Bottom 20 Worst Films of 2024

The only good thing to me was that it was short. But not short enough.

I’m going out on a limb that maybe it has finally come to end to claim that Hollywood is running out of ideas. Shocker, I know right. Bland, unimaginable, unfunny, and completely misses the mark of what the original has paved the way for generations to come. I am a die hard Mean Girls fan and I can see why some of the original cast didn’t want to come back because this is full on an embarrassment to a blank slate of pure of what where they thinking? But yeah let’s dig up Mean Girls because it had some type of rebirth with a stage play but still it is a true shame that nothing in here feels inspired. It is just so pointless. Plus I swear to God if they start singing again Imma pull a Doc Rivers and imma kill somebody. In fact this whole movie is the embodiment of that video. And if I see anyone say this is better than the original I’m pull that video up. Plus Moana is a terrible actor.

It is just, well no need to dwell on something this poorly made that is a prime example of what made by committee looks like. It couldn’t be more on paper of just how bad this is. Like sure another heist movie, sure another team that has forgettable characters, more and more of the same. Just even more bad.

It’s not that bad. Certainly they are worst movies on the list but this damn lame ass movie went on for far too long. And I like the essential set up of a road trip movie but with a serial killer in the 1960’s. Sure that works but holy crap this movie just sucks and not even interesting. It is bottom line lame. I mean I wish more was happening and I wasn’t surprised that this was put on the shelf until now. This movie was just not the genre blend that it think it is.

Ajax rampage down in the bunker where he just breaks some random woman’s neck was the funniest shit I have ever seen. He is so game here and I love it. The movie is bad, but man I had some beers in me, I was up in the clouds and was making fun of it the whole time. Sofia is fine but Bea Doona who I have always love kinda steals the show. The movie is straight up trash in the worst way possible but I mean Snyder is still the greatest living director we have working today. Seriously I mean that he is just that damn awesome that even him turning in two very dumb and stupid movies can still be raised above the ranks of other directors today. Hot take but he is pushing the boundaries more than someone like Scorsese or Spielberg or even Tarantino. He is a God amongst men.

Probably the worst action film this year. And I love a lot of the Netflix action selection they have. Even the Lost Bullet franchise is better than this. The gimmick or time aspect adds really nothing. Because sure it makes somewhat sense but the actual goal of making us feel tense or thrilled is just not there.

It’s not that bad so maybe it won’t stay in my bottom but what the hell is this. Jake Johnson could be a good director and I like him a lot as an actor but this movie just sucks. Like everything about just misses the mark. The acting is fine, the jokes are not even remotely funny, and the little suspense if I think the movie is going for is no way believable but also never comes across as even trying. So I’m like why even bother to have this murder plot. And when Becca from Pitch Perfect shows up it does drive some life into this movie but it still falls flat.

What a 3 not a 2 or even a 1. Yes the movie is not a flat out disaster but it is really bad. Still with two solid lead performances who not deliver good performances but along with stories and motivations that somewhat work for a film like this. Not saying it is groundbreaking but for the story it is trying to tell it works well. The rest of the movie along with the rest of the characters are just a far cry to being a movie that is actually good. Which this is barely tolerable. I mean the further it goes along the more ridiculous and less fun I was having. But can I say the same for the other films I rank lower. I mean some of those movies start off bad and never recover this at least showed somewhat of a promise.

Jesus Christ I’ll save all you the time, excon needs to take care of a little girl. Let me see, isn’t there a sci-fi movie that came out just last year that did this same plot. Or every movie that has this same plot. It ends all the same and everyone knows how all this plays out. But and this is a big but there are some really cool and I mean cool concepts here. I love the blend between street crime with the blend of superpowers. Holy shit that is why I really like that first movie. The first Code 8 to me is a solid 8/10 movie that stands on its premise and has some awesome action scenes. But this what even is this. No action scenes even match what the first one does and the street level threat that was so cool in the first one is just in the background here to move in the basic gruffed older guy who has to take care of small child. Like damn cmon really. I really hate this trend. It is like that is the only reason we can have any sympathy or empathy towards our main character. Some of the politics here work, Green Arrow wanting people with powers to protect their own against those who oppress them but taking advantage of the system that the law created. That is a cool and interesting concept. The movie does have that but wow does this go into certain directions that are just not needed. When Dune part 2 shows you have to do a part 2 this should be an example of how not to do a part 2.

