WORST MOVIE you have ever seen

Warning....avoid the movie "Buried" w/ Ryan Reynolds, he is literally the only actor in the movie, besides the voices on the other end of the cell phone and the whole movie takes place in a wooden coffin!

Should have known it was going to stink when one of the previews was for the movie "Bug", with Ashley Judd, who I really like, but thought that movie was horrid.

I always wonder why good actors decide to make bba movies.

Any other movies that I should avoid??? Thankfully, I used redbox for this movie and it only cost me a buck. However, I really wish I had the few hours back to do something more productive, ha!

Kramer vs Kramer is near the top of the list.

Fried Green Tomatos was awful - but it was the only movie showing on the international flight I was on.

Actually, any movie targeted at females (did I say that politically correctly or what!) I don't care for or usually, can't stand.

Superman 2 was pretty awful also and it played on two international flights I was on.

I thought 2001 a Space Odyssey was lousy - it was way too slow for me - it was just too boring.

Oh. Wow. I could list 100 but I'll start with two. "The Pebble and the Penguin" and "Bicentennial Man".

I Love You, Philip Morris. I just saw it in theaters a few weeks ago with a friend and now I am afraid to trust her any time she suggests I might like a movie she wants to see.

"P.S. I Love You" with Hillary Swank. I love her in movies but this one made me want to gag. Throughout the entire movie I suffered from second hand embarrassment for everyone involved in it .

Visconti's The Damned.

His Death in Venice wasn't any better - more boring less icky.

Walkabout. Just reading the quotes from IMDB reminds me how much I loathed it.

Those are the worst that I actually saw to the end in a theater. My SIL gave us Return of the Killer Tomatoes and we never finished it.

"What's Up Doc," followed by "Chicago" or "Moulin Rouge."

I don't know if I loved or hated the ending of buried.
but I agree, they could have went out a bit more and done something other than a coffin scene for 2 hours straight

H and I both hated Fargo. We saw it with friends and they also thought it was terrible.

Pink Flamingos. Saw it in college at the free weekend movie. Still get nauseous thinking about it.

I loved Kramer vs Kramer, but never understood Pulp Fiction.
