Top 30 Worst Movies of the Century (So Far)

Gary is that you yes it is look how handsome you are welcome to watch Mojo and today we're counting down our pcks for the most dismal films of the 21st century what a story Mark yeah you can say that again number 30 Winnie the Pooh Blood and Honey remember when we were young po why why are you doing this a horror reimagining of beloved childhood characters is bound to be controversial but it turns out even more horrifying than the Gory kills in this movie was the screenplay in January 2022 the first Winnie the Pooh book went into the public domain allowing writer director Reese frake Waterfield to plan his own nightmare version of AA mil's classic story a slasher that sees Pooh and Friends kidnap Christopher Robin and go on a murderous Rampage against a group of University students the movie was panned for its weak dialogue story and acting however it did make over $5 million on a budget of just $100,000 and so there's a sequel in the works why would you leave me alone he just keeps following me everywhere I go number 29 After Earth I want to work with Mom me too this 2013 post-apocalyptic action movie starring Will Smith and his son Jaden was directed by ight Shyamalan a director famous for his surprise twist endings unfortunately this entry doesn't have a surprise twist where we tell you how it was actually a good film with flat performances and a cliched preachy predictable story after Earth was disliked by both critics and audiences Will Smith had pitched the movie to the studio as just the beginning of a series of films television shows theme park rides and much more needless to say that all went away after the film was released that sucked that is correct number 28 Street Fighter the Legend of Chun Ley should we kill you before or after we cut you while the video game franchise is still going strong we've still never gotten a quality liveaction Street Fighter movie at least the 1994 film with jeanclaude vanam made money at the box office however not only did 2009's Street Fighter the Legend of Chun Lee lose the studio money it was even worse than the 1994 film something many probably never thought possible besides the terrible writing and cardboard acting the legend of Chun Lee was also criticized for less than Stellar fight scenes and if you can't at least get awesome fight scenes in a Street Fighter movie then what's the point how do you know who I am we've been watching you for some time I know who took your father he's alive number 27 Holmes and Watson WS stop ping in we can disable the queen after Talladega Knights and Step Brothers we were all ready for another will Ferell and John C Riley collaboration to be a laugh Riot the only mystery in Holmes and Watson is how so many funny people produced such a clueless not to mention Elementary comedy the movie basically follows the same formula as every other will feral star vehicle an egotistical buffoon needs to learn the value of humility and friendship ah the most obvious conclusion this time however the formula is devoid of anything resembling charm humor or effort in 2018 did the filmmaker seriously think that people would laugh at jokes about fake mustaches the Titanic and women being doctors what does doctor mean in America it means doctor the fact that Sony couldn't even Pawn this inevitable bomb off on Netflix says everything number 26 The Haunting of Sharon Tate oh well well pregnant little Starlet he's got some fighting her the premise sounds just awful but somehow it was made into a film writer director Daniel fen's horror movie stars Hillary Duff as Sharon Tate who's having premonitions of her murder a murder that of course really did happen in the summer of 1969 there are a few worthwhile movies about Charles Manson and the Manson family murders and you're definitely better off watching them instead the exploitative screenplay and miscasting of Hillary Duff were poorly received by critics and audiences alike it is a cheap schlock horror take on tragic real events I guess you could say I live in a fairy tale world looking at everything through rosec colored glasses I probably always will number 25 glitter there's been no shortage of quality musical dramas in the 21st century but this is not one of them Mariah Carey has tried to blame the film's failure on the fact it was released on 911 even though it was actually released on the much less traumatic 921 you got anything we can hear right now sure why not we're working on it but the fact that critics and fans alike loathed the film seems like a far more likely explanation for one car's performance as Billy Frank was so harshly criticized she ended up winning the Razzy in 2002 for worst actress oh your whole thing the Superstar always comes first don't blame me for your failure after just 27 days in theaters it closed having earned back only around a quarter of its $22 million budget All That Glitters clearly ain't box office gold number 24 Pinocchio could you find it in her heart to forgive me then I asked myself is it possible that her heart is big enough I thought no no but then yes of course it is Italian actor writer and director Roberto benini became a household name with the release of his multi-award-winning film life is beautiful in 1997 but life wasn't so beautiful 5 years later when his film Pinocchio made its way to theaters what made life is beautiful so amazing was bini's ability to bring true moments of Beauty in the midst of Unthinkable monstrosity but in Pinocchio thatav viiv is missing instead it feels like banini is just going through the motions there's also the questionable edit that Miramax did to the film for the English dubbed version released in the US while the Italian release received mixed reviews the US version rocks 0% on Rotten Tomatoes these are donkey ears number 23 saving Christmas just maybe someone like Santa Claus is actually on the team best known for his role as Mike sver on Growing Pains Kirk Cameron