Gobble, gobble, gobble. A nonsensical plot, wan acting and grown men dressed as teddy bears made us pine for the original Mrs. Peel.
As actors, Trey Parker and Matt Stone—better known as creators of the gross but beloved South Park—struck out in a sports comedy that should never have left the dugout.
As truly mindless action pictures go, this one with Chow Yun-Fat and onetime Oscar winner Mira Sorvino seemed particularly brainless, intent solely on seeing how many folks it could show getting splattered and wasted in slo-mo.
To find his dead wife, Robin Williams journeys to hell, which is exactly where viewers of this New Age claptrap found themselves. Great to look at, but dumb as dust.
Johnny Depp did a spot-on imitation of drug-gulping gonzo journalist Hunter S. Thompson, except you couldn't understand a word that he said throughout the entire movie. Not that you would have wanted to anyway. This one was a bad trip all the way.
Sadistic toy soldiers attempt to kill humans. If this putrid bit of celluloid was somebody's idea of an appropriate children's film, remind us never to hire 'em as babysitters.
This moronic thriller irrefutably proved that even really talented actors (in this case, Jessica Lange as a wacko mother-in-law and Gwyneth Paltrow as her cowering prey) can't save a truly bad picture.
It stank worse than a dead mouse stuck under the radiator.
Between this one and The Avengers, it was a rotten year for transferring '60s TV series to the big screen. We dare anyone to explain the plot toward the end of this mess. Danger, Will Robinson, indeed.
Edward Norton was impressive, but in providing a lengthy platform for exactly the racist rhetoric and theories it claimed to abhor, this message picture about contemporary neo-Nazism sent out badly mixed messages. No wonder director Tony Kaye, who had a public spat with the studio over the final version of the movie, wanted his name removed.
>[X]OH, OUR ACHING SEATS It may have worked for Titanic, but there was no need for so many movies, including Beloved, Meet Joe Black and The Horse Whisperer, to drag on for close to three hours.
[X]TALK ABOUT WOODEN The year's most annoying performance was Kenneth Branagh doing his Woody Allen imitation, verbal tics intact, in Allen's Celebrity.