Straight in after seeing some of what from the beginning I was thinking the whole time this will make my worst list. I like homeboy from Shadow and Bone but a full on obnoxious tale that I have seen over and over again. Full cliches and nothing to offer other than dialogue that is screaming at you. Like holy crap I had to turn down the volume by how loud each actor is screaming their lines like shut up. I feel like Arnold in Kindergarten Cop where he just screams at those kids. Except these aren’t kids these are grown ass adults and what a rip off of so many stuff. I toughed it out because well I’m snowed in but not really I got some work done. Not funny or educational, inspiring, or hell entertaining. This might not be the worst film but I had no intention of finding anything good about this movie.

It’s not god awful but I’m glad to hear seeing Amazon Prime get in there with some truly trash high profile movies. Well with notable actors in the starring position that they find themselves in. Which I’m glad to be seeing someone like MLK Jr at least get more roles but his bumbling doofus nice guy charm has been done to death and he has done this role before. As for Harley Quinn I mean it is always nice to see Penny in full force. And she is the lead and the star of the movie along with a producing credit so I can’t say this is her fault completely. But part True Lies and all the assassin and killer movies that try so hard to be different with sparks of comedy but instead it just falls flat. Which I’m fine with mediocre, actually no I do want something mind blowing screw it. I’ll say yes I want high art there I said it. I hate when people use that as a way to make some sound snobby but seriously work on the script and direction to make this better. The action is terrible the writing is not funny and it dives into the same I’m not going to betray my wife bull crap no matter how much the movie spend so much time with trying to make us believe that he will. But the two leads here are fine.

Gosh I wished I like this more. But I fell asleep. Now yes I did go back and rewatch this but man the damage was done. It offered nothing of entertainment value of watching these characters grow or anything like that. I saw this two days ago and nothing remained in my mind. Not one scene not one line nothing. Just plain and simple a boring and waste of time.

I’m just over these types of movies and more importantly I’m more over these actors specifically. I know based off their own acting abilities that these are not actors who are giving anything other than play yourself. And here is a big paycheck to do so. Cynical sure but man not one genuine performance from a lame sorry excuse for a chill out time in front of a camera. But I honestly expect nothing less from a movie like this. It isn’t downright terrible but not an ounce of entertainment peeked through this film. And far too long. There has to be good romantic movies out there for characters to route for. I’m not talking about romantic comedies I’m talking like straight up romantic movies where you are routing for the two people who the movie is guiding towards to be together have some actual weight to it. This movie is just not it. Who cares?

It’s a little better than I previously thought. I was like holy crap this is trash after first viewing but I mean I sat with it for like a day or so and thought, naw this is still trash. At least Cassie Lang is good here. But she is good in everything she is in. I love her in Freaky and she might be the best part in Abigail but these past movies have just been downright terrible for her. Flop after flop so at least she is delivering some charming performances in movies that she is way too good for.

Yeah it is bad. Holy crap this is was something I was routing for. I like most of it at the beginning. The setup at least was somewhat interesting and the story behind it does have some merit to be developed into an actual action fantasy adventure. But none of those come through in this story. It is not even that grand in scope for it to be this epic or trying to be. It is just bad on all accounts.

