The only real thing I hated about Braveheart was that it was exhaustively long. Didn't mind Kevin in Rumor Has It mind you that was more a Jen Aniston movie. And I liked Jersey Girl, more for that cute little girl and George Carlin...Afleck was totally replaceable.

How about 3 flumpers...Star Wars Episodes 1-3.
1 - wasn't total garbage, I liked the lightsaber fight scenes but the story wasn't very streamlined with far too many sceneries involved for a single plot.
2 - Lucas tried to make an epic looking battle and theres where he concentrated on to make a good introduction to the Clone Wars...but the story leading up to it was long and boring...basically *blah*blah**blah*blah*blah*blah*blah*blah*blah*the n FIGHT*then blah*blah*blah*...Hayden Christensen put too much effort into acting good that he acted bad.
3 - both Ewan and Hayden seemed tired of playing the rolls of Obi Wan and Anakin...plus far too much CG now, please go back to wire-fu.

Hahaha, Bughut.

I know that the first time I saw it, with a group of female friends... the cinema erupted (including most of my friends) - whilst I sat there saying 'crap history, crap costumes, crap accents'.....

Ho hum You know your husband probably saved your life, don't you?

Bughut,

If you wanted to, and couldn't bring yourself to, like RHPS I strongly recommend that you check out Brian DePalma's Phantom of the Paradise. Glam-rock, whacky outfits, musical numbers and Paul "the human muppet" Williams as the bad guy. If you don't like it, you don't have a heart.

I'll give it a go Allan. I do enjoy the camp, wild,culture that has developed around it. And guys in stockings, heels and basques are a hoot.
Back in the day I went to a screening where everyone was dressed up and totally in the groove. it was a total blast. The audience was the entertainment.

Rocky Horror sucks and not in the cool way that Buckaroo Bonzai across the the Dimension sucks (really so bad it's enrapturing). Latest movie I saw that i thought was overhyped, Smokin Aces's. Wow, what a crapfest.

I enjoyed The Sum of All Fears. It was a pretty good "B" movie. I think the cast (other than Affleck - I don't care much for him at all) made it enjoyable, and the story line, although a bit silly at times, helped move it more in the direction of a comedy than a political thriller. The best part were the extra features on the DVD.

Default worst movie of my life time..!!

The worst movie ever i've watched in my life time is, "A BEAUTIFUL MIND". I've never understood the story line and the actor is a kind of psyche and he doesnt flirts a lot.

Overall its not a worth watching..

Thankgod!! I saw the movie online and not wasted a single penny on it..

I thought that movie was pretty well done. In fact, I would say it was stunning.
