17 Films That Had Us With Our Heads In Our Hands Saying "This Is So Stupid"
Recently, u/WonderfulParticular1 asked r/moviecritic for movies that made them think "Jesus. This is so damn stupid." Here are some of the top responses: Paramount Pictures 1. Madame Web Sony Pictures Releasing "The villain dialogue alone was awful." – fethers42 "I had the unfortunate pleasure of watching this movie, not once, not twice, but thrice. And let me tell you, it does get worse with extra viewings." – SnooBeans5652 2. Holmes and Watson Sony Pictures Releasing "Such a waste of time, money, effort, and talent." – DrHemmington "I hate that I can't remember where I read this review, but someone said the movie was like one of those stories where someone is granted wishes that all have a twist, so the person wishes for their deceased loved one to be alive again, only to have them come back as an undead monster. Essentially, we buried Step Brothers at the pet cemetery hoping to get another Will Ferrell /John C. Riley buddy comedy, but got Holmes and Watson instead." – Rjsmith5 3. Rebel Moon Netflix "Man it's such a mess of a movie, shit just appears on screen for two minutes and are never talked about before or after that moment." – Half-White_Moustache 4. Jurassic World Universal Pictures "The end when the T-Rex and Raptor nod to each other in mutual respect for their teamwork when taking down the supervillain. I couldn't believe what I was seeing. I honestly was expecting the Raptor to give a thumbs up followed by a freeze frame ending. It was that stupid." – Kubrickwon 5. Meg 2: The Trench Warner Bros. Pictures "When Statham swims at the very bottom of the ocean instead of being smashed into boiling paste." – Deckard2022 6. Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures "Somehow Palpatine returned..." – riot_ir "To give an idea of how much we hate this movie in our household, a few years ago our 13 year old German shepherd became gravely ill in a matter of days. It was that clear 'end of life' type of thing. We made the call to Lap of Love, which provides home euthanasia, and they were coming the next day. My wife and I couldn't sleep at all knowing what tomorrow would bring. To pass the time, we put on some movies. But we didn't want to watch movies that we liked in fears of associating the death of our dog. Instead, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and Indiana Jones: Kingdom of the Crystal Skull were our movies of choice. Being in the category of 'movies you will watch knowing your going to put your dog down the next day' is a special kind of awful." – AkursedX 7. The Dark Tower Sony Pictures Releasing "I LOVE Idris Elba, but I absolutely refuse to watch that abomination of a movie. Just the previews alone were enough to make my eye twitch." – QualityParticular739 "Fuckin' A. That movie should have been as dope as the source material; instead it was worse than a turd in the swimming pool." – dvadersfist 8. 50 Shades of Grey Universal Pictures "It was one of the least sexy movies I can remember watching. About as hot as a Minions movie." – asdf072 9. Spectre Sony Pictures Releasing 10. The Happening 20th Century Studios "I remember we were about ten minutes in with my friend and her boyfriend (he had seen it before), and I made a joke about the twist. He told me I was correct and I was like, 'That is so fucking stupid!' We stopped it and watched Sideways instead." – fierce_history 11. Independence Day: Resurgence 20th Century Studios "Oh god I forgot about this movie! I think my brain tried to pretend it never happened. I was so excited for nothing!" – rubber_padded_spoon "That movie is so bad that it makes me mad at the hate Ghostbusters (2016) got the same year. I'd watch Ghostbusters five times before rewatching that trash pile. And I'm not saying Ghostbusters was any good... Independence Day 2 just sucked that much." – Disgod 12. The Dead Don't Die Universal Pictures "Should have been a slam dunk. Comedy parody of a zombie movie starring Adam Driver and Bill Murray? Fantastic supporting cast with Tilda Swinton, Danny Glover, Steve Buscemi, Chloe Sevigny? Sounds like something I'd want injected directly into my veins. I legit watched the whole thing thinking surely, SURELY at some point, something interesting or entertaining must happen. Just one glimmer, one scene that indicates a human being actually made this thing with the intention to engage an audience. Imagine my surprise." 13. Gladiator II Paramount Pictures "There were sharks." – Flatonr "It didn't need a sequel, but I was hopeful it was going to be decent. The writing was lazy and the sharks were so unnecessary. They could've done a lot with it, but it was just a big budget cash grab instead." – SeeYouOn16 14. 2012 Sony Pictures Releasing "That's when stupid peaked." – petziii "That movie really just seemed to be an excuse for John Cusack to ramp over various things in different vehicles. Limos, RVs, planes, boats." – jbmc00 15. Thor: Love and Thunder Walt Disney Studios Motion Pictures "I was on the edge of leaving like 10 times throughout the movie." – Intelligent_Cow_9334 "Bale doesn't get to play the bad guy often, and when he does... it's incredible. I loved him in this movie so much, but I can't force myself to slog through the rest of it for his scenes to do a second viewing." – _Teksho_ 16. Jack & Jill Sony Pictures Releasing 17. Buried Warner Bros. Pictures "The whole way through I would have a fit whenever Ryan Reynolds used his lighter (burning precious oxygen) to see the screen of his phone. His backlit phone, which, after being in pitch darkness, would have blinded any standards human being. I just completely lost my mind every time, I don't remember any details of the movie and I didn't finish it."

