  1. The "special effects" employed to have the animals' mouths form words might have been state-of-the-art 20 years ago, but they're outdated today, and the gorilla looks like a guy in the monkey suit that was abandoned after the 1976 version of "King Kong." I guess CGI was too sophisticated for the technical crew.
  2. So bad that it will annoy and/or bore those who have minimal standards and a high tolerance for sewage.
  5. --- Ho, ho, ho - the joke's on anyone who pays to see this.
  8. Two agonizing hours of lifeless, mind-numbing hogwash.
  9. Even Cowgirls is as close to an unwatchable film as there is available at this time in the theaters.
  10. Boring and repetitive.
  12. Dirty Deeds boasts a passably entertaining idea that is butchered in the telling.
  15. When it comes to comedy, Deck the Halls is remarkably tedious.
  16. This a neutered Garfield, one part tomcat and three parts pussy, recognizable only by his orange coat and love of lasagna. This feline's got a serious case of mange.
  17. Beverly Hills Ninja is essentially a one-joke film.
  18. It's astounding how a movie this long could accomplish so little.
  22. A catastrophe. This motion picture is an embarrassment to all involved.
  25. It's not scary, it's not chilling, and it's not interesting.
  27. It's crass, cruel, and borderline offensive, but the laughs that could redeem all of that are missing. Material as bad as the tripe that comprises Norbit can be endured only if there's a payoff. In this case, the point seems to be that some actors will do anything for a buck.
  29. The lackluster acting and horrendous dialogue don't help.
  30. Echelon Conspiracy is a more evocative title than a movie this stupid deserves.
  31. This film is unable to involve, entertain, or titillate. Basically, it stinks.
  33. Every once in a while, a movie comes along that is so boring and pointless, that those faithful movie-goers who never walk out on a film have to find some alternative to watching the mind- numbing stupidity unfolding on the screen.
  34. Just plain bad. Boring. Unwatchable.
  40. Surprise of surprises, Revolver turns out to be worse than "Swept Away" - and not just by a little bit.
  43. Uninspired and painfully familiar.
  44. If there is another challenger for worst entry of 2007, I don't want to see it.
  45. This is as witless as movies come -- an unamusing, moronic blend of horrible acting and inept screenwriting.
  46. Godsend is godawful.
  48. Speed 2 can be numbered among the worst second chapters ever made.
  50. If there's anything to like about The Bounty Hunter, it's Christine Baranski doing a Joan Rivers impersonation.
  52. If there's a blessing, it's that the sequel isn't appreciably worse than the original - but that's slim praise considering how bad the first one was.
  53. Fox should be paying potential viewers not to walk out of this turkey. The plot has all the depth and originality of a video game without the fun of the interactivity.
  55. The Last Airbender is an insult to anyone with a triple-digit I.Q. and a willingness to use it inside the confines of a movie theater. This is bad filmmaking and bad storytelling. It also sounds what should be the death knell to M. Night Shyamalan's career.
  57. 95 minutes of unrelieved tedium.
  59. No movie could be more aptly compared to raw sewage than this film.
  60. There's no evidence of craftsmanship or energy. Everything, from the plot to the execution, is plodding and obligatory.
  61. The only thing that distinguishes Species 2 is how awful it is.
  66. Defined by three characteristics. It is as stupid as a decapitated worm. It is as irritating as a mosquito buzzing around one's head. And it is as funny as "Schindler's List."
  68. One of the dumbest thrillers to arrive it theaters in a long time.
  69. Despite having the same title and a similar premise to a 1980 Jamie Lee Curtis flick (kids getting slaughtered on prom night), this is NOT a remake. In fact, it really doesn't have much of a plot. It's basically "The O.C." with a body count.
  70. Epic Movie is a waste of time. It's like a bad issue of "Cracked Magazine" come to life. It's not so much painful as it is sleep inducing.
  71. Unless you derive pleasure from watching Lohan being tortured, there's no reason to subject yourself to this movie. Besides, if that's your goal, all you have to do is turn on tabloid TV. There's Lindsay's living hell of a life, being broadcast 24/7.
  74. Mixed Nuts makes a point of stating that there's magic at Christmas. After seeing this movie, I'm a believer. After all, it's virtually impossible to come up with an alternate explanation of how something this awful could make it to theaters across the nation.
  76. If you've gone to Kung Pow for the plot, you have made a mistake. Come to think of it, if you have gone for the comedy, you've also made a mistake. In fact, if you've gone at all, you've made a mistake.
  77. Fair Game is howlingly bad - so awful, in fact, that it can actually be enjoyed on a certain level.
  78. This film is an absolute mess.
  80. Even the rare individual who died laughing while watching the trailer will discover that only half of that phrase - the "dying" part - applies to the experience of enduring the film.
  81. This film has no story, no characters, and no coherence.
  83. A cinematic excursion so horrific that it's an insult to bad movies to call it a bad movie.
