Once Upon A Crime Rotten Tomatoes
Enough of bad movies get rated on Rotten Tomatoes, but it's rare to see a picture score a apartment 0% without a single critic to defend something near the movie. If you didn't think it was possible, take a walk down the cinematic hall of shame and feast your eyes on some of the worst movies (according to Rotten Tomatoes) to date.
Each film on this list has managed to accomplish a flat 0% rating, implying a time suck of epic proportions should you lot choose to watch them. Apparently, these movies should only be viewed at your own risk. Consider yourself warned!
Look Who'due south Talking Now (1993)
Although the original Look Who's Talking picture show scored a mere 57% among critics, it was a viewer favorite, which prompted the creators to make not i, but ii sequels. The first ii featured John Travolta, Kirstie Aisle and a series of talking babies. Cute, right?
In the third flick, Look Who'south Talking Now, the filmmakers instead swapped the babies out with crude talking dogs who make constant sexual references. Very kid-friendly, right? It'due south incommunicable to understand how anyone making the film failed to consider this strategy would completely amerce the target audience and critics.
Although Hollywood may occasionally be able to stomach a bad movie, at that place'due south nothing it hates more than than a blatant rip-off. Such was the case when MAC and Me was released in 1988. The story features a young, wheelchair-jump boy who meets MAC (Mysterious Alien Animal), an alien who needs help finding his way home. Audio familiar?
Manifestly, the filmmakers thought that putting the poor kid in a wheelchair would keep anybody from realizing they had manifestly hijacked the plot of E.T. Information technology didn't work — Duh! — and critics weren't shy about letting everyone know what they thought virtually information technology.
Jaws: The Revenge (1987)
As Steven Spielberg told a moving-picture show festival audience in 1975, "Making a sequel to anything is simply a cheap carny trick." The fact that he understands what so many other filmmakers fail to grasp, even so, didn't keep three sequels to his hit picture Jaws from existence fabricated by other misguided industry professionals.
The tales of terrified beachgoers but kept coming until finally Jaws: The Revenge, the franchise's 4th movie, finally sank things one time and for all. The movie'southward nonsensical plot, bad special effects and sloppy execution were more than critics or moviegoers could handle with a straight face up.
Staying Alive (1983)
E'er noticed that there's something about dance movies that seems to inspire a million sequels? Before the days of the Step Up franchise, Staying Live led the style toward insipid dance movie franchises of the future. Unfortunately, this questionable sequel to the successful Saturday Night Fever came nowhere most the success of its predecessor.
John Travolta returned as Tony Manero in a plot set six years later on he won the legendary disco contest in the outset flick. The plot mostly serves as a filler for additional dancing that the filmmakers mistakenly counted on to behave the movie.
Bolero (1984)
Poor Bo Derek. One day, her career was off to a cracking start, and the next, her hubby, John Derek, had a not-so-brilliant idea called Bolero. Written and directed by John himself, the motion-picture show features Bo as a recently graduated woman in the 1920s who traipses all over the world in an endeavor to lose her virginity.
The whole affair turned out to be i of those movies that'south funny for all the incorrect reasons, and information technology was largely considered a huge mess by critics. On the other hand, it won six of its 10 Razzie laurels nominations. Maybe that counts for something — or not.
Dream a Little Dream (1989)
You know you have failed in a spectacular fashion when not even teen heartthrob Corey Feldman could relieve your '80s movie. Such was the case with Dream a Fiddling Dream, a bizarre story about an elderly couple who undertakes a mystical experiment.
As a result, they end up trapped in the bodies of two teenagers, whose lives don't plow out to exist what they had expected. Not surprisingly, the movie itself turned out to be epically incoherent. Roger Ebert dubbed it "an aggressively unwatchable movie," while other critics questioned whether the writers had whatsoever idea what they had created.
Problem Child (1990)
A couple adopts a young boy who turns out to be an absolute nightmare who is adamant to make their lives hell. While this might audio like a solid premise for a horror movie — maybe information technology would have worked that fashion — Problem Kid actually tried to nowadays itself as a slapstick comedy.
The problem was that none of the jokes were the to the lowest degree bit funny, and the plot itself came across as more mean-spirited than fun. The result was a mess of a moving picture with a pb graphic symbol that neither adults nor children could bring themselves to understand, let alone like.
Megaforce (1982)
Megaforce was supposed to chronicle the tale of an aristocracy group of international warriors, but it turned out to exist something most critics had to force themselves to lookout. As i reviewer put it, the film was "the kind of bad that makes you wish you were somewhere, anywhere else."
The movie barely grossed a fourth of its $20 1000000 budget, little of which appeared to accept been used to improve anything about the film. With bad dialogue, cheesy special furnishings and a ridiculous plot, Megaforce ended up beingness the most unintentionally funny action movie of all time.
