What is your all time biggest dud movie. You know the one that disappointed you the most or that you just hated.
For me it was Titanic.

The English Patient, was the first one I thought of. It was a struggle for me to get through it.

Congo. My DH and I always refer back to that when the subject of awful movies comes up.
I will agree with The English Patient too. So bad

Most recently Mockingjay Pt 2. It was awful, I remembered the book being slow, but thought they would have overcome that in the movie. My best friend fell asleep.

Always funny to see what others hated. I saw The English Patient twice in the theater and loved it. I fell in love with Ralph Fiennes in that movie.
My biggest disappointment was High Fidelity with John Cusack. A lot of people loved that movie, but it just completely annoyed me.

The Lovely Bones.
The book is easily one of my top 25 books of all time and I was over the moon excited about the movie. When I found out that Peter Jackson was going to direct it I was disappointed but figured he couldn't screw it up that bad... I was wrong. The movie was a sh!t-show from beginning to end and I left there demanding my money back (not really, but theoretically). I'm still bitter about it. Clearly....

Most recently..."My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2"! I loved the first one and while I wasn't expecting the 2nd one to be as good I didn't think it would be as awful as it was!! I had to make myself watch the entire thing and then only because of John Corbett.

Does 1925’s Battleship Potemkin that I had to watch for my undergrad film class count? If it doesn't, then I would have to say the array of Marvel and DC Comics superhero movies I've seen over the years with DH and DS. It's hard to find shared activities to do, and so I go, mainly to eat popcorn and ogle Thor, if I am so lucky to be seeing one of the ones he's in. I abhor the stupid, mindless, inane, stupefying and witless theory underpinning all these movies and it kinda makes me want to cry when I think about all the time I've wasted watching people beat on other people, shoot at other people, and blow up shit.

DH loves the Transformers movies. Drives me nuts. He could watch them over and over again. I try to be a good sport, but I just can't.
And you know I hated what they did to My Sister's Keeper. They totally ruined that book.

Sadly, My Big Fat Greek Wedding 2. I LOVE the first movie but struggled so much with the second one.

The big night
I have read so much about this movie, but it only has one good scene.
The big casserole thing is disgusting.
I am sad because my son searched it high and low and bought me a copy.

Boyhood.
Seriously the biggest waste of time for DH and I. So bad it is now our reference point for movies. As in, "it wasn't the best but it wasn't Boyhood".

Not sure if this is my all time worst movie, but we saw Finding Dory at the weekend and it was awful, boring, never ending with zero humor.
