Top 10 Worst Theatrical Movies of All Time

There are quite a lot of bad movies out there. These are the worst ones to be released in theaters.
The Top Ten
1 The Emoji Movie

Okay, let me take a moment to rant/criticize this entry of the list. MegaSoulHero, let's ignore the fact that this is objectively better than "Where The Dead Go To Die" and "Foodfight! " which are movies that are literally BROKEN. Saying that the writers deserve to die a horrible death because they made a pandering pile of garbage is extreme and out of character. This movie isn't racist, offensive, disgusting beyond belief, or attacking a certain person, so there's no excuse for wishing death upon the writers. Saying that there are YouTube comments that are even worse is not an excuse either. Just because one kid's doing it doesn't mean you have to as well. Do I even need to describe what happened to poor Rebecca Black? You also clearly did very little research, as Spider-Man: Homecoming and Baby Driver (You know, that movie we can both agree is one of the best of the year) COUNT as Sony movies, so to tell people NOT to buy Sony products solely because of this one is childish and kind ...more

This isn't the worst movie to come out in 2017, but it's the movie that angered me the most! I hope the writers die a horrible death! The voice actors should be ashamed of themselves for being in this film! I watched AniMat's review of the movie and I felt like he was being way too nice! He gave it a 2/10 which is way too high! Everything about this movie was bad! What do you expect from the director of Stitch Has a Glitch? The Emoji Movie tries way too hard to be hip and cool to appeal to kids of this generation! Spotify, Instagram, YouTube, Candy Crush, Just Dance, Dropbox, it's so stupid! The animation is terrible! The characters are one dimensional! Sony is the worst studio on the entire planet! Just don't pay money for anymore of their movies! They're all terrible! I'm not just talking about Sony Pictures Animation! I'm talking about ALL of Sony!

Sony spent $50M on this abomination and they only gained about $24M-$25M in profit. It was targeted towards kids and kids don't care about reviews. The animation sucked, the plot was awful and the writing was terrible. Whats next? The Figet Spinner Movie? The Water Bottle Flip Movie? This movie was made by Sony the same people who made that Ghostbusters remake. Don't even get me started on that one. Worst movie I've ever seen.

Sony is horrid and even though they have made awful movies like this, Sausage Party, Why Him? , Rough Night, Sex Tape, and Office Christmas Party, Sony has made some great movies like the first 2 installments in Sam Raimi's Spider-Man trilogy, Memento, Men in Black, the 1984 Ghostbusters film, Baby Driver, and Spiderman: Homecoming. But that leaves me questioning, can they make good films again? But let time decide.

2 The Last Airbender

I was randomly looking in my list of movies I like that everyone hates and I was reading the comment I made under James Cameron's Avatar in which I made a joke about the Last Airbender since the cartoon is titled "Avatar: the Last Airbender" and I said that this movie was garbage. So I decided to make this list because of that! This movie is absolute trash! I don't hate Shyamalan, but this is definitely his worst movie! He took a great T.V. show and completely butchered it! The pacing is sloppy, the actors can't act, the bending routines are overly complicated! There was this one scene where 5 earthbenders were doing this whole little dance, and it caused them to move one rock! Are you serious!? They did all that just to move a rock!? This movie was written by idiots.

This the perfect example of why movie producers should read/watch/play the form of entertainment they want to make a movie out of.
The reason people loved Harry Potter, Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Alice in Wonderland, The Wizard of Oz, Lord of the Rings, The Chronicles of Narnia, Batman, Gone With the Wind, and The Outsiders is because the movie producers took time to see what the story was about.

Long ago, all four nations lived in harmony. However, everything changed when Manoj Night Shyamalan attacked. Only common sense, the thing necessary in every human being needed, could have stopped this but when the world needed it most, it vanished.

After 45 minutes of this movie, I just stopped watching it and cried. By the way, the comics for Avatar were gonna be animated movies, but Nick decided no! Do they know how much money they could've made turning the comics into movies! I am glad this movie is number 1. (for the time being)

3 Fifty Shades of Grey

Imagine a movie where, for 95% of it, the characters are sawing wood in half. No speaking, no music, just a guy sawing wood in half with the occasional sound effect. That is Fifty Shades of Grey, except where they're sawing wood in half they're having sex. If you wouldn't watch a guy sawing wood in half for 2 hours, why would you watch 2 people for 2 hours straight?