became a born- again Christian at 17 and has spent much of the last decades producing TV and movies that speak to his faith one such work was the 2014 holiday film saving Christmas which begins with Cameron delivering a diet tribe to the audience that Christmas is under attack the movie SL sermon that follows consists of Cameron's arguments to a character playing his brother-in-law named Christian for the Christian Roots of Christmas the only people who are angrier than Cameron are those that had to watch this poorly written and painfully acted slog as one YouTube commenter put it quote finally something that both atheists and Christians can dislike s a n ta a rearrange letters Satan Santa Satan same letters number 22 the hottie and the naughty June's a Handler at the zoo that's great the only downside is that I'm constantly covered in hair not that I don't already have enough to begin with shockingly Paris elon's acting isn't even the worst thing about this movie she plays the titular hottie cristel the love interest of Joel David Moore's Nate when Nate asks her out she agrees but only if he finds a date for her best friend the naughty what follows are cruel jokes at the naughty's expense a dramatic makeover and true love while the film may see itself as celebrating inner Beauty it definitely does not the script the dialogue and the depth of characters are as surface level as the beauty that really matters in this movie I it's a little bit of a shock to the system you have the whole new look number 21 Catwoman here's a movie executive board meeting we can't imagine happening hey guys the campiness of Batman and Robin was such a success let's create the same cheesy atmosphere for this Batman spin-off and not use Batman at all extra points to Hal Berry for agreeing to do this fresh off her Oscar win though cats come when they feel like it not when they're told it won razis for worst picture screenplay actress and director and everybody even halberry agreed that this was a piece of garbage if you don't have an identity why keep it a secret because you killed me not only did it have barely anything to do with the DC Comics characters it also lacked any strong female characters action sequence or even a compelling plot jeez where is Michelle Fifer when we need her get over guess what it's overtime number 20 Fantastic 4 the next entry on our list is a case of tripping right out of the gate director Josh Tran was a relative newcomer to the scene when he was hired to helm 2015's big budget reboot of Marvel's Fantastic 4 franchise Victor come on we can't leave him wait we got to go now come on Tran had only one prior directorial Credit in film to his name with 2012's Chronicle yet the writing was on the proverbial wall when Tran posted a negative tweet about his experience on the film prior to its release he's been active in covert operations with a 100% success rate this was in addition to the already poor reception Fant for stick was receiving from critics who wrote off the film as a quote woefully misguided attempt to translate a classic comic series without the humor Joy or colorful Thrills that made it great ouch got to say it's fantastic number 19 Bucky Larson born to be a star oh you hit me in the eye we guess you could say that Nick swartson was the 2010's equivalent to Rob Schneider I.E the guy who frequently pops up in Adam Sandler movies whereas Schneider had a few star Vehicles back in the day though swartzon was given one shot to prove he could carry a movie that's my folks on the big screen if Bucky LaRon proves anything it's that schwartzen was not born to be a star cing on a bucktoothed mouth breather who learns his parents were adult film stars Bucky Larson sets out in Pursuit Of Fame it's basically a poorer version of Orgasmo which didn't exactly set the bar very high throw in paully Shore and you've got a movie that clearly is not even trying Hey ma'am I got your paper you can leave the paper on the counter number 18 the adventures of Pluto Nash you married twins huh no they're not twins I I met the perfect woman and then I had a clones which one's which who cares this sci-fi comedy was in development for almost two decades we're not sure why they bothered after Eddie Murphy signed on several writers took cracks at the story but Murphy rejected them all asking for a regular action movie script like they'd write for Sylvester Stallone promising that he' bring the comedy you're you're genius you're gen now look what you did she that's how she saw it she saw it upside down well unfortunately the Adventures of Pluto Nash just isn't funny and the action isn't very interesting either even director Ron Underwood has admitted that it isn't good and said of Murphy quote he wasn't feeling that funny I don't think yeah we noticed how did they find us obviously you did something stupid number 17 Norm of the north I didn't know what to do no other bear seem to be able to speak human if anyone thought that making a good animated movie is as easy as throwing together a a bunch of cute talking animals Norm of the north is here to prove you wrong talking animals alone do not a good movie make because what they're saying is also very important and what they say in this one are mostly a lot of tired jokes interspersed throughout a film that obviously takes um inspiration from the likes of Happy Feet Madagascar and Ice Age but without any of the charm or heart what's he doing he wants you to stomp on him he wants you to prove how tough he is could he sign a relas first number 16 cats the naming of cats is a difficult matter we all know that having an All-Star cast does not always translate into a successful picture but that was just the tip of the iceberg when it came to cats the Tom Hooper directed fantasy musical was absolutely annihilated upon release with critics tearing apart CGI glitches that were so obvious Universal Pictures had to send out visual updates to theaters after the movie was already released