Years ago the Mrs asked If we could go and watch it so I said 'whatever' what a pile of sanctimonious SHIT. Ryan O'Neal and Ali MacGraw waffling at each other about nothing for far too long, she ends up being terminally ill in the film and I'm sat there in the pictures thinking "oh get on with it and konk out I wanna go home"
Bull shit and Top Gun wasn't much better either feel the need for speed my arse.
My Father had a profound influence on me, he was a lunatic.

Ahh man, getting Top Gun, Love Actually, Cliffhanger and a few others that I love on here ripped to pieces ;)
Baron von Munchies was truly terrible, saw that at the cinema a looong time ago. One I will add to the list that hasn't been mentioned yet is Room with a View. Absolute boring nonsense, pure pap that scooped Oscars for the luvvies. Anything Jaws that isn't 1 or 2 should be removed from the annals of history likewise anything with Ewoks, JaJa Binks or Jason Statham pretending to be a medieval farmer. Very poor fare.

Sat down to watch 'Lock, Stock and Two Smoking Barrels' a few years ago on the tele, got through about 40 minutes and knocked it off. Went back a few Months later and picked up where I'd left off and thought I'd ty again, watched it through to the end and discovered I was right the first time, duff/wooden/over acting actors, poorly scripted, big pile of nonsense really.
I'm not 100% sure but my Mrs had all 4 of her sisters over to watch a film one evening, I went in the front room and there was Hugh Grant on the screen pretending to act and looking like a gonk, I'm guessing that was Love Actually they were watching, I stood there for a couple of minutes and thought the world is truly f ucked, my time here is complete.
Oh God Lock Stock! I remember being quite excited about it when it came out. I quite like a good gangster movie.
I could not believe how aful it was or why on earth people were raving about it. As you say, the acting was abominable. Just a terrible film. Baffling.
I was also really excited by Slumdog Millionaire. Not a bad film, but a huge let down.
Bare bones.

Slumdog Millionaire
See my comment re Danny Boyle above.
Billed as the 'Feelgood film of the year'
Utterly depressing!
Unless one feels good about a kid having his eyes spooned out...
Sliding Doors. Quite a lot of films that try to interchange between different years or stories often come a cropper for me. Either they work or they're a bit shyte like this.
Twelve Monkeys was another one for me. I've seen it a few times now and each time I couldn't really work out what the fck was happening.

Wow. All the absolute dross and you've picked that masterpiece. It's funny, isn't it? I must dislike 99% of movies, that's one of the only good films i've ever seen.
Lest we not forget, most of the cast weren't actors, they were real gangsters.You can't expect the likes of underground bare knuckle champions Lenny McClean and Nosher Powell and market vendor Jason Statham, let alone Vinny Jones to actually act. Although in my opinion they did a far superior job to most Hollywood uncool dorks they use nowdays.
The likelihood of any British movie being crap, in comparison to the retarded Yank bilge they inflict upon us...ludicrous. Our films and TV are far superior. Surely, you can't be saying Lock Stck is worse than something like those new Star Wars films? Now they are genuinely unwatchable. Or bloody Spiderman, for the love of God. How anybody over the age of 12 watches them i can't begin to comprehend. And when i was 12 i'd have known they were sh!t even then. Almost every movie based around special effects is automatically sh!t really. Especially car chases.
Ps And where the hell are the cool actors like Steve McQueen nowadays? Most of the leading males are bloody nerds.

I was gonna say twelve monkeys. Awful awful film. But I'll raise you a Planet of the apes with Mark Wahlberg.

Never finished - Lost in Translation and I've tried twice Worst sports film- Wimbledon Worst "comedy" -The Terminal. Terminally boring
Others I've hated- Scarface( thought I'd love it, but nigh on three hours of watching people hoovering mountains of Charlie) Red Dawn -just awful. Bad Lieutenant -shite Lieutenant Bad Santa- see above
Used to take my nieces to the pictures . Before every film was a 20 minute Minion film. Nothing has ever grinded my gears as much as that weekly torment!

