Movies I Avoid Like the Plague!!
Now there are many films on this list that have won awards
and accolades and some that should have never received the
"blue light". They just do not appeal to me on many levels.
Some are too convoluted, some are just too long and some
just boring and others just BAD and some that are all those 4 things.

- DirectorStanley KubrickStarsKeir DulleaGary LockwoodWilliam SylvesterAfter uncovering a mysterious artifact buried beneath the Lunar surface, a spacecraft is sent to Jupiter to find its origins: a spacecraft manned by two men and the supercomputer HAL 9000.Monkeys, moving rocks, bedrooms, it's just all too convoluted
for me. - DirectorDavid LynchStarsNaomi WattsLaura HarringJustin TherouxAfter a car wreck on Mulholland Drive renders a woman amnesiac, she and a Hollywood-hopeful search for clues and answers across Los Angeles in a twisting venture beyond dreams and reality.Is she alive or dead, alive or dead, alive or dead, by the end

A group of people must stop them before they head for the beach. Will they make it?Absolutely one of the worse shark movies ever!!
- DirectorRichard KellyStarsJake GyllenhaalJena MaloneMary McDonnellAfter narrowly escaping a bizarre accident, a troubled teenager is plagued by visions of a man in a large rabbit suit who manipulates him to commit a series of crimes.Ugly rabbits, falling airplane engines and weird old ladies. I'm a
reasonably intelligent person but could not make heads or tails
out of this one and I even watched it more than once!! - DirectorPeter HyamsStarsRoy ScheiderJohn LithgowHelen MirrenA joint USA-Soviet expedition is sent to Jupiter to learn exactly what happened to the "Discovery" and its H.A.L. 9000 computer.More of the same as 2001. Not impressed.
- DirectorRobert WiseStarsWilliam ShatnerLeonard NimoyDeForest KelleyWhen an alien spacecraft of enormous power is spotted approaching Earth, Admiral James T. Kirk resumes command of the overhauled USS Enterprise in order to intercept it.Over-long and over blown.
- DirectorJohn HillcoatStarsViggo MortensenCharlize TheronKodi Smit-McPheeIn a dangerous post-apocalyptic world, an ailing father defends his son as they slowly travel to the sea.Just depressing!!
- DirectorChristopher NolanStarsLeonardo DiCaprioJoseph Gordon-LevittElliot PageA thief who steals corporate secrets through the use of dream-sharing technology is given the inverse task of planting an idea into the mind of a C.E.O., but his tragic past may doom the project and his team to disaster.A dream within a dream within a dream, within a dream. It was
a nightmare for me! - DirectorMichael CiminoStarsRobert De NiroChristopher WalkenJohn CazaleAn in-depth examination of the ways in which the Vietnam War impacts and disrupts the lives of several friends in a small steel mill town in Pennsylvania.Longest film wedding in history. Just watch the second half.
- DirectorFrancis Ford CoppolaStarsMartin SheenMarlon BrandoRobert DuvallA U.S. Army officer serving in Vietnam is tasked with assassinating a renegade Special Forces Colonel who sees himself as a god.The editor must have been on vacation! Too long and too confusing!
- DirectorPaul Thomas AndersonStarsDaniel Day-LewisPaul DanoCiarán HindsA story of family, religion, hatred, oil and madness, focusing on a turn-of-the-century prospector in the early days of the business.What did they do to Daniel Day Lewis's face???
I didn't have a clue what this film was about. Too dark,
depressing, ugly scenery is not for me. Not entertainment. - DirectorJoseph L. MankiewiczRouben MamoulianStarsElizabeth TaylorRichard BurtonRex HarrisonQueen Cleopatra VII of Egypt experiences both triumph and tragedy as she attempts to resist the imperial ambitions of Rome.Too long opus on the love affair of Antony and Cleopatra.
Another film that cried out for some serious editing. Dragged
in many parts making you just wishing for the arrival of
the asp!
