    The Fault in Our Stars
    This movie is so tone-deaf it would only make sense in Vincent van Gogh’s missing ear.

    Grown Ups
    Nobody escapes unscathed, except, of course, for Sandler, who co-wrote the infantile screenplay.

    The Last Airbender
    A toxic potion that will put children to sleep and kill his (M. Night Shyamalan) career.

    Run All Night
    If you’re a fan of the “Taken” movies and tend to give action-hero Neeson the benefit of the doubt, our advice here is simple: Run away!

    The Mechanic
    Even by the sloppy, soulless standards of hit man movies, The Mechanic is a mess.

    Hesher
    For the rest of his life, Spencer Susser can brag to the other ditch diggers that he persuaded two of the best young actors in Hollywood to star in one of the worst movies ever made.

    Alex Cross
    Formulaic serial-killer crapola.

    Marmaduke
    "Beverly Hills Chihuahua," we owe you an apology. Among talking-dog movies, Marmaduke is the runt of the litter.

    The Best of Me
    Sparks would be delighted if this movie were compared to his other story about reunited lovers, but compared to “The Notebook,” The Best of Me is the coffee-stained outline of a sales pitch for sleeping pills.

    New Year's Eve
    The sanitized setting and sappy script are so littered with cardboard characters and crass product placements that you'll mourn for the muggers and porno theaters that De Niro cursed in "Taxi Driver."

    Jersey Boys
    The worst thing about this multifaceted failure is the two-time Oscar winner behind the camera. Where there ought to be a director, there’s nothing but an empty chair.

    Law Abiding Citizen
    A vigilante/torture-porn potpourri, is particularly toxic because it's scented with phony importance.

    Machete Kills
    When a celebrity chef like Rodriguez is just going through the motions, we can smell that the grindhouse fad is way past its expiration date. It's time to put a fork in it.

    Endless Love
    This stinker is only good for endless laughs.
    • 33 Metascore

    After Earth
    Surprise — this bad dream is for real.

    The Divergent Series: Insurgent
    There is such a thing as an infinitely bad movie, and this is it.
