  1. Moonfall
    Recommending that someone actually subject themselves to Roland Emmerich’s sci-fi neo-disaster flick, however, is a little like shoving three-month old milk under an unsuspecting person’s nose and inquiring, Does this smell ok? You already know the answer; you just need to share the pain.
  2. Showtime
    Add Showtime to the pile of Hollywood dreck that represents nothing more than the art of the deal.
  3. The Goldfinch
    The only achievement in transferring The Goldfinch from page to screen is that it’s a botch job for the ages.
  4. The War with Grandpa
    It’s 94 minutes that you won’t remember seconds after its over. You could always just throw down the white flag before shots are fired and save yourself the trouble.
  5. The Sum of All Fears
    How the hell did Ben Affleck, 29, wind up replacing Harrison Ford, 59, as our hero? Who's next as Ryan -- Ozzy Osbourne's guppy son, Jack? Chronology hasn't been this royally fucked with since Memento.
  6. Big Trouble
    The big problem with Big Trouble, despite a fine cast and director (Sonnenfeld made "Get Shorty" and "Men in Black"), is that the damn thing isn't funny.
  7. Like a Boss
    What we have here is a comedy on life support, with Haddish and Byrne valiantly performing futile acts of resuscitation. Sorry to report: The patient died.
  8. M3GAN 2.0
    The overbaked, underwhelming, narratively restless movie itself is 0.0 percent watchable.
  9. Morbius
    If it’s not the worst of these films, it’s certainly the most anemic — and even die-hard fans are apt to feel completely drained by all of it.
  10. The Kitchen
    The Kitchen is deadly serious — and worse, deadly dull, even when it tries to act tough by laying on the violence and a heaping side of gore.
  11. Venom
    This year gave us the best and most imaginative Marvel film in "Black Panther." Now we have the worst.
  12. I Know What You Did Last Summer
    It’s the sensation that you’re watching something that’s sloppy, overthought, undercooked and can’t decide whether it wants to honor the original (it fails), add to both the in-house lore and the longstanding genre tropes of the slasher canon (it does not), or some combo of both (two missed opportunities for the price of one).
  13. The Mummy Returns
    We have to suffer through two hours of this rancid summer cheese.
  14. Reign of Fire
    So what's not to like? There's the bad CGI, the choppy pacing, the comically intense acting, the repetition, the dullness and mostly the idiot plot about how there's only one male dragon and everything will be fine if they kill the Big Dick. Wha? Somebody get a hose and put this Fire out.
  15. Becky
    This ultra-violent, ultra-stupid smarm-bomb deserves to take a few lumps before shuffling off to the digital boneyard.
  16. Angel Eyes
    A romantic thriller of more than usual ineptitude.
  17. Force of Nature
    There is nothing distinctive about this toxic available-on-demand tripe except the absence of Mark Polish, though Michael didn’t spare his wife Kate Bosworth from acting duty in a thankless role. One thing’s for sure: This downpour of offensive ethnic stereotyping is a total washout.
  18. Peppermint
    Even if male stars from Neeson to Bruce Willis have been riding the same gravy train for decades, Garner has the talent to make us expect more. She needed support from the filmmakers. But what did she get? A lazy facsimile of the revenge movie she so richly deserved. There’s no reason audiences should accept it.
  19. Maleficent: Mistress of Evil
    This misbegotten sequel to 2014’s not-so-hot Maleficent is a torturous exercise in brightly-colored monotony that chokes on repetitive screenwriting, amateurish directing, paycheck performances and digital hardware for a heart. Kids under five (months) might be fooled, but sentient filmgoers know a scam when they see one.
  20. Sweet November
    Beware all male viewers who enter here, you are in chick-movie hell.
  21. Jurassic Park III
    Stinks worse than dino dung. Sure, the creatures look good.
  22. Miss Congeniality
    I'd rather be buried in a mound of Floridian chad than watch director Donald Petrie force Bullock to jump through another desperately unfunny comic hoop.

  23. Swordfish
    Exhibits rank incompetence on every level.
  24. Dark Phoenix
    Dark Phoenix doesn’t just suck big time. It’s the worst movie ever in the X-Men series.
  25. Night School
    No matter how much money this clunker makes, this is a movie that never should have happened.
  26. Crazy/Beautiful
    From the lowercase lettering of the title to the deadly familiarity of the plot, there is much to grate on your nerves in this TV Afterschool Special trying to pass as a real movie.
  27. Scooby-Doo
    Get out your pooper-scoopers. Doo happens June 14th, warn the ads for Scooby-Doo. And they say there's no truth in Hollywood.
  28. Serendipity
    Does romantic comedy have to come off as sugared stupidity? It does here.
  29. Last Christmas
    It makes sense that Last Christmas isn’t coming out at the end of December but right on the cusp of Thanksgiving. It’s a bona fide holiday-movie turkey.
  30. 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.
