Bad Movies

There was an article from Yahoo! about the worst movies of the decade. I went through a few and read some of the reviews. There were some hilarious quotes about the badness of these movies. A full list of the 100 worst movies of the decade can be found here. Here are a few of my favorites...

"I personally know a dozen 10-year-olds who could come up with a better plot than this." -Eleanor Ringel Gillespie (Ballistic: Ecks v Sever)

"A pathetically unfunny comedy that should have been shipped straight to video, if not recycled as guitar picks." -Lou Lumenick (Kickin' It Old Skool)

"A story that might be enacted by a deranged and sexually confused 12-year-old girl with her barbie dolls." -Lou Thompson (The In Crowd)

"It's absolutely worthless nonsense that's almost bad enough to make me wish cinema had never been invented." -Daily Mirror (Half Past Dead)

"You've seen better mysteries on Murder She Wrote, you'll hear better dialogue in an Ed Wook flick, and you'll experience better sex scenes on a hot day at your local zoo." -Scott Weinberg (Twisted)

"It's just the most inept filmmaking you can catch in theatres right now, or probably all year long." -Marc Savlov (Alone in the Dark)

"Turkeys don't come plumper than this." -Peter Bradshaw (Killing Me Softly)

"It's hard to determine exactly where I gave up on Down To You, but I'm pretty sure it was right after the opening credits." -Scott Mantz (Down To You)

"Depressingly laugh-free comedy that's so irredeemably awful that you'll wonder why Martin Lawrence isn't in it." -Matthew Turner (Code Name: The Cleaner)

"It hasn't got a clue where it's going, or which movie it wants to copy most." -Audrey Rock-Richardson (Deuces Wild)

"Here is a film so pitiful, it doesn't rise to the level of badness. It is hopelessly incompetent." -Roger Ebert (Dirty Love)

"No words can describe how truly awful this movie is." -Greg Maki (The New Guy)

"Abysmal film that's an embarrassment to all concerned." -Matthew Turner (Dragonfly)

"No logic, no laughs, a classic 'take-the-money-and-run' sequel which had me praying for a projector malfunction or some other excuse to leave the theatre early." -Kam Williams (Big Momma's House 2)

"Torture. Impossible to imagine how it could've been worse." -Simon Braund (Gigli)

"Not only would I not see this movie, I wouldn't see any movie playing in the same multiplex." -Ben Mankiewicz (College)

"The most fascinating thing about this movie is why they thought anyone would want to see it." -Brooke Holgerson (Fascination)
