The fountain - agreed. There's no plot
Inception - again no plot. People laud it but I don't recall an ending nor it making sense. It's just different
What women want - u can hear a pin drop
Brave and braveheart - epic snoozefests
Infernal affairs - yuck
Diving bell and the butterfly - these are exciting if u are interested in lab experiments and replication

I'm sure there are alot more. You don't need to pay me but I'd appreciate if a keyword could jog my memory.

Napoleon dynamite - nerd may be cool but that was terrible
and pirates of the carribean - this might be personal taste but it wasn't interesting.

The only thing good about the fountain was the avendesora. Too bad it wasn't utilized enough..
I don't know about the pirates movies. I saw one of it and it sucked.. That was enough lol

Was looper like inception? I didn't catch shutter island either.. Actually I think the "dream within a dream" idea was good but they didnt know how to tie it up, that was the sad part..

Shutter island kind of reminds of the beach.. By Leonardo too

Oh Elizabethtown was extremely bad - nothing original
500 days of summer - dry broken record
Sunshine for the spotless mind - no connect
I heart huckabees was terrible

I didnt catch shutter island though I heard people saying it was good back then. The island setting reminded me of 'The beach' which was very disturbing so I gave it a miss 😛
Oh u liked huckabees. Fwiw I didn't know what it was about so it's probably just me 😉

Everything is illuminated - I expected illumination but nothing was 😢

ill throw out an obvious one

Batman and Robin 1997

One bad one liner after another "Lets kick some ICE!". Nipple suits didn't workout to well either

I could only make it through an hour of it. I would watch it again for some hefty sacks of money

Joel Schumacher did apologize for the movie later

Kill Bill

style over content, with a boring script about some chick wiggling her toes for 20 minutes before going off on some revenge spree I couldn't care less about. Really, they needed 3 epic-lenght movies for that? Jesus f*cking Christ.

Terrible, terrible filmmaking.

Hangover 2. I wanted to scrub my eyes out with soap and water AND wanted my 2 hours back. And my money. To this day I die a little inside everytime I think of all those lost hopes and dreams that 11.50 dollars and 2 hours I wasted on it could have bought me. 😢

Zero Dark Thirty

One of the most offensive propaganda jingoistic movie after 300. I was almost lost my mind after watching this crap, then mind was blown up to pieces after I heard for (the best picture nomination).

Save your time/money and stay away from this crap.

Red Dawn the 2012 remake

hollywood's desperate attempt to make more money, they didn't get my money, i just borrowed it.

im at a lack of words to describe it so i will use these quote

"Red Dawn suffers from a number of serious problems. The first, and most obvious, is that this is mini-series material compressed into a 95-minute movie. "

and

"If your film choices are dictated by what is in the $ 2 pile at Blockbuster, I imagine this kind of easily justified pro-war sentiment would go down a treat, especially with a bottle of cheap whiskey. "

Thanks for the warning. The fact that I contributed to them making a 3rd one overwhelms me with shame. 😢

Battlefield Earth

i could only do 30 minutes of the movie. if i watched any further i would of probably had to go to the ER.

Battlefield confusion, how come a person that can tame and ride horses, acts like a primitive animal in front of john travolta's character
