And one that I didn't sit through - I walked out after less than an hour:
The Protector - The Tony Jaa movie about a guy who breaks people's arms to save his pet elephant. The fight scenes at the beginning of the movie were actually quite bad, and everything else was so terrible I couldn't even bear to watch. It was so poorly edited that most of it had severe continuity problems, especially during chase scenes. Apparently the last 30-45 minutes were full of awesome fight scenes, but I missed them.
Deep Blue Sea was a bad movie, but enjoyable. Ditto for Scary Movie. Temple of Doom is a good movie, it just pales in comparison to Raiders and Last Crusade (by a long damn shot).
But the real reason I quote your post is for The Protector, for which you earn a coveted "Epic Fail" award. This movie, simply put, kicks ass. Let me preface this by saying that anyone who watches a martial arts movie for the plot is a retard. That said, Protector has some awesome fight scenes; the capoeira master,
Nathan Jones, the goofy ass fight with the roller bladers and ATVer where Tony Jaa backflips off a piece of glass as an ATV breaks the fuck through it... And that's not mentioning the scene where Jaa breaks into the club and fights off wave after wave of bad guys in a single, unedited, cut, which runs for like 8 minutes straight. If you entered this movie expecting Shakespeare, yeah, you're going to be disappointed, but come on, this movie has some of the best fight scenes in history. Jesus God man...
As for the original intent of this post, the worst movie I ever sat through was
National Lampoon's Gold Diggers. I was reviewing it for the college paper, so the tickets were free. The review was one of the most fun things I've ever written that was published without the courts getting involved.
