Ralph Breaks the Internet [2018]

Ralph Breaks the Internet
Phil Johnston / Rich Moore

Pompeii [2014]

Pompeii
Paul W. S. Anderson
2/8

I’ve made this mistake before. One of these years I have to learn that Paul W. S. Anderson is not Paul Thomas Anderson.

Ant-Man and the Wasp [2018]

Ant-Man and the Wasp
Peyton Reed
4.5/6

Now that was dumb!

Immortals [2011]

Immortals
Tarsem Singh
2/5

+: Mickey Rourke on form and The Good Hurt.

-: Too much shouting. Not enough Hurt.

American Honey [2016]

American Honey
Andrea Arnold
3/5

I’d probably love it if I were seventeen.

Blackmail [1929]

Blackmail
Alfred Hitchcock
?/?

I didn’t give up the year of film, but Apex Legends suddenly came out. Commence catchup!

Knockaround Guys [2001]

Knockaround Guys
Brian Koppelman / David Levien
3/6

Run of the mill wise guys faire featuring one of the worst actors in human history, Seth Green, who is at least killed towards the end. Still watchable, though.

Clash of the Titan [2010]

Clash of the Titans
Louis Leterrier
2/8

Better effects, fewer redeeming bits, more arduous action sequences. Like it’s in a hurry to reach the next CGI fight.

Not as bad as The Mummy.

Clash of the Titans [1981]

Clash of the Titans
Desmond Davis
3/8

I declare this Bad Movie Weekend 2019.

He even talks a bit like R2-D2.

Boobage!

Airplane vs. Volcano [2014]

Airplane vs. Volcano
The Kondelik Brothers
2/6

Also a very stupid movie that gets everything wrong, but this one isn’t being a dick about it.
