Films you are glad you've never seen

[Sh4rkyBloke]

Isn't it? Not a bad film but just a very very ordinary one. It must have been a bad year for films is all I can figure.

Has to be one of the strangest 'endings' too. In my book and ending actually involves some form of 'ending' rather than simply (effectively) cutting the film off at the end of a rather bizarre sentence...

Highly overrated!

Dude, where's my car?

Big Lebowski? ... a huge let down for me. I think it was the Cohen Brothers trying to do Tarantino... or something. Suffice to say, it's a movie I could have done without seeing.

Mamma Mia. Mark Kermode, who I generally trust as a reviewer, said it was so bad it was good. But I really don't want to put myself through it.

For me it would be Thelma and Louise. [edit] Plus the fact that the ending has been given away so often, I can't see the point of watching it anyway!

I think that is one of those endings that doesn't matter if you see it coming. If anything it ratchets up the tension knowing how it will all end. I think it is a good film, but not one I necessarily like. I find the rape in it quite difficult.

Titanic
Mama Mia
High School Musical
The last Indiana Jones film
Chariots of Fire

 

[Dayvo]

Titantic (and any film with Leonardo whatsit)
The Star War films
Any fim with Tom Cruise in it
"------"---- Jim Carey

But I take exception to yello's choice!

Big Lebowski?

Until very recently I was the only person I'd come across who'd never seen a single Star Wars movie. Having now seen the first, I'm glad I haven't seen any of the others. Haven't seen any of the super-hero ones either, Hulk, Spidreman or any Supermans - have no desire to. I did see one of the Star Trek ones - it had whales in, rather to my surprise. But again, nothing to persuade me that time spent watching any of the others would not have been time wasted.

 

[Over The Hill]

Anything with Liz Hurley in it. I loved the first Austin Powers film, but, Jeez, that woman ruined it for me whenever she was on screen.

How can you say that!!
It was the peak of her acting career!!

 

[Blue Manc]

Any of that Lord of the Rings tosh
Anything written by Richard Curtis
Anything directed by Baz Luhrman
Any of the Die Hard films

Shouldn't that be 'peaks'?

I've seen almost all of the films mentioned above, and, deer Cycle Chatters, your judgement is smack on the money. From now on, I'm going to seek clearance from these parts before going to the cinema

(exept for Moulin Rouge, which is a masterpiece)

I have to say he was excellent in Blood Diamond - I'd definitely recommend that film!

I haven't seen Star Wars either, but I'm no one's wife!