Highlander 2: The Quickening (1991)
Few movies brought fans, critics and even its own crew together in common disgust quite like Highlander two. The original Highlander at least accomplished a cult following, but the sequel pretty much merely borrowed the title and admittedly none of the skillful parts of the storyline.
The filmmakers bizarrely tossed much of the original movie's plotline and twisted the premise to include aliens battling on an environmentally plagued Earth in 2024. Rumor has it that even manager Russell Mulcahy asked to replace his name with a fake one but was forbidden by his contract from bailing out.
American Anthem (1986)
If you have never heard of this '80'due south gymnastics story, then y'all're not alone. The story centers around a young male gymnast who works through diverse issues, meets a daughter and trains for the Olympics — you know, the usual athlete coming-of-age story. Who improve to play him than an actual Olympic gold medal gymnast, right?
Apparently not. While production didn't have to worry about training Mitch Gaylord to do the gymnastics, they probably should have focused a little more on training him to act. The sloppy story and overload of cliches came in second only to his less than gold-medal acting operation.
Constabulary Academy 4: Citizens on Patrol (1987)
Yous know how even the funniest joke loses all its hilarity if the same person keeps telling information technology over and over? That's sort of what happened with the Police Academy franchise. While the original was hilarious, nobody was laughing anymore by the terminate of the 6th sequel.
Amidst the most painful of the follow-ups was the fourth installment, in which Commandant Lassard decides to recruit civilians to work aslope the cops. The pic seems less concerned with a plot of any sort and plays out more like a string of gags tied together in the longest YouTube compilation ever.
Deadfall (1993)
Based on the cover alone, Deadfall looks like a movie that could attract enough of unsuspecting viewers. It has Nicolas Cage, James Coburn and even Charlie Sheen amidst its cast, non to mention a Coppola in the director's chair.
As it turns out, it'due south merely a lesson in never judging a book — or a picture show — by its cover. The film is basically an attempt at picture show noir gone terribly wrong. Although the filmmakers managed to become the look right, they forgot the part where you really need a potent plot to make the whole thing work.
A K Words (2012)
When your motion-picture show is shot 4 years before anyone dares to actually release it in theaters, you know you're in for a rough ride. A Chiliad Words made the mistake of taking the hilarious Eddie Murphy and pretty much forcing him to pull off an hour and a one-half of recorded silence.
Why? Considering if his character spoke too much, he would be doomed to become a magical tree in his backyard. By the time the picture was over, audiences everywhere were more than desperate for Potato to regain his speech than his character was.
Bucky Larson: Built-in to Exist a Star (2011)
Despite its name, this pic ironically did more to tank the career of lead role player Nick Swardson than assistance it. If you didn't see it, fearfulness not. Information technology's pretty much only one long joke that keeps struggling to tell itself for the most painful 96 minutes e'er.
You get a socially challenged loser child who moves to L.A. to follow in his porn-star parents' footsteps. Unless the previous sentence made yous laugh hysterically, then trust us when we clinch yous that you didn't miss annihilation. Seriously, it doesn't become whatsoever funnier from there.
Gotti (2018)
Although it was released a mere two years ago, Gotti has already gained the popular vote for the worst mob movie of all fourth dimension. John Travolta stars as infamous mobster John Gotti in this biopic, which attempts to cram the guy's entire life into 105 minutes.
Gotti was many things, and an interesting guy was certainly one of them. Unfortunately, the film fails to capture this fact and also manages to be ridiculously ho-hum in its attempt to entertain. One critic really said he would prefer to "wake upward next to a severed horse caput than e'er watch Gotti once again." Yikes!
Night Crimes (2018)
In the '90s, nigh of u.s. thought of Jim Carrey as the hysterically goofy star of films similar Ace Ventura: Pet Detective and Dumb and Dumber. And then, 1 day, he suddenly stunned the earth with his obvious dramatic talent in movies like The Truman Show and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.
So, when Dark Crimes came along, it seemed promising. The movie bandage Carey as a detective, and he did a pretty skilful job with what he was given. That said, the picture show was less the thriller it was intended to exist and mostly just likewise disturbing to actually watch.
The Ridiculous 6 (2015)
It seems like nosotros all fell and then in beloved with Adam Sandler during his early on career that we just tin can't bring ourselves to give up on him. Information technology was probably his early on success that made him rich enough to start bankrolling his own movies, and things have been going downhill e'er since.
Among the worst of his creations is The Ridiculous 6, a would-exist Western satire that is only painful to sentinel. Aside from its lame jokes, the flick is insanely racist and disrespectful toward Native Americans — to the degree that several Native American actors walked off the ready.
