Movies And Music I Hate With A Passion

A Listmania! list by BS on parade
 
The Fifth Element [DVD] [1997]
1.  The Fifth Element [DVD] [1997] DVD ~ Bruce Willis
The list author says:
  "Oddly oppressive over stylized visuals get to the point were it becomes claustrophobic in its effect. Story terrible and the humour childishly painful. Worst movie ever!"
£4.37   Used & New from: £0.44
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (81 customer reviews) | 4 customer discussions

Supernova [DVD] [2000]
2.  Supernova [DVD] [2000] DVD ~ James Spader
The list author says:
  "This movie's been made MUCH better as Event Horizon. Same set up, plot, and better direction. At least you can see it unlike this murky movie hiding behind a black screen -I can't see it it's so dark."
£3.22   Used & New from: £0.57
3.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (16 customer reviews)

Exorcist 2 - the Heretic [DVD]
3.  Exorcist 2 - the Heretic [DVD] DVD ~ Richard Burton
The list author says:
  "Looks hideous with its gaudy production design & the script is full of odd and silly concepts. Dialogue about philosophy is deeply pretentious. Dreary awful film from start to finish."
Used & New from: £1.98
2.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (15 customer reviews)

Freddy Vs Jason [DVD] [2003]
4.  Freddy Vs Jason [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Robert Englund
The list author says:
  "Way too fast. Dense jungle of back-stories that's almost impossible to digest. Actors don't have enough time to react to anything that happens so everything feels weird & stagey."
£2.99   Used & New from: £0.23
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (69 customer reviews) | 4 customer discussions

The Long Goodbye [DVD] (1973)
5.  The Long Goodbye [DVD] (1973) DVD ~ Elliott Gould
The list author says:
  "Altman can't tell a simple story. Anytime he's only got 1 or 2 storylines his films fail. This is typical of how slow, lumpy & uninteresting a director he can be. He needs dense storylines."
£5.00   Used & New from: £2.81
3.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (22 customer reviews)

Tales of a Librarian: A Tori Amos Collection
6.  Tales of a Librarian: A Tori Amos Collection by Tori Amos
The list author says:
  "Silent All These Years & Cornflake Girl are great songs. The rest are the very worst examples of singer-songwriter self-indulgence. Stop start, wispy fragile music & obtusely flowery lyrics. Annoying."
£5.99   Used & New from: £0.26
4.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (32 customer reviews)

A History Of Violence [DVD]
7.  A History Of Violence [DVD] DVD ~ Viggo Mortensen
The list author says:
  "It's OK. Just can't understand how pretentious critics can read so much meaning into so little. Super simple A - B - C story with paddling pool depths of meaning. At the end I asked, "Is that it?""
£3.97   Used & New from: £0.01
3.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (113 customer reviews) | 3 customer discussions

Eyes Wide Shut [DVD] [1999]
8.  Eyes Wide Shut [DVD] [1999] DVD ~ Tom Cruise
The list author says:
  "You don't pray for the movie to end, you pray for the current scene to end it's that long & boring. Slight, banal, TV movie 40 min story inflated to 153 mins.Critics wouldn't praise if not by Kubrick!"
£6.37   Used & New from: £1.78
3.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (93 customer reviews) | 2 customer discussions

Barry Lyndon [1975] [DVD]
9.  Barry Lyndon [1975] [DVD] DVD ~ Ryan O'Neal
The list author says:
  "3 boring hours crawl by. Even when it has interesting incidents it bores because of Kubrick's distant, stiff camera work. The period setting is dull. War & duels have never been so boring."
£5.99   Used & New from: £2.96
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (49 customer reviews)

Vivian
10.  Vivian by Vivian Green
The list author says:
  "Bad, bland R'n'B. Weird egotistical track at the end. Friends, family & crew in interviews praise her brilliance over a jazz vamp Muzak background! Painfully awful."
Used & New from: £1.99
4.0 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (1 customer review)

Body Language
11.  Body Language by Kylie Minogue
The list author says:
  "Pop albums in general. Always have 2 or 3 great singles & the rest are lazy, under written "songs". Can anyone listen to a pop album from start to finish more than twice? Hope iTunes kills them all."
£4.19   Used & New from: £0.01
3.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (118 customer reviews)

28 Days Later ... [DVD] [2002]
12.  28 Days Later ... [DVD] [2002] DVD ~ Cillian Murphy
The list author says:
  "The worst script ever, the writer is incompetent. Director is dreadful & has no idea how to film scares, which is kind of important with a horror film. Not one good thing about this dogs breakfast."
£3.24   Used & New from: £0.01
3.6 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (213 customer reviews)

