2017 had a slew of great cinema but what about the bad.

Today, I am here to give you what I considered the absolute WORSE movies of 2017. Like these movies have gone from being bad pieces of crap to actual endurance tests that were painful as hell.

Here are my Top 25 WORST Movies of 2017.

http://www.rendyreviews.com/get-on-top//top-25-worst-movies-of-2017

But what about you guys? What would you consider the worst films of 2017?
 
Of the ones I got around to...
10. Batman and Harley Quinn
9. The Mummy
8. Fifty Shades Darker
7. The Layover
6. Justice League
5. The Resurrection of Gavin Stone
4. XXX: The Return of Xander Cage
3. Book of Henry
2. Bright
1. The Dark Tower
 
Thankfully I haven't seen all of Snow Queen's list. But out of what I have seen:

4. Book of Henry: A strange film, that seems to fight itself in terms of tone, while really disliking his female characters too a ridiculous degree.

3. Bright: Generic mythos, generic plot, with a bad aesthetic, bad acting, bad logic and overall boring story and plot.

2. Justice League: Even with some good moments with Superman, the Flash, and Aquaman, I ended up finding this worse then BvS. It is a narrative so clearly chopped up, with a very thin plot and no payoff.

1. The Dark Tower: It was bad enough that this movie is terrible in every way. That it ruined one of my favorite stories made it worse.
 
1. The Snowman -- one of the worst non-Transformers/non-DCEU bigger films I have ever seen. Terribly edited and directed to the point where one needs a primer to follow the plot.

2. Fifty Shades Darker -- very dull and pointless, unless you thought the negotiations at the end of Breaking Dawn part 2 were too exciting. And I still don't understand why the blond guy was stalking Anastasia.

3. The Dark Tower -- a classic example of filmmakers not trusting the material, genericizing it into a boilerplate YA thing. Guys, if you distrust the material this much, adapt something else. There are tons of YA books out there with built-in audiences.

4. Baywatch -- I can't remember a thing about this film except an unfunny d*ck joke and that the villain was sexy and obnoxious.

5. XXX: The Return of Xander Cage -- Dad-boobs: the movie. Just stop it. Stop it right now.

6. The Mummy -- Also, stop halting your movie in the middle to set up your own universe. If you want to copy Marvel, then learn from it and don't repeat its early mistakes.

7. Transformers The Last Knight -- at least four different films, each of them promising, but when smashed together completely incomprehensible. Kitchen sink filmmaking at its finest.

8. Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Men Tell No Tales -- can't remember anything about this except that Effie from Skins is in it. I think.

9. The Layover -- Just because people go on and on about Alexandria Daddario's sexiness on the internet doesn't mean that's enough to sustain a whole movie. Ditto Kate Upton.

10. The Book of Henry -- an interesting failure. Terrible but at least memorably so.
 
The Dark Tower...Christ it's been a while since I left a theatre as pissed off as that
 
Of the ones I watched
  • Resident Evil: The Final Chapter
  • Power Rangers
  • Ghost in the Shell
  • Colossal (a movie that keeps me wondering 'What?', 'HUH?' and 'How?!' almost all the time is not a good movie, less so when any revelation it has is a convoluted head shaker)
  • Alien: Covenant

I cannot include Legend of the Sword for the mere fact that it did not make me cringe even half as many times as Power Rangers did.


Films I knew ahead that they were made to be actively ignored and avoided
  • Fifty Shades
  • Transformers
  • Any movie with Kate Upton or Alexandra Daddario
  • The Return of Xander Cage (I loathe that character, I really have nothing redeemable to say about him in his first movie)
  • The Emoji Movie
 
Of the ones I saw, I'd have to go with Despicable Me 3, followed by Lego Batman.
 
1) Baywatch
2) The Emoji Movie
3) The Belko Experiment
4) Bright
5) Kong: Skull Island
6) You Get Me
7) Lego Batman
8) American Assassin
9) Transformers: The Last Knight
10) Justice League
 
:TOP 10:

1. Resident Evil: The Final Chapter
2. Baywatch
3. Transformers: The Last Knight
4. Rings
5. The Bye Bye Man
6. Power Rangers
7. The Mummy
8. Alien: Covenant
9. Fist Fight
10. The Snowman
 
I made it a point of avoiding most of the movies that looked awful this past year, but out of all of them, Transformers: The Last Knight was the worst I saw. All in all, that one was still better than the fourth Transformers movie.
 
I'm legit surprised they managed to make a worse Transformers than the last one.
Ghost in the Shell should've just focused its story on the villain.
Baywatch's crappy editing stuck out to me.
Although, obviously not as bad as Justice League's.
The most recent stinkers I watched:
MV5BMjg1NDY0NDYzMV5BMl5BanBnXkFtZTgwNzIwMTEwNDI@._V1_UX182_CR0,0,182,268_AL_.jpg
MV5BOGNkMzliMGMtMDI5Ni00OTZkLTgyMTYtNzk5ZTY1NjVhYjVmXkEyXkFqcGdeQXVyNTAzMTY4MDA@._V1_UX182_CR0,0,182,268_AL_.jpg


Generic is the nicest way to describe Lady Bird because it practically has everything one would expect from a teen movie and stuff happens the way you would expect it to. The Disaster Artist felt so bizarre in a- not quite as endearing or as funny as that comedy team is capable of.
 
1. The Assignment.
2. The Vault

Both absolute garbage. First one was directed by Walter Hill, which kills me.
 
The Void with Justice League closely behind. The most underwhelming one in terms of acclaim that its received has to be Lady Bird.
 
Justice League

Jeepers Creepers 3


Generally avoid movies that I have no interest in or look bad. I got fooled by the ones above; they weren't underwhelming, they were plain awful but I have a bigger disdain for Justice League.
 
I haven't compiled a list yet, but I know that my number 1 WORST movie of 2017 was Logan Lucky. So f***ing boring! Worst performance for every actor in the movie ever. I have a rule that no matter how bad a movie is, I'll never leave the theater early... but this movie almost pushed me to that point.
 
I haven't seen a lot of the mentioned films above because the trailers looked bad, but here's 5 that I got suckered into that I wish I had not seen.

1) Beauty and the Beast
2) 3 Generations
3) The Circle
4) All Eyez On Me
5) Baby Driver
