Worst of 2015 - End of Year Report

And here are the ten worst films I saw (for the first time) in 2015. Shite.

1. Valhalla Rising (2009)
Mads Mikkelsen couldn't save this excruciatingly boring steamer.

2. Salmon Fishing in the Yemen (2011)
Laughably crap, this contains a scene where Ewan McGregor disarms a would-be assassin by casting his fishing line at him. And that's a highlight.

3. Jupiter Ascending (2015)
Absurd but dull, even with Eddie Redmayne doing what he did. Let's have that Oscar back, thanks.

4. Snow White and the Huntsman (2012)
Pedestrian stuff with Charlize Theron seemingly trying to out-chew Redmayne.

5. Hercules (2014)
Lovejoy, you have some explaining to do!!!! To be fair, I wasn't expecting a classic.

6. Lucy (2014)
Euro-trash + Scarlett = arse grapes

7. Chappie (2014)
Neill Blomkamp shows he may just be a one trick pony.

8. Maps to the Stars (2014)
Most of my bile regarding this was produced by that cockroach shit paste kid, but also general disappointment in the great Cronenberg.

9. Godzilla (2014)
Not the worst but should have been much better. And Taylor-Johnson is anti-charisma.

10. The Zero Theorem (2013)
Baffling and unsatisfying. Brazil-lite.