"I Thought It Would Never End": 23 People Who Lost A Year Of Their Lives After Watching A Very, Very, Very Long Movie Where The Director Forgot How To Edit
Sometimes, a long, well-edited movie can really comfort the soul. On the other hand, a horrible long movie can literally feel like it sucked your soul right out of you. So when Reddit user Plus-Statistician80 asked: "What movie made you say, 'Holy shit, there is still an hour left?'" over 10,000 people shared their opinions, and boy, they did not hold back. Here's what they said below: 1."I remember having the DVD copy of Pearl Harbor that came in two discs, and when the first disc ended, I thought, 'That's a strange way to end a movie,' and then I got the 'insert disc two' message, and I was like 'What the fuck?'" 2."Emilia Pérez. It's very long and kept going." 3."Gangs of New York on cable TV, so with the commercial breaks, it was five goddamn hours long." 4."A friend came to the theatre for the first The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring. He knew nothing about it and was just coming because everyone was going, and it was hyped up. The movie finished with Frodo and Sam looking at Mt. Doom, and he said, 'That's how it ends?! That's stupid.' We informed him that it's a trilogy. And he said, 'I have to watch two more of these fucking things now?!'" 5."Sorry, Nolan, I like your stuff... but Oppenheimer... I don't really dislike the movie, but damn, it was drawn out too long." 6."Meg 2: The Trench. I was sure I was at the end of the third act, but somehow, there was another movie left." 7."Australia (2008). They spend two hours riding horses across the outback, then they get to town, and it turns into an hour-long combat movie. Don't watch it." 8."The Irishman." 9."Avatar: The Way of Water was kinda like that, even though I knew it was long." 10."The remake of King Kong. I swear, they spent an hour just talking on that damn boat." 11."Not exactly an hour, but seeing Wicked Part 1 and having to pee really badly during the "Defying Gravity" escape sequence was the longest goddamn 45 minutes of my life." 12."All of the Hobbit movies." 13."Killers of the Flower Moon. I'm sorry!" 14."My boys wanted to go see Dune: Part Two with me, and my daughter, who was considerably younger, wanted to go as well. About halfway through the flick, she had been in a quasi-fetal position in her chair for most of the movie. She looked up at me and said, 'It feels like we've been here for a DAY already.'" 15."The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King has like seven final scenes." 16."The Wolf of Wall Street. Hit a point where I was sure it was wrapping up, glanced at my phone, and went, 'You've got to be kidding me.' Still loved every minute though, even if my drink was empty and my legs were cramping." 17."Wonder Woman 1984." 18."Gone With the Wind. My college girlfriend made me watch it with her. I had no idea that you had to wait flipping hours for the famous 'Frankly, Scarlet' line." 19."I fell asleep twice trying to watch Zack Snyder's Justice League at about the two-hour mark, where Wonder Woman meets Cyborg in the street. The movie hasn't really even begun at this point, and there are two more hours to go." 20."Les Misérables. I saw the movie in theaters with my friend, who absolutely loves the play. I thought the movie was coming to an end and thought, 'Oh, thank God.' My friend sighed emotionally and said, 'Ah, the intermission!' I nearly cried." 21."The Hunger Games: The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. Man, that last half felt almost like a different movie." 22."A.I. Artificial Intelligence had at least four places where I was like, 'OK, it's going to end here,' and it just kept going. I remember really having to use the bathroom in the theater but having no idea how much time was left." 23."Tenet. I couldn't understand anything anyone was saying, and the plot itself was too convoluted. There were some good parts, but it should have been way shorter." Are there any movies you watched that made you think, "There's still an hour left???" Tell us what movies and why in the comments below.