I want someone to make a YouTube video of 50 Shades of Grey, but each time they're about to do something sexual then it shows the same boring clip of, say, a freight ship slowly sailing the sea. I bet that'll show people how bad this movie is.

Both of the Fifty Shades movies go in this spot! But I can only put one movie in each spot. Still, this entire franchise is horrendous! Most of the porn on Porn Hub have better stories than this! Not that I go on Porn Hub. I was just assuming. Nothing about these movies are good! The two main characters constantly have sex even though Anastasia Steele doesn't like it! She's such an idiot! I never read the books, but I probably wouldn't want to. The dialogue is stupid! The acting is bad! And there's gonna be a third one! They should just cancel it! I doubt it's gonna make a lot of money!

Good looking bloke, but not really my type of romance. People compare it to Twilight, yeah it was based on a Twilight fanfiction but Twilight is a teen film.

The author is making a spin-off book based on Christian's point of view. *shudders*

4 Garbage Pail Kids Movie (1987)

Suicide Squad & Terminator Genisys look like the first 2 Godfathers compared to this!

Is the Emoji Movie seriously at number one? Its bad, but this is way worse.

Hopefully you brought a trash can with you when you saw this.

Yup! This aired in theaters. Up to Number 1 please.

5 Movie 43

I actually sat all the way through this movie in a near-empty theatre. The only sounds to come out of me during the film were gasps of shock and disbelief (that a film this bad could be approved for theatrical release). I don't think my mouth was closed the entire run-time. It was basically on the floor.

Speaking of Anna Faris, apparently she and Chris Pratt are separating.

Please don't watch after seeing the cast. You'll regret it. Seriously.

Mr. Hays is dying on his grave

6 Norm of the North

When I first saw this movie, I thought it was the worst animated movie ever! That is no longer the case! We have the Emoji Movie to thank for that! Still, it is pretty horrendous! Rob Schneider as a polar bear is a very stupid idea! And the fact thst they have Norm twerk in the movie is even dumber! The lemmings are a ripoff of the minions from Despicable Me. Except the minions can actually be funny at times. The lemmings never even made me smile! The animation is just terrible! How did this make it into theaters? The reason why I think it's better than the Emoji Movie is because at least it had an original plot. It was an absolutely terrible plot, but it was still more original than the Emoji Movie!

This has four sequels, and the second movie to this combines two 45-minute straight to dvd sequels into one limited released movie.

There's a reason why people see Lionsgate as a box office bomb company now these days

How did this even make it to theatrical release?

Hollywood doesn't need you any more, Rob!

7 Batman & Robin

This is the worst superhero movie I've ever seen! Why do people hate Batman v Superman more than this? This one is an insult to Batman! It pretty much treats Batman like a joke! Even the Lego Batman Movie felt more like a Batman film than this! The casting is terrible, the effects are terrible, the dialogue is terrible! I like George Clooney but he doesn't seem like he cares in this movie! Which makes sense since he has to work with a bad script. This movie is so insultingly bad! One of the worst movies ever made and the worst superhero movie ever made!

I agree that George clooney was a good cast to batman because he looks exactly what you Imagine him to look like but the script is trash! Could it get any worse from all the cheesy comments to a nippled bat suit!

8 Frozen

Oh come on stop hating so much on frozen guys. Sure it's overrated as all hell but in my opinion it's nowhere near a bad movie. It was just fine for me

Oh, so you like recent Sony films and most other films on this list such as Twilight and live-action cartoon remakes, huh?! - The Ultimate Daredevil to 445956

Speaking of films that are trendy to hate...

This is a really good movie, stop.

9 Jack and Jill

Adam Sandler sucks! Did anyone really think it would be funny to see Sandler dress up as a fat woman? It's not funny! It's never going to be funny! Stop thinking it's funny! I feel sorry for Al Pacino. He doesn't deserve to be in a movie like this! I can't stand Sandler's annoying female voice! It sounds like nails on a chalkboard! Was anyone expecting this movie to be good? I hate a lot of Adam Sandler movies, but this is the worst of them!

