In an ill-advised romantic weepie, cross-generational lovers Richard Gere and Winona Ryder generated as much passion as two wet mops.
Battlefield Earth
Not for nothing did John Travolta's character wear nose plugs for most of this wretched sci-fi thriller. Easily the biggest stinker of the year.
Book of Shadows: Blair Witch 2
Sure, the first Blair Witch Project grossed more than $200 million worldwide, but it seems that a little more of that moolah could have been spent getting a better script for BW2 than this hackneyed tripe.
Gone in 60 Seconds
As popcorn flicks go, this car theft drama with Nicholas Cage was the stalest of offerings. Lots of chases and loud explosions, but so what?
Here on Earth
Teen dramas are often lame, but this rich boy-poor girl tearjerker starring Chris Klein and Leelee Sobieski was so mawkish it put even Love Story (1970) to shame.
Hollow Man
Brainless Man is more like it. In this dumb sci-fi horror film, all a mad scientist (Kevin Bacon) could think to do once he became invisible was to rape a neighbor lady and kill his colleagues.
Little Nicky
Hell doesn't come cheap. It cost nearly $80 million to make this laugh-free Adam Sandler comedy in which he played Satan's son. Isn't it time Sandler wised up and dropped his moron act?
Love's Labour's Lost
Kenneth Branagh tried to turn one of Shakespeare's lesser comedies into a Fred Astaire-Ginger Rogers film. A lousy idea made worse by the fact that no one in the cast could sing or dance.
The Next Best Thing
Madonna should just give up acting and stick with what she does adequately: sing. In this misbegotten comedy, her stilted attempt at playing straight woman to Rupert Everett's gay blade was plain painful.
Pay It Forward
Hate would be too weak a word to describe the emotions generated by this sanctimonious piece of Hollywood hogwash about a boy's plan to create a better world. Its ending is so egregiously hyperbolic we kept expecting stars Helen Hunt and Kevin Spacey to hold up their hands and say, "Just kidding," during the final scene.
Saved by the Bell Reunion
The hookups, the meltdowns, the memoires
The case reveals what was really going on what they think of each other now!
