The worst film ever wasted minutes of life on!
Discussion
After a few whiskeys tonight, for some reason that I have no idea why, chose to watch the latest Danny dyer masterpiece called “marching powder” and I must say he has produced the absolute worst attempt at entertainment I have ever had the misfortune to spend time watching. It is so bad that after the first 2 minutes I thought it can’t carry on being this poor so spent the next 60+ minutes forwarding it to try and see if it got better to find it got even worse!!! -15/10

We thought it was...alright. A little better than we expected, in fact. For me, the interminably dull Lord of the Rings trilogy owe me a chunk of time....Doofus said:

Bit pedantic but in the spirit of answering, yes.
Skipped this total pile of s

Just about every film made after 2020 appears to be bereft of any imagination or entertainment. You can tell how crap it's going to be by how new it is.
I would go along with that. I would say I have been to the cinema less than 10 times since Covid and the only film that I can remember enjoying was Top Gun 2. I actually saw Marching Powder at the cinema, it is essentially Danny Dyer playing a caricature of himself for an hour and a half. Instantly forgettable and literally goes nowhere.
I saw the first lord of the rings film at the cinema and it is the longest, most boring film I have ever seen. Never watched another one.
Well if nothing else this thread illustrates that people like different things in movies, so, always try and see where someone else is coming from, before trusting their movie review as to what you would like.
To me for example Fellowship of the Ring is as masterpiece, and there are many great elements to the two films that followed, even if they do not touch quite the same heights of adaption. Someone else thinks that they are boring and of course for them they are.

I think there is a difference between films that a person doesn't like, and a film that is observably bad.
An individual might consider the Lord of the Rings, or Dune or Mamma Mia or whatever not to their particular taste, but they are not "bad" films. They have decent production values, a thought-through plot and a cohesive script.
A bad film, on the other hand, does not bother itself with any such niceties and instead takes its audience for granted, or for idiots.

Utter vanity project. The marketing for it even involved a fake award.
A couple of years ago a friend and I agreed that we would both watch a film from our younger days that the other hadn't seen. I wanted her to see The Lost Boys and she wanted me to see The Goonies, which was one of the most tedious couple of hours of my life. I can only imagine that you have to be a child to enjoy it. But you don't have to be a child to enjoy lots of other youthful films. Or maybe I'm a bore. She described The Lost Boys as "meh". Oh well...
