to give her back some quality semblance of life led her to extremely bloat up as a side effect

I don't know if I've ever weighed in here before, but here goes...

Conan the Destroyer
Sucker Punch
Dungeons and Dragons
Watchmen
The recent Superman movies
The Toby McGuire Spider Man
The Neptune Factor
The Raven (Cusack is a good, likeable actor, but whoever wrote this ought be hanged at the crossroads. Poe deserves MUCH better.)
Mysterious Island of Beautiful Women (1979 TV movie), sounds like a Russ Meyer sexploitation flick, but, being on TV, is strictly bait-n-switch.
Snowbeast (1977 TV movie), basically Jaws...with fur!
Mars Needs Women (a criminal misuse of the gorgeous Yvonne Craig).
Raise the Titanic (obviously Richard Jordan, an otherwise fine actor, was desperate for the paycheck).
Joy Luck Club (ragingly misandrist)
The Life Aquatic
Hero (dreck)
Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon (also dreck)
The Matrix trilogy (very offensive geopolitics wrapped in a shiny, CGI candy shell).

One of the worse films I've seen last year and thank God for $1 RedBox video rental and also thank God I didn't pay $10 to see it in the theaters.

A Cure for Wellness (2016)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt4731136/

In recent years, there has been so many movies that are clocking in between 1 hour and 10 min to barely 1 hour and 25 min, rolling ending credits inclusive. Most of the time these "shortened" movies suffer from poor plot, lousy editing and they are just no good. We all have seen these films and as we walk out of the theater, we felt we were robbed of our movie ticket money and our precious time.

Here we have a psychotic horror thriller movie with a good premise: a young up and coming corporate executive is sent to a wellness spa to retrieve his CEO where he will soon discovers nothing at the spa is what it seems.

This movie started out well and it could had worked if it clocked in at just under 2 hours with better editing, a faster pacing, and a smoother story line but alas, it wasn't to be.

Gore Verbinski who started his directing career so well with movies like The Mexican, The Ring and Mousehunt and then lost his way rehashing the same Pirates of the Caribbeans movies over and over decided to over inflate this movie at 2 hours and 26 min.

Long, long before this movie was even 2/3 over, you had already stop caring about the character and you didn't care for the plot twist and the big reveal that just took too long to appear.

Not sure what Verbinski was aiming for with this film or what his motivation was but one thing is for sure, he took a total career mistep by bungling up what could had been one of the best psychological thriller in year. Maybe he is looking for redemption after getting his career stuck on a dead end one way "Pirates of the Caribbean" track? Who knows! But he didn't get redemption here.

Countless times during my viewing of this over long and tedious movie, I felt like the poor folks who were stuck listening to Ted Striker telling his war stories:

If they'd only put as much thought and effort into the execution of this film as they did with the theatrical one sheet posters:

Even a naked Mia Goth couldn't save this film!!

1.5/5

Notice how Gore hasn't done anything since this film in 2016?

https://www.imdb.com/name/nm0893659

He has a movie in pre-production but the last time its IMDB page was updated was over a year ago:

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt1830809

His career as a big movies director may be over.

A Cure for Wellness cost over $40 million to make not including marketing costs and it barely grossed $26 million total including domestic and worldwide.

Every "Highlander" movie - apart from the first one...

Absolutely the worst film I have ever seen (maybe "not seen" is more acurate)!

Rented it in VHS format back in the day, and probably watched only 15 minutes before ejecting it and throwing it back in the box.

It was so far-fetched, and over-the-top that it was truly painful to watch.

Too bad it was John Candy's last film.
