    The Gospel According to Philip K. Dick
    Anyone interested in this remarkably prolific author would be better off visiting a library or bookshop.

    The Musketeer
    An example of lazy, dumb and couldn't-care-less hack movie making.

    Jurassic Park III
    The "Jurassic Park" movie franchise does not evolve. Quite the opposite: It degenerates at great speed.

    Honey
    Lacks even a trace of imagination. Its by-the-numbers plot is depressingly familiar, and each line of dialogue is so predictable that the script... could have been generated by a computer.

    The Affair of the Necklace
    It's hard to imagine how Shyer and script writer John Sweet could have brought this tale to the screen in a cruder, cornier or less interesting way.

    Atrociously written.

    3 Strikes
    A criminally slow, all-but-laughless blaxploitation comedy.

    Swordfish
    It's a film that reeks of stupidity and cynicism, one that makes you feel soiled just to have sat through it.

    Black Knight
    If this cheesy, cheap-looking update of "A Connecticut Yankee at King Arthur's Court" had been co-produced by the Ku Klux Klan itself, it could hardly be more repellently stereotypical.

    Next Friday
    The whole movie is so ineptly written and directed that its 90 minutes seem to take twice as long.

    The Rules of Attraction
    Looks and feels like a bad imitation of "Trainspotting" without any of that film's wit or charm.

    National Security
    Everything about National Security is so lazy and uninspired, it's hard to believe that director Dennis Dugan also made "Happy Gilmore," arguably Adam Sandler's funniest movie.

    Extreme Ops
    A pathetically inane and unimaginative cross between "XXX" and "Vertical Limit," it could only harm the careers of everyone involved in its making - including top British stage actors Rufus Sewell and Rupert Graves.

    Adored
    Not only is Adored amateurish and mawkish even by the standards of American "gaysploitation" cinema, it's weirdly shy about showing nudity and sex.

    Original Sin
    Even the lovemaking scenes between two of Hollywood's most attractive stars -- often shot from above, like Cinemax soft porn -- are so unerotic, they make your skin crawl.

    Gods and Generals
    The film's staggering incompetence can be measured by the way it makes some of the most fascinating and heart-rending episodes in American history tedious.

    Kung Pow: Enter the Fist
    An inept, tedious spoof of '70s kung fu pictures, it contains almost enough chuckles for a three-minute sketch, and no more.

    Citizen Toxie: The Toxic Avenger IV
    Laughs are few and far between, and the film feels brutally long.

    Chelsea Walls
    Calling it pretentious doesn't do justice to the toxic faux-bohemianism and unearned self-regard that bubble and ooze out of every aspect of Chelsea Walls.

    The Disappearance of Finbar
    Part of the problem is that the Finbar character is both underdeveloped and unattractive - you don't get a sense of why anyone would miss him, let alone go searching for him in the snow. [17 Mar 2000]

    Summer Catch is the sludge at the bottom of the barrel.

    Haiku Tunnel
    Amazingly amateurish, the film lands wide of satirical targets that should be impossible to miss.

    One Night at McCool's
    A strong, early candidate for the worst movie of the year.

    8 ½ Women
    More prettily photographed pretentious rubbish from the ridiculous Peter Greenaway.

    Ice from the Sun
    Every possible film student visual cliché (plus quite a few from the world of music video) gets a thorough workout.

    Timeline
    It reeks of contempt for the audience. This is not just a "B-movie" -- it's a B-movie that fails to entertain on any level.

    The Whole Ten Yards
    Bereft of inspiration, the agonizingly witless screenplay - blamed by the credits on George Gallo - resorts to pathetic cheap jokes about flatulence and impotence, lame slapstick and that juvenile gag about the horror of two men waking up naked in the same bed.