Max Steel (2016)
Not all superhero movies are created equal, as Max Steel will be the first to grudgingly admit. While many action films spawn toy lines, this ane did things backwards and attempted to make a picture show out of an old toy from the late '90s.
The picture tells the story of a boy named Max who meets a metallic conflicting being that can wrap effectually him like a knock-off Atomic number 26 Man suit. The residue of the movie follows conform with one superhero cliche later on some other, none of which are executed half every bit well as they are in the films they shamelessly mimic.
Simon Sez (1999)
Think when Dennis Rodman was however effectually? Well, of grade, there was someone out there who simply had to ride the coattails of his 15 minutes of fame by dropping him into an action flick. Hence, Simon Sez, the sequel to Double Have, was born.
While Rodman at to the lowest degree had Jean-Claude Van Damme to dorsum him up in the starting time flick, he has to resort to teaming up with a pair of random computer hacking monks in the sequel. Fix to spend the whole movie wishing he would just give it up and do a couple of dunks instead.
Return to the Blue Lagoon (1991)
Although The Blue Lagoon didn't even garner a 10% fresh rating from critics in 1980, that didn't stop someone out at that place from thinking a sequel would however be a great idea. 1991 saw the ill-blighted release of Return to the Blue Lagoon, which fared even worse than the original.
The moving-picture show plopped and then-teenagers Milla Jovovich and Brian Krause onto a desert island, threw in a little romance and a lot of flesh, and hoped for the all-time. Unfortunately, the film tanked and was fifty-fifty accounted by 1 critic to be "for pervs and frustrated holidaymakers just." Ouch.
The Garbage Pail Kids Motion picture (1987)
Dorsum in the '80s, at that place was a card collecting trend featuring the Garbage Pail Kids. With characters meant to be knock-offs of Cabbage Patch Kids, the cards featured kids that were super gross in ways that just young boys notice fascinating.
To the horror of parents everywhere, someone decided to turn the trend into a truly terrifying alive-activeness flick. While the cartoonish creatures may have looked harmless plenty on the cards, their puppet counterparts were the stuff that nightmares — and years of intense therapy — were made of.
Top Dog (1994)
While Chuck Norris may have spawned a serial of hysterical memos detailing his ballsy levels of greatness, Top Canis familiaris is his Achilles Heel that refuses to die. How could an action-comedy starring non only Norris but besides an ambrosial dog maybe go incorrect?
Well, the first mistake was inserting our heroes into a "family unit-friendly" film laden with Neo-Nazis terrorists and White Supremacists. (What?) The second was having the poor gustatory modality to release it ii weeks after the Oklahoma City bombings. All this added up to an epic neglect that was most booed out of the box office.
Jury Duty (1995)
This Pauly Shore flop was enough to get out most film fans preferring actual jury duty to sticking effectually until the final credits rolled on this movie. The tale revolves around an bromidic slacker who gets the brilliant idea to sign upwards for jury duty then he can take reward of the costless room and lath. (Exactly where is this jury duty?)
The residual of the film generally focuses on him coming up with the most annoying ways possible to keep the case going, simply so he doesn't lose his temporary digs. By the end, you're sure to exist just as frustrated as his young man jurors.
Ed (1996)
You lot could almost hear the collective shatter of the hearts of Friends fans around the globe when this bad boy flop came out. The sports one-act featured Matt LeBlanc — of Joey Tribbiani fame — and a lovable, baseball-playing chimpanzee named Ed. What could go incorrect?
And so much. Although the premise could accept been a solid kid characteristic in the correct easily, the filmmakers fell dorsum on a string of potty jokes and very trivial else to make the movie funny. The whole affair just seemed similar such a waste material for LeBlanc's comedy skills, and it didn't do the chimp any favors either.
3 Strikes (2000)
Starring Brian Hooks and written by the aforementioned guy who penned the hysterical Friday, this comedy gem seemed destined to be a winner. Wrong! By the time it was all said and washed, critics were ready to lock this one up and throw away the central.
The plot centers around a two-strike felon who is trying his best to stay out of problem, a task that turns out to be surprisingly complicated. The movie relies mostly on super lowbrow humor, which might take been excusable if it had actually managed to be funny.
Redline (2007)
Yous know those bargain bin DVDs that look like dollar store versions of popular movies? Redline is pretty much their king. Imagine The Fast and the Furious but without the plotline and with women depicted equally nothing more than than arm candy. That pretty much sums upwards the flick.
Rather than attempt to tell a story of any sort, the film is a blatant vanity project meant to bear witness off a bunch of flashy cars, complete with the agenda daughter side pieces. Save your time and flip through a car agenda at a truck stop instead.