How can I put an Adam Sandler movie on the worst list and it not be one of his comedies he is use to doing. A true shame that a movie where Adam Sandler is trying his best to channel other actors who have done the space genre and it not be a home run it is sad day indeed. It could have played to Sandler’s strength where he is an actor who do both comedy and drama but I feel like if he had a writer and a director who can blend those best elements of him then this could have been great. I mean look at The Holdovers. A dramedy that succeeds in both the comedy and the drama. Now yes this movie would have to have a complete tone change but I really think the movie would have benefit for that mix of genre. Because what we got is the same bleak and tiresome space stories we have been getting. I wish Sandler didn’t have to go full drama here and played to his comedy or even to take light of even the most dire of situations. Because that loneliness and isolation can play up a big factor to him having to entertain this spider who may never had any interaction with another human. And some of that is there but damn is the relationship between the two is not working. Just a bad and boring movie that I wished I liked more.

Another boring excuse for actors to play themselves and get paid. Seriously I have seen Lucy Hale do this in 12 other movies. Same with Nat Wolf with the exception of something like Pig or Hereditary. So I mean it is harmless and some other viewers did point out some redeeming qualities. Because I did like them as a couple for the most part but nothing too mind blowing or rip your heart out and route for these two. There relationship is just lackluster and nothing more but nothing less.

It wasn’t that funny. I wished it had a little more bite to it. Almost like R rated movies have been real tamed lately. Joy Ride is the exception. But No Hard Feelings, Strays, and the countless of R rated comedies that can be found on Netflix. This is just bland. We truly have gone away from laugh riot film after film like we use to get. And yes I’m pretty sure R rated comedies have always had their bad streaks but man as of late has been a complete shame. This is no exception. Cena does at least deliver one of his best performances and he is killing it here. A full blown flight train going at 100 mph nonstop. This is not terrible but it is a downfall.

I’m okay with putting this on my worst of list. Well I mean I don’t mind seeing this movie on par with the other mediocre crap that is on this list. Because this is a bland and uneventful as everything else on this list. Some bodies exploding is fun but man is this extremely familiar to Ready or Not which is fine if that is your jam. But I for one just see movies like this as nothing more than a half baked idea with some cool shit but nothing mind blowing which I’m sorry but if you want me to go to the theater then yes that is a requirement. I know some might disagree but again with streaming delivering 8 hour plus actual movies then yeah I’m not going to sell out 15 bucks for the same movie I can watch at home. This is 2024 man do better.

I wish I liked this more. I remember this airing live and being glued but I’m be real this shit left my mind after I turned off the interview. I just don’t care about the royal family I don’t care what this family has done or whatever seriously all of them are fine well not fine but they can all do whatever they like because it really no skin off my ass. But I love Air and that was a story that fit better for me whereas if this it peaked right in the beginning. I actually really like Sex Education do all he can to get this picture and I really felt tense and thrilled while watching it. I was like damn okay this could be a cool movie. Sadly no. The pacing is just up and down like we know the beats of how this story went down I don’t need a play by play. It seems rather tiresome second act that goes directly into the third act which is what this whole movie was centered around. The interview. The sole reason to make this movie is to recreate that interview but sadly again it is the after that interest me. Shit just make the whole movie the interview but sadly the movie is not that well acted enough to warrant this recreation.

Season 4 is an embarrassment to this franchise. Every episode is atrocious to the point where I really wanted to turn it off. Predictable to every sense of the word and a major departure to what was already an amazing series. Maybe Nick has a point that nothing can save this season and that ending holy crap what a waste of time and talent. I do hate comparing this to season 1. Because I am one of those people who genuinely believes that the first season is some of the greatest pen to paper story ever to be made. It is a landmark and the reason why we have so many knock offs. I love Mare of Easton and I love a lot of the Fargo seasons which this also reminded me of. But holy crap this has nothing. I truly don’t think there is one redeeming aspect of this new season. 6 episodes is fine I think it did manage to tell the story it wanted to and it did get the point across the way it intended so I don’t feel rushed or need any more episodes because this is a complete show. It doesn’t feel like o man there is so much more left to be desired. It finishes and makes itself known that this is a complete story with major flaws that no bonus episodes or more time can save. It really was flawed from the word go.
