Movies that were supposed to be good, but just made you ask, "So what?"

Red Dawn was like that for me. A big "Huh?"

Is this only for neocons or what?

Just about any film from Stone or Moore.

Okay, It's made up now.
Rambo: First Blood Part 2- what a mess. Like there would actually be POW's held for no reason for THAT long...what a fantasy. At least Red Dawn was put out by a good writer/director, Rambo was a slap in the face to the memory of the actually very good First Blood.

The worst ever has got to be "Starship Troopers". So much possibility of an interesting, thought-provoking, intelligent movie, and it turned out a cheesy comic book (and that's an insult to comic books everywhere). It didn't make me go "Meh", it made me

"Keep the Shiny side up"

Good movies that sucked:

1. The Marine
2. The Skorpion King
3. Cornholers 12 (The one with PirateNews.)
4. Starship Troopers
5. Star Trek V
6. Star Trek Insurrection
7. Star Trek Nemesis
8. Harry Potter and the Insert Movie Title Here
9. Little Miss Sunshine (because she didn't win the fracking contest...)


...and so on.

edited to add: 10. BATTLEFIELD EARTH

It's like the FX took over the script (more like, threw it out, actually).
It started out interesting....

wow,

I love Starship Troopers. The whole thing was so satyrical...

kind of like the war on terror.

when they pulled the big bug out at the end and declared that it was afraid....absolutely classic
