- DirectorGus Van SantStarsVince VaughnAnne HecheJulianne MooreIn Gus Van Sant's remake of Alfred Hitchcock's classic, young female bank employee Marion Crane steals money from her boss in Phoenix, flees town, and arrives at Fairvale, California's rundown Bates Motel, which has secrets of its own.Alfred Hitchcock is spinning in his grave.
- DirectorTim BurtonStarsMark WahlbergHelena Bonham CarterTim RothIn 2029, an Air Force astronaut crash-lands on a mysterious planet where evolved, talking apes dominate a race of primitive humans.Almost worse than Psycho, which says a lot. A really rare misstep for Tim Burton who is still one of my favourites. Terrible twist at the end. And Wahlberg sucks in this.
- DirectorTim StoryStarsQueen LatifahJimmy FallonGisele BündchenA mouthy and feisty taxicab driver has hot tips for a green and inept cop set on solving a string of New York City bank robberies committed by a quartet of female Brazilian bank robbers.DRIVE YOUR TAXI TO HELL AND DIE THERE JUST DIE THERE!!!!
- DirectorJohn SchultzStarsCedric The EntertainerMike EppsGabrielle UnionWorking class New York bus driver Ralph Kramden is always coming up with get-rich-quick schemes for him and his best friend, Ed Norton, who's always around to help him get in (and out of) trouble.Man oh man was this movie awful! Jackie Gleason is probably spinning AND screaming in his grave.
Seriously this movie is a real travesty.
The filmmakers and studio responsible should have been brought up on charges because this movie is CRIMINAL. - DirectorJay ChandrasekharStarsSeann William ScottJohnny KnoxvilleJessica SimpsonCousins Bo, Luke, and Daisy Duke, and their uncle Jesse, egg on the authorities of Hazzard County, Boss Hogg and Sheriff Coltrane.
- DirectorHarald ZwartStarsJackie ChanJaden SmithTaraji P. HensonWork causes a single mother to move to China with her young son; in his new home, the boy embraces kung fu, taught to him by a master.Man oh man can this kid NOT act!
- DirectorLen WisemanStarsColin FarrellBokeem WoodbineBryan CranstonA factory worker, Douglas Quaid, begins to suspect that he is a spy after visiting Rekall - a company that provides its clients with implanted fake memories of a life they would like to have led - goes wrong and he finds himself on the run.Colin makes Arnie look like a great actor. That says a lot. None of the fun or charm of the original space epic!
- DirectorJason WinerStarsRussell BrandHelen MirrenJennifer GarnerA drunken playboy stands to lose a wealthy inheritance when he falls for a woman his family doesn't like.Truly awful.
- DirectorKevin TancharoenStarsKelsey GrammerBebe NeuwirthMegan MullallyAn updated version of the musical Fame (1980), which centered on the students of the New York Academy of Performing Arts. The name of the school in 1980 was Fiorello Laguardia High School.No. Just no.
- DirectorRoland EmmerichStarsMatthew BroderickJean RenoMaria PitilloFrench nuclear tests irradiate an iguana into a giant monster that heads off to New York City. The American military must chase the monster across the city to stop it before it reproduces.Fun for all the wrong reasons. SO BAD! SO STUPID!
- DirectorKevin Rodney SullivanStarsAshton KutcherBernie MacZoe SaldanaA young woman, Theresa, brings her boyfriend, Simon, home to meet her parents and surprise them with the news of their engagement. Another surprise: Simon is white."We're gonna remake 'Guess Who's Coming to Dinner' with Ashton Kutcher!" ... Are you *beep* serious?!
- DirectorNeil LaButeStarsNicolas CageEllen BurstynLeelee SobieskiA sheriff investigating the disappearance of a young girl from a small island discovers there's a larger mystery to solve among the island's secretive, neo-pagan community.LAUGHABLY AWFUL!
- DirectorBarry SonnenfeldStarsWill SmithKevin KlineKenneth BranaghThe two best special agents in the Wild West must save President Grant from the clutches of a diabolical, wheelchair-bound, steampunk-savvy, Confederate scientist bent on revenge for losing the Civil War.It's worse than a stinker. It's a super stinker.
- DirectorJohn McTiernanStarsChris KleinJean RenoLL Cool JThe big thing in 2005 is a violent sport which can have some pretty serious consequences... like dying.It says a lot that as bad as Rollerball is, it's still not even in the top ten!
- DirectorJeremiah S. ChechikStarsRalph FiennesUma ThurmanSean ConneryTwo British Agents team up to stop Sir August de Wynter from destroying the world with a weather-changing machine.STUPID!
- DirectorFrancis LawrenceStarsWill SmithAlice BragaCharlie TahanYears after a plague kills most of humanity and transforms the rest into monsters, the sole survivor in New York City struggles valiantly to find a cure.Attrocious. Bad CGI. Bad story (what the heck did they ruin the twist AND the ending for?!). Bad direction. Bad everything. The empty NYC streets look cool, and some of the action sequences, and I like the IDEA behind the monsters and the fact they are actually quite intelligent. But it all adds up to a pretty bad film.
- DirectorBill FishmanStarsDavid JohansenJohn C. McGinleyFran DrescherBrash NYC policeman Officer Gunther Toody is partnered with stiff, by-the-book Officer Francis Muldoon to protect an important mafia witness prior to testifying against orgainzed crime in Brooklyn, all the while dealing with their personal lives, overbearing spouses, common criminals, arms dealers, and their officious boss Captain Anderson.There aren't... even... words...

- DirectorBryan SingerStarsBrandon RouthKevin SpaceyKate BosworthSuperman returns to Earth after spending five years in space examining his homeworld Krypton. But he finds things have changed while he was gone, and he must once again prove himself important to the world.I loved the Superman movies growing up, even the "bad ones"... so this movie was a real slap in the face to me. SO STUPID!!! SUCH A BAD REPLACEMENT FOR CHRISTOPHER REEVE! Hopefully the Henry Cavill version will be better... this one was a real dud.
- DirectorCraig BrewerStarsKenny WormaldJulianne HoughDennis QuaidCity teenager Ren MacCormack moves to a small town where rock music and dancing have been banned, and his rebellious spirit shakes up the populace.Put on your Sunday shoes and walk out of the theatre.
- DirectorF. Gary GrayStarsDonald SutherlandMark WahlbergEdward NortonAfter being betrayed and left for dead in Italy, Charlie Croker and his team plan an elaborate gold heist against their former ally.Bad heist remake.
- DirectorShawn LevyStarsSteve MartinKevin KlineJean RenoBumbling Inspector Clouseau must solve the murder of a famous soccer coach and find out who stole the infamous Pink Panther diamond.Why? Why Steve Martin? Why?
- DirectorOliver HirschbiegelStarsNicole KidmanDaniel CraigJeremy NorthamAs a Washington, D.C. psychiatrist unearths the origin of an alien epidemic, she also discovers her son might be the only way it can be stopped.Bad.
