Now for the worst of the worst. But before I get started I want to give a shout out to that crime movie with Jamie Lannister. I didn't review it here, but it was the most boring, uneventful film I saw all year. It was as if the makers were going for a Coen feel, without knowing what makes it. But, it wasn't completely terrible so a shout out is fine.
6- Assassin's Creed
Assassin's Creed continues the tradition of good video games being made into bad films. And what really makes this one worse, is the complete waste of the talent involved. It could have broken the mold, but instead conformed to the genre.
5- Flatliners
Once again, talent has been wasted. They took a good concept, added in a solid cast, director, and writer, and then put them all in a paper shredder, then a blender, and tried to salvage what was left. Of course the end result was utter rubbish.
4- The Mummy
The worst, most incompetent and obvious attempt at a cash in this year. Neither fun nor scary, and was made to tick boxes and cash cheques.
3- Sleepless
This film easily has the worst action of any film this year. It also has an extremely boring plot, uninteresting characters, and a perceived lack of enthusiasm from everyone involved.
2- Inhumans
Inhumane is the perfect word to describe... "this", whatever it is. There was a complete lack of competence in every aspect of making Nonpeoples that made it to the screen. It was definitely the laziest thing I've seen in cinemas this year. At least they kind of tried to do something (make money) with The Mummy. I honestly don't think anyone involved with Not-homosapiens put their full effort in once they saw the script and realised it can't be salvaged. I don't care if it's not technically a film, I used a gift card to watch it in IMAX(!), so I will consider it so and rant accordingly. It's fair to say that I hated Inhummus.
1- Fist Fight
I absolutely hated this "comedy". I've done my best to purge all memory of this film from my mind. But what I can't do, is forget the awkward boredom of being in a cinema, watching a "comedy" where nobody was laughing. The utterly unfunny jokes were made even worse by the awkward space for laughter which was left silent. Everything about this film was rotten, and I'm done with it.
Please, please, please, don't watch any of these films. Save yourself. Save the Rebellion. Save the dream.