Quite a few of the films mentioned on here I've got a lot of enjoyment from. Lost in translation, Nightmare Before Christmas, Shallow Grave, They Live, Antichrist, The Cook The Thief etc, Zoolander, and Twelve Monkeys.
Interesting what floats someone's else boat sinks, another - oh and I didn't mind Dunkirk either.
One film I cant stand and see as a predictable piece of mawkish kak but many rave on about is the one set in the prison with the Morgan Freeman voice-over. Streuth.
Sleuth, however, with Caine and Olivier, that's excellent.

i just think Love Actually may be the most mysoginistic film in existence and yet women seem to love it. Baffling. All the 'older' women are treated like absolute shite, the Colin Firth story makes absolutely no sense and is just a richard curtis wnk fantasy, kris marshall's story is truly horrific, the martin freeman story is rubbish, i like hugh grant, but there's no chemistry there, the kid chasing the american girl is cringe and ludicrously contrived without an original moment in it (although my god she can sing - that was first take, by the way (audio, not the visual)), and the only other person of colour in the film is mainly off screen while keira knightley sighs at the white guy who didn't have the balls to tell her he fancied her - and he's supposed to be heartbreakingly romantic, and not an absolute arsehole. The Rown Atkinson scene is ok. The Gregor Fisher storyline is all right, although I read it as a gay storyline for a while until i was forced to watch it again and realised it actually isn't. I thought he was declaring his actual love to Fisher at the end, but he's not, just friendship. Horrendous. Not to mention the awful way the fantastic Laura Linney is treated - SHE'S AN OLD WOMAN, SHE DOESN'T DESERVE HAPPINESS YOU SEE! awful.
I didn't mind Love Actually it as alright but never understand why people got obsessed with it.
When it first came out I went to see it with my misses, a mate and his misses, I couldn't stand her but she thought I was like the Walking Dead fella who secretly fancied her but couldn't say, I didn't have the heart to tell her I just didn't like her so played along and told her to keep it to herself.

Anything Star Wars Lord of the rings - WTF is going on...I genuinely don't have a clue The Shape Of Water - Watched it after it won an Oscar - a lonely girl falls in love with some sort of "fish". So bad I watched it to the end.

Jimmy Neutron - Boy Genius - forced to go by my kids. I'm a bit strange when it comes to films as going to the pictures is in my Room 101. Sitting near strangers in the dark - weird.
Did I ever mention that I was in Minder?

I'm in the 'really , really tedious' camp for lst in Translation.
Took the kids to see the first pokemon movie. Ground my teeth to ineffectual stumps.
Thought 'pretty woman' was effing abysmal.
Loved Pretty Woman but that Pokemon movie was a horrendous waste of time.
Also took my boys to see it, wish I had had netflix back then(1998) didnt even have smart phones!! as I could have sat in the cinema and watched a different movie to that being shown on the big screen
Hated all the Beatles films plus the films they made of old World Cup Finals where they would have some awful commentary mixing a bit of match footage and showing the anxious faces of the spectators

That wedding scene with the musicians jumping out from behind the pews/seats is truly the most excruciatingly awful thing I have ever seen

Uncut Gems. I'm not an Adam Sandler fan but I was prepared to give the film a go as it came highly recommended on here. I think I got as far as 30 minutes before I gave up. Not solely because of Sandler, the film itself was just unwatchable.
Maybe for another thread that should probably be called vastly overatted films is the film Dunkirk. Not by any means a shyte film but hugely disappointing bearing in mind the hype. So far removed from what I had expected from a film portraying an event of such magnitude and carnage. In a way I blame Saving Private Ryan because that first 30 minutes is possibly the most intense opening scene you could see, all things considered.
Uncut gems is my favourite film of this year. And I also enjoyed Dunkirk.
I’ll let you know next time I like a film so you can swerve it!

Endless love - forced to go by an ex.

I generally find films quite long and tedious.
I don't mind 60 minute chunks of TV dramas.
But, to me, films just seem to go on forever and I just don't find most of them interesting enough to hold my attention.
I went to 1917 last year and to stave off the boredom I spent my time figuring out where they'd spliced one shot into the next to create the "amazing" non-stop shot. The fact that there was sod-all dialogue and zero character development seems to have passed the makers by.
Luckily, 20 mins before the end, someone called me so I had an excuse to get out and wait in the foyer whilst the film groun on to the end.
Re: Love Story; I along with many blokes were dragged to the cinema to see it with either their wives or girlfriends. I was in the latter group and remember the scene at the end where O’Neal climbs on to the bed to cuddle her; cue some wag to shout “ go on son, give her one” ,😂
