  1. Vacation
    Leslie Mann and wild-card Chris Hemsworth, as her cock-flashing hubby, get the heartiest hoots. The rest is comic history warmed over.
  2. Love Hurts
    Love may hurt, sure. But it’s not nearly as painful as being forced to watch a great actor stuck in a bad movie.
  3. Jonah Hex
    Jonah is fated to ride alone. Don't make the mistake of keeping him company.
  4. Collateral Damage
    Abort! Abort! It's that time of year when Hollywood releases movies it should never have made in the first place.
  5. Diamonds
    Isn't much of a movie, but it's worth a look just to see screen legend Kirk Douglas, Michael's eighty-three-year-old father, kick ass.

  6. Lara Croft: Tomb Raider
    Slick-dick director Simon West, of "Con Air" and "The General's Daughter" infamy, continues to show no flair at all for blending action and character. Jolie and Lara deserved better. So did we.
  7. The Divergent Series: Allegiant
    If only their stuff had a spark of life it might be forgivable, but Allegiant plods along like a franchise on its last legs. Who remembers where we left off last time in Insurgent? My point exactly — no one.
  8. The Only Living Boy in New York
    Even the best actors – and this coming-of-age movie boasts a handful of them – can't fight this much tin-eared dialogue.
  9. Bedtime Stories
    The shortage of wit and the excess of goo can be summed up in Sandler's line to these children of divorce: "I'm like the stink on your feet — I'll always be there."
  10. House of D
    The film looks and feels authentic, but Duchovny has powered his undeniably personal journey with a counterfeit heart.
  11. Welcome to Mooseport
    A comedy so devoid of wit and point that not mentioning the other actors trapped in this rathole would be an act of charity.

    Five Nights at Freddy's
    As a narrative that pretends to plumb the dark absence of missing children, however, Five Nights at Freddy’s is curiously inert, unwilling to get under your skin even as it grows dense with explanations of what’s happening.
  13. Air America
    The movie that might have been goes down in flames.
  14. Gulliver's Travels
    At one point, Black puts out a fire by pissing on it. It's my job as a critic to piss on this dumb excuse for a movie. Consider it done.
  15. Sucker Punch
    Looks aren't everything. Case in point: Sucker Punch, a dazzling visual design that goes tone-deaf every time it opens its dumb mouth or makes claims to profundity.
  16. The Space Between Us
    While director Peter Chelsom (Funny Bones, Serendipity) can functionally guide his cast through their derring-do and dewy-eyed paces, neither he nor screenwriter Allan Loeb can steer the whole endeavor out of Clichéville U.S.A.
  17. The Last Song
    The only tragedy you'll face is paying good money to this swill.
  18. Annie
    When a stage musical as beloved as Annie hits the big screen and falls ignominiously on its fat one, you might ask: WTF? For starters, updating the Depression-era tale to NYC 2014 is a really dumb idea. The strain of the shoehorning is evident in every scene.
  19. The Amityville Horror
    Result? It's not scary, just busy.
  20. Original Sin
    An erotic thriller with flaws.
  21. Impostor
    Director Gary Fleder ("Don't Say a Word") pushes the same old cliches in "Blade Runner" packaging.
  22. Fifty Shades Darker
    This, however, is not Mamet – it's a beast of roaring stupidity that devours everything in its path, including the veteran filmmaker.
  23. Just Go with It
    It's the perfect Valentine's date night movie, but only with someone you hate.
  24. The Human Centipede (First Sequence)
    The only way to react is by bringing a barf bag or a strong sense of gallows humor.
  25. After Earth
    The young Smith has energy, but not the acting chops. And he's no miracle worker. The burden of carrying this dull, lifeless movie is just too much. And it's hell on an audience. It's not a good sign when you sit there thinking – Make. It. Stop.
  26. Big Momma's House
    How special.
    • Rolling Stone
  27. Class of 1999
    This SCI-FI swill is the brain-child of director Mark L. Lester (Class of 1984), who says it’s really about “kids and the future of urban public education.” No, it’s not. It’s about kids and teachers kicking ass for two benumbing hours. What a waste.
  28. Very Bad Things
    This is Berg's debut outing as a director, but other first-timers, namely Joel Coen (Blood Simple) and Danny Boyle (Shallow Grave), had it all over him for blending horror and hilarity.
  29. The Dukes of Hazzard
    There is no wrong time to flush this turd. The only bright spot comes during the outtakes over the final credits.
  30. The 5th Wave
    Despite the strong presence of Kick-Ass star Chloe Grace Moretz as Cassie, the movie is selling the same old YA yada yada yada that made phenoms of "Twilight" and "Divergent."
