  1. Pumpkin
    Witless, insulting satire of sorority girls that shamelessly ridicules the mentally challenged. The filmmakers aren't exactly Mensa candidates themselves.

  2. Ballistic: Ecks vs. Sever
    To pay for all the explosions and stunt work, the filmmakers must have decided to skimp on the screenplay. The rule of thumb is that one page of script equals one minute of movie, but there is so little dialogue in Ballistic that it could have been written on a matchbook.
  3. Boat Trip
    Cuba Gooding Jr. can just return his "Jerry Maguire" Oscar right now. He has no excuse for making Boat Trip, a perniciously unfunny comedy.
  4. Taxi
    Bad as he is, Fallon cannot claim Taxi's worst moment. That belongs to Ann-Margret.
  5. Who Is Cletis Tout?
    It all makes the head spin -- in the direction of the exit sign.
  6. Pulse
    Hideously ugly to look at and not even worth following.
  7. Boarding Gate
    A ridiculous poseur thriller that seems to be made up of the slow moments from Hong Kong action films and Euro-flashy stuff like "Run Lola Run."
  8. Soul Plane
    Gross, nearly unwatchable comedy.
  9. The New Wizard of Oz
    You may need fortification for this astonishingly bad movie.
  10. The Sculptress
    Close call as to who's career has sunk farthest.
  11. I Am Sam
    It's a difficult issue, one that is not well served by a hollow confection like I Am Sam.
  12. Blackwoods
    Cheesy horror flick that feels like straight-to-video material.
    • New York Daily News
  13. Underworld: Evolution
    The esteemed actor Derek Jacobi goes slumming as someone who pulls that metal badge from the chest of a cadaver. Shakespeare it's not.
  14. Buddy Boy
    If you want pretentious and unsavory, check out Buddy Boy.
  15. Wake
    Given a plot and dialogue that ring entirely false, we're left with a bunch of unpleasant characters who do unpleasant things for no apparent reason. Enjoy.

    Simon Sez
    Rodman makes former co-star Jean-Claude Van Damme look like Jean-Paul Belmondo.
  17. Boricua's Bond
    If you haven't had enough of the Central Park rampage videos showing human nature at its worst, you could always pay to see Boricua's Bond.
  18. Party Monster
    Macaulay Culkin still can't act, and it's no longer cute. His performance in Party Monster is so embarrassing one doesn't know where to look.
  19. DOA: Dead or Alive
    "Charlie's Angels," "Survivor," "American Gladiators" and "Girls Gone Wild" are just some of the bad influences on Hong Kong action director Corey Yuen's laughably silly adaptation of the video game DOA: Dead or Alive.
  20. Close Your Eyes
    Adapted - badly and unfaithfully - Close Your Eyes is a convoluted jumble of paranormal psychology, occultism and pagan symbolism, topped off with a quest for immortality.
  21. Slackers
    Slackers depends on the pathetic Ethan and the flatulent Sam for most of its laughs, and both characters are more revolting than amusing.
  22. Two Weeks Notice
    Sandra Bullock and Hugh Grant are distilled to the very essence of their annoying tics and quirks.
  23. The Notebook
    Two hours of the worst sort of sentimental sap.
    • 52 Metascore
    • 25 Critic Score
    Splendor
    A fair amount of laughs and a spunky dose of charm from the three leads, which adds up to some meaningless, if perverted, fun.
  25. Big Bad Love
    If the point of this umpteenth posttraumatic stress drama is that war is hell, even years after it's over and you're sitting in a movie theater, Big Bad Love makes it.
    • New York Daily News
  26. Deuces Wild
    Deuces Wild is the worst thing to have happened to Brooklyn since the Ice Age severed it from the mainland.
  27. The Haunted Mansion
    A tepid comedy whose only saving grace is the face of Jennifer Tilly in a crystal ball.
  28. Daltry Calhoun
    A weird, unpleasant little movie.
  29. This Ain't No Heartland
    This is as cheesy and irrelevant as political documentaries get. Horvath, who is openly critical of the invasion of Iraq, makes game of a handful of Iowans and Nebraskans who are either too dumb, too drunk or too uninterested to have an informed opinion about it.
  30. Bad Company
    The main problem with this whole Jerry Bruckheimer-produced mess is that they took a promising comedy setup and squandered it by trying to make a legitimate spy thriller out of it.
