The Ten Worst Movies Of 2017

Dishonorable Mention - Star Wars: The Last Jedi
This is only on here because it kills me that it's not on the top 10 list.  There was a lot to like about it but there was also a lot to not like.  I don't have the same major issues that a lot of fan boys have with it but there are some things that really do bother me.  I thought for sure this would be a lock for a top 3 after The Force Awakens and at worst maybe a little lower in the top 10 but for it to not come close to making that list - it gets the dishonorable mention of the year.

10 - Mother!
You want to talk about false advertising destroying a movie?  This one tried to capitalize on the scary movie hype from IT and went all out advertising it as the next big scary movie.  It was so not that.  It was a philosophical movie that was not in any way meant to be for mainstream audiences.  This definitely had the biggest WTF audience reaction to a movie I have seen in a long time.

9 - Fifty Shades Darker
This was easily the most not sexy movie about sex I've ever seen.  It was just plain painful.  The actors looked like they didn't even want to be doing it and couldn't wait for this franchise to be over.  The feeling is quite mutual.

8 - Valerian & The City Of A Thousand Planets
I was kind of excited to see this.  It looked like it could be Fifth Element-ish.  It very much was not.  It was a crapshow of special effects that honestly were not all that special.  I pulled the plug about halfway through the movie and have never bothered to watch the rest of it.

7 - Resident Evil: The Final Chapter
Please for the love of all that is holy let that tag line be true.

6 - XXX: The Return Of Xander Cage
No need for this return.  It was basically like watching Vin Diesel in really lame X-Games commercial for an hour and a half.

5 - Monster Trucks
There are lame kids movies and then there are ones that are just insulting grabs at the parents money.  This one definitely took the award for the latter in a year with lots of competition for that category.

4 - The Space Between Us
I would love to know whose idea it was to take the teenage romance craze from Twilight and say you know what that genre needs?  A sci-fi twist where a kid is born in space to add some spice to the whole long distance romance.  This movie was so bad that I just kept laughing through the whole thing.

3 - The Dark Tower
I have read all the Dark Tower books and am a HUGE fan of them.  I was so excited to hear that this would finally be getting brought to the big screen.  This was easily the most disappointing movie of the year and just such a jumbled mess of something that could be truly epic.

2 - Geostorm
How the hell do you screw up your run of the mill disaster movie?  You try to take it too serious and make it about a government conspiracy.  This movie was so bad and should have been a lock for worst of the year if it wasn't for the only movie to trump it.

1 - Transformers: The Last Knight
I literally see every movie that comes out but after suffering through an even worse sequel to one of my favorite moves ever in Transformers than the second turd, the third dung pile and fourth steaming pile of elephant crap - I swear that I am never going to watch a Transformers movie again.  So done with this over the top garbage.  Pulled the plug 1/2 way through this and am never going back.
