The Worst of the Worst for 2018

1. Pacific Rim Uprising: The worst thing about action films are the soulless ones. Watching this film is similar to the slow death.

2. Den of thieves: Don't expect much from January films, but this was just appalling. Drives on intensity alone, which would be fine if that intensity wasn't being handled by two sorry excuses for actors. Take a guess which two.

3. Since Daniel Craig's gritty version of Bond, the grueling life of a spy has been a fascinating exploration. FX's The Americans put the stamp on how detrimental the life of a spy can be on a soul. However, like with all barrels of apples, there are rotten ones nearby. Red Sparrow really brought the grittiness but it was confused on it's setting in time. Sometimes this movie thinks it's a period piece while it's still in the modern world. Once the screen time is taken off of Lawrence's character, the film loses focus, which it does a lot.

4. Anybody tired of the Rock, yet? Please let Hollywood know.

5. I'm a horror junkie. So, if  I say this movie is beyond unbearable, it's beyond unbearable. No matter Truth or Dare, your screwed either way. 

6. Sorry excuse to show some lesbian lovin'. No plot at all.

7. Rogue One was the only promising thing about the new Star Wars, but after this mess of a movie, this franchise has lost all hope.

8. Great characters. Great actors. Cool setting. Terribly crafted. Horribly plotted. Awful, Awful, Awful movie. Funny if this was more of a high octane action flick, at least it could be enjoyable.

9. A CBS traditional sitcom is what this is. Every cycle has a point when it's a spectacular phenomenon. Then they become modest cash grabs, but still intriguing storytelling. Finally, the final stage emerges, Total Cash Grab, which is what the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe has entered into. Ant man and the Wasp solidifies this.

10. Heartbreaking. Heartbreaking. Why didn't I put Slender Man in this spot? I barely saw through the limited lighting in that pitiful movie. Or Why didn't I put in the Possession of Hannah Grace? I absolutely hated that movie for it's dullness. I didn't hate Halloween nor thought it horribly made. Unlike Zombie's dishonorable display of the Shape, this film brings back the intriguing mystery behind this character. Sadly, it's everything else about this film that earns this spot of Worst. If I could some this film up in one word, it would be 'Lacking'.
