The Hobbit: The Desolation of Smaug (2013)
Worst 161 minutes of my life

Where do we begin? Improbable plot detours? Yup, got them.
Crap romantic subplots that Tolkien never dreamed? Spoiler: an elf and a dwarf making googly eyes at one another? Yup, that's there.
Video game-ready cgi? Looking like it was made for TV? (I should note that it was the 3d version I just suffered.) And why should a tiny book like this have been stretched into 3 full-length films? The cynical among us would say greed.
I really liked the LOTR. And I don't remember the first Hobbit being this crappy.
Worst part is, I'm dumb enough to go back for the third installment just for the sake of complete-ism. Sigh.