Cabin Fever [DVD] [2003]
13.  Cabin Fever [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Jordan Ladd
The list author says:
  "A real rarity - a badly structured film. Nothing builds & adds up in a clear coherent way. Supposed to be an isolated cabin but film has a cast bigger than Ben Hur. Some funny dialogue though."
£3.64   Used & New from: £0.01
2.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (87 customer reviews)

Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind [DVD] [2003]
14.  Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Drew Barrymore
The list author says:
  "I hate the lead actor/character(?) with a passion that surprises me. Fake, contrived, boring & weirdly directed. They got so caught up in making it they forgot to bring the drama to the set with them."
£7.99   Used & New from: £0.19
3.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (15 customer reviews)

The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (2 Disc Edition) [DVD] [2005]
15.  The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy (2 Disc Edition) [DVD] [2005] DVD ~ Martin Freeman|Mos Def|Sam Rockwell
The list author says:
  "Film's OK but TV & book versions much better. Hate over-rated Bill Nighy. He had all the best lines & he slaughtered them all with his befuddled hippie interpretation of the character."
£12.99   Used & New from: £0.41
2.8 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (131 customer reviews)

Punch-Drunk Love [DVD] [2010]
16.  Punch-Drunk Love [DVD] [2010] DVD ~ Adam Sandler
The list author says:
  "Couldn't stand its slow, subdued, near surreal, meticulously & fussily controlled style. And practically no dialogue. This film was the cinematic equivalent of a slow elevator ride into hell."
Used & New from: £1.89
3.3 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (49 customer reviews)

The Thin Red Line [1999] [DVD]
17.  The Thin Red Line [1999] [DVD] DVD ~ Sean Penn
The list author says:
  "Starts with a long discussion about philosophy. Gave up right there & then before I slipped into a coma. Too pretentious & self important to be taken seriously. Badlands is also a dull over-rated film"
£3.76   Used & New from: £0.24
3.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (98 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Ocean's Twelve [DVD] [2004]
18.  Ocean's Twelve [DVD] [2004] DVD ~ George Clooney
The list author says:
  "Director said that 11 was the toughest thing he's made because it was so insubstantial. 12 must have sent him loopy as there isn't even characters or a story.Almost avant garde in its random emptiness"
£3.97   Used & New from: £0.01
2.1 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (73 customer reviews)

Lost In Translation [DVD] [2004]
19.  Lost In Translation [DVD] [2004] DVD ~ Bill Murray
The list author says:
  "Exciting new director? Emperor's new clothes! Can't tell a story so all her films become vapid mood pieces. Slow, pointless & dull. She should be making video installations for art galleries!"
£3.39   Used & New from: £0.01
3.5 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (269 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion

Dancing Down the Stony Road
20.  Dancing Down the Stony Road by Chris Rea
The list author says:
  "Dullest album he's released & with Rea's track record that's saying something. Lyrics are too vague (where are the stories?) & musically it plods."
Used & New from: £0.95
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (23 customer reviews)

Double Jeopardy (DVD) [2000]
21.  Double Jeopardy (DVD) [2000] DVD ~ Tommy Lee Jones
The list author says:
  "Most disappointing film I've ever seen. Great powerful concept rendered toothless by sanitised, bland treatment. Needed to embrace the story's moral darkness but didn't. Ending is a giant cop out."
£7.03   Used & New from: £0.76
3.7 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (21 customer reviews)

It
22.  It by Stephen King
The list author says:
  "Why is King one of the worst writers? Because he keeps writing the same over long ponderous book. Some details change, but not much else. Lazy bad writing & half ar**d supernatural imagination."
Used & New from: £1.79

Oldboy [DVD] [2003]
23.  Oldboy [DVD] [2003] DVD ~ Choi Min-Sik
The list author says:
  "Made by the world's most immature,sadistic 13 year-old.It's attitude to sex & violence is embarrassing.Also fake contrived drama/emotions (see the end barking dog scene to see an idiots idea of drama)"
£11.00   Used & New from: £1.11
4.4 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (114 customer reviews)

The Double Life of Veronique [DVD]
24.  The Double Life of Veronique [DVD] 
The list author says:
  "What it has for a story is a bunch of wispy, pointless incidences that fail to make any impact separately or when combined with the rest of the "narrative". A true post-content movie. Awful art house."
£8.27   Used & New from: £6.42
4.2 out of 5 stars  See all reviews (29 customer reviews) | 1 customer discussion