meanwhile audiences had to sit through a nightmareish and disjointed story that had silver screen icons like Ian McKellen and Judy Dench clawing away needlessly at their storyed careers and reputations plus with those post-release CGI fixes the losses on cats are expected to reach between 70 and $100 million making it a total flop on all accounts that's what I say to you okay number 15 Dragon Ball Evolution I will defeat ozaru and I'm here to destroy you this movie in liveaction adaptation infamy Dragon Ball has been a beloved franchise since the release of the Manga and Anime in the mid 1980s but this 2009 liveaction adaptation wasn't for the fans showing very little faith to the source material then there was the casting which invited accusations of whitewashing add in a weak script and awful acting and you've got Dragon Ball Evolution critics and fans are not always on the same page but in this case they were lock step in their agreement it doesn't feel right I must be missing something needless to say the rest of the movies in the planned Dragon Ball series were cancelled we are just stuck down here I'd be uh so grateful if you could just help me and my friends out number 14 alone in the dark what the hell's going on here especially known for his video game adaptations L has built a reputation for directing some of the worst movies of all time with most of his Productions becoming critical and box office disasters he also does doesn't care what you think although House of the Dead deserves a special mention it's his other video game adaptation that's our choice in alone in the dark Christian Slater uses his special powers to chase after these demonic creatures that used to be woried by an extinct civilization and it is epically bad if they disrupt electricity how come my flashlight still worked number 13 Gotti this life ends one of two ways dead or in jail I did both congratulations dant Travolta you've made your silliest movie since Battlefield Earth are you not aware that I graduated top of my class the script for this crime biopic reads like it was written by an AI bot that gathered all of its data from Italian-American stereotypes and gangster cliches you got us into this mess please Gotti hits all the familiar mob movie beats but it's completely deprived of any Humanity when all said and done what do we really learn about John Gotti by watching this movie well he was a mob boss he had a family he swore a lot that's about it there's no real insight into what made Gotti such a fascinating figure the only thing more confused than the movie itself is the soundtrack which includes the musical stylings of Pitbull and the theme from Shaft I mean that ain't right that ain't right number 12 the Emoji Movie today is my first day on the phone oh boy I'm going to be so me what are you going to do in 1914 Windsor McKay premiered his anime animated short Gertie the dinosaur launching a groundbreaking art form into the mainstream 103 years later this art form was used to turn Sir Patrick Stewart into a talking piece of poop that's because I believe in you should we wash our hands McKay would be so proud the Emoji Movie doesn't even feel like a real animated feature but rather a satire of one come to think of it if smarter writers were involved Maybe this could have been a clever satire about product placement and Hollywood's creative bankruptcy this feels very odd and it smells since this is a movie about a society that inhabits a device however it's nothing more than a commercial really as Rotten Tomatoes will tell you the whole movie can be summed up with a general prohibition sign emoji aim higher Steven number 11 Freddy Got Fingered what in the name of sweet breakfast meats are you doing even when he was making the Tom Green Show for local Canadian television then the Comedy Network and eventually MTV we understood that the comedian is an acquired taste and while many of us enjoyed these subversive comedy on a show his 2001 film Freddy Got Fingered is a flavor many of us did not ever acquire sausages hanging from ceilings and newborn swung around by their umbilical cord just didn't scream funny to a lot of us while the movie has gained a cult following in the intervening decades it still holds a 10% critic score and a 56 audience rating on Rotten Tomatoes my dad was right all along it is stupid number 10 jeie thanks to benifer 1.0 this monstrosity received way more attention than it deserved however that didn't stop the movie from being among Hollywood's most expensive bombs ever in every relationship there's a bull and a cow it just so happens that in this relationship right here with me and you I'm the bull you're the cow in jie Ben Affleck is a mobster who needs to kidnap a prosecutor's brother who has mental disabilities in order to help a Crime Boss played by alucino avoid prison you all guessed right this is clearly a romantic comedy what about me it's not your typ your penis this movie is offensive to people with mental disabilities to lesbians and to any audience members with eyes or ears after winning six razis it later won a seventh for worst comedy of the razzy's first 25 years welld deserved number n Son of the Mask don't you just love Halloween following the mega success of the mask the studio found a sequel irresistible and wanted to bring back Jim Carrey the problem was that Carrie didn't want to do it and that's why instead of the Mask 2 we got Son of the Mask instead and the results were anything but broken the script feels like a premise desperately trying to find a story and the CG I can't hide just how unfunny it all is and no disrespect to Jamie Kennedy but he's no Jim Carrey to paraphrase the original mask somebody should have stopped him from agreeing to be in this movie in fact somebody should have stopped everyone from making it who's a turkey number eight The Last Airbender is it okay if you tell me your name the monks named me on the last air bender lived up to its title but