Worst Movies I Have Ever Seen

This is a list of some of the worst movies I have ever seen.1. Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas (2003) This animated Brad Pitt/Michelle Pfeiffer-lead adventure made $6.8 million the first weekend then just over $20 million the next 2 months. Shows that Brad Pitt needs either Angelina Jolie (Mr. and Mrs. Smith) or George Clooney (Ocean’s trilogy) to succeed. OPEN WEEKEND: $6.874 mil. CLOSE: $26.288 mil.2. Live Free or Die Hard (2007) I saw this movie at a friend’s house not too long ago. The action really drove the film, but that was it. There was no spectacular plot. It was just some guy trying to take over the world. It’s the typical action film that makes a lot of money because of awesome visual effects. OPEN WEEKEND:  $33.369 mil. CLOSE: $134.275 mil.3. The Longest Yard (2005) This Adam Sandler movie made an attempt to make a football comedy. What the filmmaker didn’t understand is that football movies need to be serious, sports movies in general need, to be taken seriously. Movies like Facing the Giants, Miracle, and The Rookie stay away from overwhelming  comedic outbursts and come out as spectacular. OPEN WEEKEND: $26.078 mil. CLOSE: $158.115 mil. (Note: in theatres for 4 months)4. Left Behind: Tribulation Force (2002) (Only released on video) I saw this movie because I read the books (except for the last 2). The first one was one of my favorites, but this one kind of disappointed me. The third movie did the same thing: it strayed away from what the books said. 5. Romeo + Juliet (1996) What in the world? You take Leonardo DiCaprio, one of the upcoming film stars at the time, and make him speak in Old English. Craig Pearce, the screenwriter, has only written one script since this movie, Moulin Rogue!. I’ve never seen it, but I wonder if MR! was bad. These are movies that I never want to see again. But I would tolerate it , well, numbers 5 and 4 I could stand. 

Top 10 Movies (Once Again)

I know this could get annoying after a while, but oh well.
(Only comments on new posts)
1. Ocean’s Eleven
2. Ferris Bueller’s Day Off
3. The Princess Bride
4. The Bourne Ultimatum-The best sequel I have ever seen.
5. I Am Legend-I Am Officially a Will Smith fan.
6. Left Behind
7. Hitch-Another Will Smith vehicle. A great comedy.
8. Napoleon Dynamite-Has my favorite movie line of all-time: “You’re just jealous ’cause I’ve been chatting online with babes all day.”
9. National Treasure-Everything I love: action, music, history…
10. Miracle-I forgot one thing I love in the list above: hockey. This movie has plenty of it.

HM: Catch Me If You Can, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, Transformers, The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe

By the way, 7 through 10 and the HMs are interchangeable. It depends on how I feel.

On Screen: David Strathairn

I watched We Are Marshall and noticed an actor that appeared in two other movies I had seen. His name was David Strathairn.
I saw him in The Bourne Ultimatum, Good Night and Good Luck, and the aforementioned Marshall. In these movies he plays three different roles.
In Good Night and Good Luck, he plays Edward Murrow, a broadcaster that talks about the bad stuff about McCarthyism and the Red Scare. I need to watch the entire thing. George Clooney’s in it too, by the way.
In The Bourne Ultimatum (which I put on my Christmas list), Strathairn plays Ezra , the head of the FBI and a guy who will do anything to get Jason Bourne killed. Matt Damon kinda stars in that movie.
In We Are Marshall, he plays the president of Marshall University who is commissioned to find a new head football coach after the entire football team died in a plane crash. A minor role, but a great one.

Strathairn’s next movie will be The Spiderwick Chronicles, which IMDb’s Plot Outline reads, “Upon moving into the run-down Spiderwick Estate with their mother, twin brothers Jared and Simon Grace, along with their sister Mallory, find themselves pulled into an alternate world full of faeries and other creatures.” Strathairn plays Arthur Spiderwick. Look for it in February of next year.
