Is "Escape from L.A." the worst movie ever?

well, if it's a 'rhetorical' question, you probably won't get much discussion on it.

Worse than "Pearl Harbour"? Worse than "Gigli"? Worse than "The Love Guru"? Worse than "Cocoon: The Return"?

I think your "rhetorical" question only shows bias and lack of cinematic culture...

Something good came from this film (MGS's Snake)... plus it's a bit of a cult classic... so definitely not.

Shit.... is They Live or Point Break a "good" movie...... hell no, but they are fun to watch.

You're correct, no one on Earth except you posseses that sadly inverted taste in Kurt Russell B movies.

Next you'll be claiming that Big Trouble in Little China is not the finest homage to Shaw Brothers movies made by an American director.

It's one of those movies that are good if you can accept them for what they are. It's like Tank Girl, I'd never nominate it for any award, but it was an amusing movie.

Na, however it's not in my Top 3 of Russell movies, that would probably go..

1. Tango & Cash
2. Executive Decision
3. Used Cars

How the hell do you leave out The Thing from your top 3 Russell movies list?