not in the way director ight Shyamalan intended Shyamalan built up this film as if it was going to kick off Hollywood's next epic Trilogy between its rushed plot wooden acting overproduced special effects unnatural dialogue and accusations of whitewashing though a sequel naturally never saw the light of day the good news is that there's already an epic Trilogy the three season long animated series that inspired the Cinematic travesty that being said the fact that the Last Airbender was derived from such a brilliant show is what truly gets under people's skin a terrible movie is one thing a terrible movie based on promising Source material is just shameful you're angry you must let this go number seven movie 43 hello Mrs Miller I'm the pretty girl she is helmed by Peter fle who'd ironically go on to direct a Best Picture Winner only 5 years ler later movie 43 was supposed to be Kentucky Fried Movie meets funnier die instead we got the Citizen Cane of awful as Richard rooper Put It comprised of several sketches this Anthology comedy enlisted a cornucopia of gifted actors and filmmakers the selling point was a skit where Kate Winslet goes on a date with Hugh Jackman who's given a unique neck abnormality Lois yes Lois Lane no I I know i' I've it's it's me Robin from there more and more stars signed up for a comedy that ultimately produced few laughs but plenty of groans and cringes we dare you to find a movie released that same decade that flushed more Talent down the toilet certain percentage of our younger demographic are sticking there you know what in the vent no I don't know what number six birdemic shock and Terror so uh what do you do um I'm a fashion model and a beautiful one too hey because of climate change birds have mutated into creatures Who attack humans spit acid and explode upon hitting the ground lovers rod and Natalie are caught in the middle of this deadly phenomenon and must escape with their lives and those they can save along the way trust us we feel even dumber saying all that than you do listening to it but that is 2010's birdemic shock and Terror in a nutshell the film was made for just $10,000 and ooh Does it show the visual effects are laughable and while money can be blamed for the effects it isn't an excuse for such an awful script painful dialogue and some of the worst acting you'll ever see sir don't you know that these birds are attacking people these birds yes no way they're dead from the uh bird flu virus number five super babies Baby Geniuses 2 what are you guys blabbering about oh they're not babbling they're talking at the heart of this movie are babies who can talk to each other using baby talk and a super baby who drinks some kind of green drink to become a powerful fighter there's also John Voit with a German accent as the bad guy a whole lot of terrible puns and boring action scenes just cuz it's all done with cute kids does not make it better and if you're wondering why super babies Baby Geniuses 2 made our list but the original Baby Geniuses didn't it's only because the latter was released in 1999 last century if we find the key to the human mind every child will be be educated in the Kinder method every great mind will be ours to mold number four food fight listen up fat cat burler I'm giving you one last chance to hand them over before I cash in your coupons for you some movies should stay in development hell this computer animated Adventure comedy about food mascots was originally set to be released in 2003 but delayed until 2012 when the world finally got to see what they'd been working on all that time and the world wasn't impressed one and down just do the right thing and you can't go wrong yeah man but I don't want to lose you too we're not sure what they were doing that whole time but based on the poor script and awful animation it can't have been writing or animating it failed on every level as an adventure it wasn't fun and as a comedy it wasn't funny then there was the annoyingly obvious product placement we'd rather have someone throw actual food at us than ever have to watch this thing again you want some oh yeah h a it warms my heart the way you love my raisins tough guy number three Jack and Jill how we doing where were you I've been waiting forever for you we're glad that Adam Sandler closed out the decade with his acclaimed performance in uncut gems because he kicked off the decade with a Razzy winning performance in Jack and Jill actually he gave two Razzy winning performances playing adman Jack and his unbelievably obnoxious twin sister Jill oh P Wally Zoom that means I want to choke on my own vomit the film even managed to win a Razzi in every category an unprecedented um achievement even in a decade that brought us pixels and grown-ups too Jack and Jill is Sandler's crowning achievement of lazy anti-humor alucino says it best in the final scene where he orders Jack to burn this in the story's context he's talking about a commercial but it just as easily could be applied to the movie we just endured everyone wants my dunk cacino can't get a enough of my dunino number two Battlefield Earth many of our entries can be seen as career Killers but Battlefield Earth brought John Travolta to an all-time low oh thank you sir I I don't know if I could have kept my sanity to be her another five Cycles although most actors are forced to take these steps down for a paycheck Travolta spent years bringing this movie to the world claiming its source material was better than Star Wars please forgive my pretention as I try to educate you in cyclo the noble language of our superiors Scientology founder elron hubard wrote the book in an attempt to bring the religion to younger audiences and that book serves as the basis of the Sci-Fi Action flick needless to say the world wasn't interested when the most horrible acting you've ever seen is topped by camera work that will give you a cramp in the neck it's not surprising you have a recipe for unintentional hilarity