I actually sat through this film in theatres, too. What is wrong with me?

Unwatchable is the only way to describe this.

What an embarrassment to an actor's career.

10 Left Behind (2014)

This movie makes absolutely no sense. But since it's a Nicolas Cage movie, that doesn't surprise me. I watched this on Netflix just to see how bad it is, and it was AWFUl! If you watch IHE's review of this movie, you would see why. The scenes in this movie are some of the dumbest scenes put in a movie! The worst thing about the movie is the message! By the way, Jordin Sparks is in this movie. I like her as a singer, but she can't act! Left Behind is terribly acted, terribly written movie and deserves its 2% on Rotten Tomatoes!

Why is this number 51 on the worst movies of 2014 list? It deserves number 1.

The Contenders
11 Twilight

What surprises me is that this franchise actually has fans. I never read the books, but each movie is so bland and dull! The actors give lifeless performances! I'm pretty sure it's not the actors' faults. Taylor Lautner has been shown to be a good actor. And so has Kristen Stewart. They're just being told to act as boring as possible! Kind of like in Attack of the Clones! It's not like Emma Watson because she gives a bland performance no matter what! Speaking of Emma Watson, did you know the director of the live action Beauty and the Beast movie directed Breaking Dawn? That explains a lot. They make the characters in these movies so bland that it makes it hard for us to care about them! I don't get what teenage girls see in this film.

A trend to hate.
Because Edward and the others don't look like vampires.

A stupid fad that faded hard valuing money over cinematography.

Book is better. No one can act.

12 Freddy Got Fingered

@MegaSoulHero If you wanted to wish death on somebody, wish it upon the person who made THIS. Taking a newborn and swinging it by the umbilical cord is only ONE of the "jokes" in this movie.

The title though

13 Dragonball: Evolution

I never watched Dragon Ball. Mainly because it's anime and anime sucks. I would do a "Mega Rants" post about anime, but I feel like if I do, it would turn into a rant about anime fans rather than the actual topic. Anyway, Dragonball Evolution is a perfect example of why turning anime into live action doesn't work! Anime has a certain style that you can't recreate in live action! Throughout this movie, I was like "What am I even looking at? " The best thing about this movie would probably have to be Jamie Chung since she's smokin' hot! You'll find some very interesting pictures of her online. But still, anime into live action is stupid! Speed Racer and Ghost in the Shell were both terrible! And the Death Note Netflix movie is definitely going to be bad! I never even liked Death Note to begin with! Even though I wasn't a fan of Dragon Ball, this movie was still a slap in the face.

I haven't seen the movie, but I've seen clips, this screwed up just as bad as the Tekken movie! In fact it's just like the Tekken movie! Giving a good franchise a bad name with a live action film that has no relevance to the franchise at all!

It would be better if it was animated.

14 Fantastic Four (2015)
15 Godzilla (1998)
16 Suicide Squad

I can't wait for this war to start.

17 Alvin & the Chipmunks
18 Where the Dead Go to Die

Who put this on the list? It's bad but it was never released in theaters...

19 Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice

Horrid dialogue, over the top acting, crappy special effects, terribly written story & script, weak character motivations, and awful pacing is what makes this movie so bad! But at least, there is more to appreciate in this than there is in Suicide Squad.

Okay. This doesn't deserve to be here. This list item is in 10th place because it's trendy to hate this film. That's all guys. Vote for it and you're lying to yourself. It's not THAT bad. It's not GREAT, but it's not TOP 10 bad, either.

20 Sex Tape
21 Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul
22 After Last Season

This in my opinion, is the worst movie ever made to be a theatrical release, everything about it is not just horrible, but BROKEN.

Now THIS... THIS is how you make the most horrible movie imaginable! Just... watch it I can't even (at least watch a review on it)

23 Justin Bieber: Never Say Never
24 Fifty Shades Darker
25 Sausage Party

Imagine if Sony Pictures Animation works on the sequel to this like they did with The Angry Birds Movie 2.

Sausage Party 2 - Goku eats all of them.

Horrible movie ever! its worst then emoji movie, this movie is rated R in its not for kids or teens to watch at all, WARNING do not let your kids watch this movie!
