Worst Film of 2013?

* Article on the 2013 Razzies

What movie of this past year or movies did you think were just the worst and why?

For myself, 'The Lone Ranger' was horrid. It was too long, it was cheesy, relatively predictable, Johnny Depp's antics were tiresome (after years of PotC) and even the action was unexciting. The best part of the movie was the soft drink passing through my kidneys during and after.

'Grown Ups 2' takes second place. While I saw the first one recently on tv and it seemed pretty good (for a comedy. I don't often go out of my way to watch comedies) I was still wary. Finally, it came out on Red Box. While a few moments were marginally funny, largely the movie was sub-par and some of the humor was so juvenile and forced I actually felt embarassed for the actors. Overall, not very satisfying.

'After Earth' takes third place. While a lot of charges of nepotism and "LOL SCIENTOLOGY" were leveled at this attempt at a sci-fi drama, I think the biggest issue was more of some horrible prop and atmospheric choices. Sci-fi films live and die on their atmosphere and the level in which the user can immerse themselves in a different world. From the gritty neo-noir world of Blade Runner to the clean and bright future of Star Trek : TNG, we get a lot of different ideas of what the future should look like. None of them resemble pseudo-organic looking tech with other things best resembling styrofoam and latex. Onboard the ship and in some of the 'colony homes', things were supposed to look exotic and futuristic and ended up looking just cheap and flimsy. It took out any element of standard enjoyability and left the storyline which is the whole "son learns to relate to hard military father and finds out he is not such a rebellious douchebag after all", which SNORE. Also, the alien was stupid and overly CGI.

So, the floor is open for the rest of you. Go for it!

Depp is a bad actor for many years, as for Sandler, well! He's not even a comedian, for from it 😆 He's a idiot moron!!

The sad part is that Depp at least had some real acting talent and did some respectable films before he became Jack Sparrow everything. He's typecast himself and doesn't care, because he can buy his own island with the money as it is.

Sandler's already been singled out as one of the most overpaid actors in Hollywood, considering how his films turn out, and this was before 'Grown Ups 2' premiered. I never thought he was amazing, but Grown Ups 1 impressed me enough to try the second. Not worth the cost of the rental, tbh.

Worst movie is a toss-up between After Earth and the fifth Die Hard

My sister and I actually walked out of The Family, about 40 minutes in. So, I don't really have a choice but to vote for it as worst movie of 2013.

Before seeing that turd, there had been only one instance in my entire life in which I'd actually walked out of the theater for a movie that I paid money to watch; the first was Transformers 2, but that only sort of counts because I had already seen it in theaters two weeks prior, and I only walked out because my Dad was so offended by the ghetto-bots that he walked out first.

So yeah, The Family. **** that movie.

Really? So 'The Family' was that bad?

I know Hugh Jackson, Halle Barry & Naomi Watts got razzies for their part in Movie 43.

But honestly I've never laughed so much after watching that movie.
It was gross, inappropriate & very childish in parts but very funny too.

I think????? I'm sure though, it was a setup in other Movies. I watch it, though it could have been better as a setup. It was alright...3/5

The first Jack Sparrow was alright, but it was boring at the end.

Naomi Watts got a razzie... 😆 As Diana. I've never seen it, but she has talent....so,so talent.

After Earth, Jaden Smith can not act

Bullet to the Head
movie 43
Scary Movie 5
The Purge
Diana

All of those were beyond shit.

I don't watch bad movies.

My time is far too valuable to be spent watching movies I expect to suck.

After Earth, Grown Ups 2, lol? **** no I didn't see no shit like that.

For me, personally?

Man of Steel.

I know it wasn't objectively the worst movie of the year, nor nearly the worst I've seen, but after watching it, I felt a gnawing emptiness clinging to the outlines of my very soul, threatening to submerge me in a black ocean of sorrow and unhappiness. I suppose it was because I was desperately hoping for more, and indeed expected more before it was ever out, so when I finally saw it, while I didn't hate everything the movie did, it was so thoroughly and agonizingly disappointing that for me, it was definitely the worst movie of the year.

How would you know if it's a bad Film, if you haven't seen it? Friends or blogs and sh*t?

After Earth is directed by M. Night, that's a good enough warning sign already.

I went by that logic too. Beats me why people still fund his movies. Especially after Lady in the Water.

And don't get me started on The Village.

He hasn't made a truly good film since Unbreakable (My favorite of his, and one of my favorite movies in general actually) IMO, even Signs, while not nearly as bad as what came after, was definitely a preview of what was to come. Everything afterwards was just a spiraling descent into terribleness, finally reaching the Event Horizon (Not the movie, the movie is great) of awfulness that was The Last Airbender, which like a fool I saw in theaters, despite knowing how awful it was going to turn out to be. But I didn't know, not really, nothing could have prepared me for or led me to believe the levels of shit M. Night was peddling was even possible.

I f*cking love Unbreakable.

I have a nine year old daughter, and I had to sit through a travesty of a film called Planes.

This movie is shit covered shit. To add insult to injury, Dane "The most not funny human alive" Cook is the star.

You do too watch shit movies, bro. You just made better decisions this past year.

Also, M. Night is pretty much useless at this point, I agree. Personally, I would have liked MoS better if it had more Faora.
