Rotten Tomatoes Worst of the Worst List

It's a list of the worst reviewed movies of the decade. Happily, there's not any movie I like there, which makes me feel like I must have good taste or something.

I only seen one on the list and I did quite like it. Dragonfly

Most of the others look so silly I wouldn't even consider watching them! Like.. Witless Protection... Hottie and Nottie... I wouldn't mind getting Number 1 out just for fun, though.

KTC · Sep 25, 2009

I scrolled through just to make sure THE KRANKS was on that list. I think it should be at the top. Bad story. Bad acting. Bad everything. One of the worst I've ever seen.

SPMiller · Sep 25, 2009

I'm disappointed that I haven't seen even one of those movies

Prozyan · Sep 25, 2009

Man, Whiteout was just released two weeks ago. That's some impressive badness to crack the list.

Prozyan · Sep 25, 2009

Also, I'm sad to say so far I've seen most of these films

Oh god, BloodRayne. My sister and I saw that in the theater. It was just us and one other guy. We all mocked it mercilessly the whole way through.

That's the only one I've seen.

Perks · Sep 25, 2009

The only one I'd seen on the list was 88 Minutes and although I don't recall particularly liking it, I know for a fact I didn't despise it (and myself for sitting through it) as I did Rachel Getting Married. And that one got an 86% fresh rating.

I love movies, but movie reviewing is a racket that confounds me.

I saw In the Name of the King, and I didn't hate it as much as the rest of the planet seems to have done. It was on a par with most made-for-SyFy channel movies. That kinda says it all.

Noumenon · Sep 25, 2009

Basic Instinct 2 (at 97) is no masterpiece, but it isn't so bad as to deserve a place in the Worst 100. It's just a fairly solid film noir with the misfortune to be associated with some soft-core thriller that should be remembered only for what Bill Hicks said about it.

Godsend (57) though, that's deserving. Friends of mine pissed themselves at the beheading scene in Bless The Child (29), the Rollerball remake (28) was an embarrassment, and if Battlefield Earth only reached 27 someone was bribing the judges. Everything higher than that I've not seen - but it was good to see Uwe Boll catch three titles in the forties.

Noumenon said:

Yeah, personally Battlefield Earth should made at least the top five...if not #1. That movie proves that Scientology has diasterous affects on one's judgement.

Calla Lily · Sep 25, 2009

I saw Lost Souls, and it deserved its bad rating. I knew it was going to suck right away because if its inattention to details like this: Rider, the poor church mouse character, dresses for her inner-city low-paying job--in a pure linen blouse that would've cost me half a paycheck. Silly, I know, but I figure if the director can't pay attention to scene/character details like that, the rest of the movie will be equally unbelievable. Turns out I was right.

childeroland · Sep 25, 2009

Soul Survivors and Legend of Chun-Li should be higher on this list.

shawkins · Sep 25, 2009

I, um, kind of liked Soul Survivors.

maestrowork · Sep 25, 2009

I admit I have seen quite a number of them (I review movies -- that's my job), and I agree with a lot of them. WORSE movies ever? Maybe not, but they certainly are not that good. 88 Minutes sucked so bad. Whiteout was a huge disappointment -- but it was the WORST? Worse than Glitter? I don't think so.

My personal worst would be The Promise (from China). I gave the film 2/10. And it was doubly sad because it was the most expensive movie ever made in China.

sydney · Sep 25, 2009

There are too many bad ones to comment on lol
Because I Said So (4%) - AW! I think this movie is so cute...
I can't believe there are 0% movies. Wow.

dpaterso · Sep 25, 2009

Kinda dull at the top of the list, so I skipped to the top 10 and the only movie I'd seen happened to be the #1 title. Which, while it didn't ding bells, seems an odd choice for worst movie of the decade. Shrug, each to their own tastes.

I wish I could say I'd never seen any, but The Boy loved Doogal. Loved. Watched it back to back some days. Oh, gods my eyes! They bleed!

He seemed to like Happily Never After. Had to watch that more than 10 times too.

The Name of the King was a last resort to avoid an argument.

Battlefield Earth. Funny cheese. Good for background noise on Sunday afternoon as I paint my toenails.

I think Strange Wilderness may have played in the background while I was trying to write on the laptop.

I've been forced to watch way too many bad movies.

Jersey Chick · Sep 25, 2009

I've seen two of the movies on that list. One was for my daughter's b-day (she had a movie party and that was what she chose - Happily N'Ever After). I didn't like either of them. Whew... my taste isn't as bad as I thought it was.

Millicent M'Lady · Sep 25, 2009

Aw maaannn. I liked The New Guy. Stop judging me!

RickN · Sep 25, 2009

I've seen about half the movies on the list, but saw none at the theater. All were netflixed to me, so the pain was not so bad. I could turn them off or multitask.

Anyone who pays to see a Larry the Cable Guy movie deserves what they get. I must assume alcohol was involved.

childeroland · Sep 25, 2009

New Best Friend is a guilty pleasure for me, but an erotic thriller with Mia Kirshner and Dominique Swain is not to be missed.

Cyia · Sep 25, 2009

LoL, the Christmas movies listed are some of my mom's favorites!

maestrowork · Sep 25, 2009

I'm still baffled by Whiteout's win (or loss, however you want to look at it) to Glitter. Really? Surely Kate Beckinsale's shower scene and ass would have score some good points. I think the Rotten Tomatoes critics are blind.

dclary · Sep 25, 2009

Cheaper by the Dozen 2 wasn't egregious, IIRC. Its audience clearly isn't Rotten Tomato reviewers, though.

Dungeon Siege: In the Name of the King was a movie so bad, I clamoured about how insane it was that they'd gotten so much name talent in a movie that horrific. I'm amazed it only came in at 49th.

Good call on #1 though.