The Nutcracker in 3D (2010)
Seriously, how do you even mess up The Nutcracker? Sadly, this misguided children'southward pic pulled information technology off, much to the dismay of horrified motion picture critics everywhere. The Hollywood Reporter called it "an apparent Scrooge-like attempt by Russian filmmaker Andrei Konchalovsky to forever ruin children'due south associations with the archetype Yuletide ballet."
Despite the film's solid bandage, which included Elle Fanning and Nathan Lane, information technology veered so far away from the much-loved traditional tale that it became something else entirely. You had one task, Nutcracker. Step abroad from the 3D glasses and stick to the beloved story.
National Lampoon's Aureate Diggers (2003)
This sincerely misguided attempt at a comedy stars Volition Friedle, who played the lovably bumbling Eric Matthews on Boy Meets Earth, and Chris Owen every bit the two least funny guys in whatever comedy always. The hijinks begin when the boys decide to marry two older women, in hopes that they volition soon die and leave them a large inheritance.
Earlier long, everyone is trying to murder anybody else, and the mystery of why this hateful-spirited flick was ever considered a comedy just keeps getting deeper. If you desire a real laugh, read the motion-picture show's Rotten Tomatoes reviews instead.
Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever (2002)
Expect no further than this 2002 gem for proof that star power alone can't relieve a bad motion picture. Starring Lucy Liu and Antonio Banderas, the movie is well-nigh ii authorities agents who are fighting over who can get their hands on some new diabolical weapon first.
An understandable plot, nonetheless, seems to be the concluding thing on the filmmakers' minds. The unabridged movie is more like one large cord of explosions, bullets and plotlines gone rogue (and incorrect). With more than 100 bad reviews to its proper name, if it'southward not the worst movie of all time, it'south definitely pretty shut.
Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas (2017)
As one critic summed this one up, "Saving Christmas is basically 80 minutes of Cameron lambasting Christians for non being his equal when it comes to intolerance and close-mindedness." The flick left both believers and nonbelievers alike wondering what had but happened to the incredibly confusing last 80 minutes of their lives.
The bizarre undertaking looks more similar something Cameron filmed on his telephone after a few likewise many egg nogs and is more or less him preaching a sermon he didn't bother to research. The whole affair comes across more than like a vanity piece than an inspirational message.
Folks! (1992)
Tom Selleck, the actor who resembles a real-life Ken doll, made a major mistake when he took the pb role in the incredibly problematic Folks. In the picture show, Selleck's Jon Aldrich tries to manage his piece of work and personal life while his parents, specially his male parent who lives with dementia, continued to make his life more and more problematic.
Folks! was heavily panned for its negative portrayal of anyone over the historic period of 50, but specially for the depression-brow sense of humor at the expense of someone living with dementia. Yous couldn't observe any folks in the athenaeum who had a expert matter to say nigh this poorly-written movie.
A Low Down Dirty Shame (1994)
A picture with the likes of Keenen Ivory Wayans and Jada Pinkett Smith sounds similar it would be a recipe for a good movie, right? Wrong. This action/comedy dud written, directed past and starring Wayans was panned for its terrible plot lines and story structure.
Legendary flick critic had some particularly cut words for the LAPD-focused moving-picture show: "Hither is a movie about guns. Accept away the guns, and the motion-picture show would exist most nothing much. The plot, the dialogue and all just one of the characters are so shallow that, without murder for a punch line, they'd deflate." What a shame.
Precious Cargo (2016)
Sigh. Poor Bruce Willis. This motion picture was so bad it makes other bad movies look good. Willis played the part of Eddie Filosa, who convinces a law-breaking boss and his gang to steal $xxx million in diamonds from some other crime gang in exchange for a woman.
Another film whose plot points and story structure are just filled with guns and high-speed chases. The cheap dialog and intentionally funny moments turned into a slice of painful, gut-wrenching cinema. Information technology should honestly be retitled "Total Garbage".
Transylmania (2009)
A group of sexy college co-eds party abroad in a vampire-filled Romania. What could possibly get wrong? When the pb grapheme Rusty arranges the Eurotrip so he could meet his Internet girlfriend Draguta, you realize how much really volition go wrong in this far-from-campy movie.
The movie is filled with a bunch of tired gags, monsters that aren't scary and also many characters to develop an affinity towards any of them. For a movie from the National Lampoon franchise, this screwball comedy actually fails to deliver whatsoever "mania" exterior of pure nausea.
London Fields (2018)
The clear-sighted Nicola Six, played by Bister Heard, learns that she will die at the hands of a man in her life. Naturally, she begins to date 3 men to observe which i will be her killer. That makes total sense, right? Aught disruptive to contemplate in that location.
The film grossed $168,575 on its opening weekend, with a per-screen average of $261. The Contained's critic Kaleem Aftab claimed, "Near scenes lack pace, are performed badly and are accompanied past a running commentary of action we can come across for ourselves."
