The Hunger Games.
It was bad, and they should feel bad.
I acutally thought the first 2 Hunger Games movies were pretty good. I was pleasantly surprised by #2--I figured it would be stupid because the concept would be so played out after the 1st movie, but they managed to add enough political depth IMO to make it interesting.
Unfortunatley I thought the last 2 movies were not good. The last movie in particular felt very very gimmicky and the 3rd movie was just plain boring.
Oh yeah. My wife dragged me to see the first 3 and it was painful. Hated every minute of it. I've managed to avoid the last one.
I was suckered into reading those books a few years ago.
The first book was almost good, from there it all went downhill and the last book was so bad I nearly gouged my eyes out.
I've only seen the first movie and I don't think you could pay me enough to watch the other three.
That almost exactly mirrors my experience. I couldn't watch past the first movie, it was just so bad. I got through book two, then lost my interest in the thing, but did eventually finish reading for the sake of closure.

Most Quentin Tarrantino films not named Reservoir Dogs.

I'm not a movie junkie, but the thing I love about Tarantino's movies is the dialogue is always amazing. Pulp Fiction, Reservoir Dogs, the whole final act of Kill Bill 2. The name of the new one escapes me, but it was almost 3 hours and basically just talking and I somehow wasn't bored. It wasn't his best though.
Wrong. Sorry.
I will no longer value your opinion..

Pulp Fiction, True Romance, and Resevoir Dogs are about it for me as far as QT films go. The rest have been sort of bleh, but those three are incredible film making.
Love most QT movies and, cool story bro, I once sat behind him in a theater in LA. That said, Kill Bill and Kill Bill 2 were awful awful movies. His dialogue is great, but in those movies he was fairly fresh of of Pulp Fiction and no one was going to edit him. It was like watching him verbally masturbate for 9 hours. If he had someone to reign him in it might have been something. (My wife loves both movies.)
I know it got ok reviews, but the worst movie I ever paid to walk out on is The Water Diviner. Just total garbage.
And I should caveat it by saying I don't see many movies I don't really like. I'm pretty good at picking and choosing, so this one seemed like it'd be ok, but man.
Back in the day, my brothers and I used to rent and watch bad horror movies and MST3k them. The worst of the bunch is called Rottweiler, about a bloodthirsty, cybernetic rottweiler. The tag line of the movie is Eat. Sleep. Fetch. Kill. What's not to like? The whole movie is was near unwatchable, including a 10 minute scene of the main character running around naked; dong shots and all. This also included some very "creative" shots of him running over the camera. I don't really remember too much more, other than the lack of killing for such a movie. For your sake, watch at your own risk.

Because it's a classic
Freddie got fingered was really funny 15 years ago.
Not sure if I would feel that way if I seen it now.
Battlefield Earth. I walked out when cave men could magically start flying harrier jump jets.
3% on Rottentomatoes as well. Apparently I wasn't the only one.
edit: Avatar: The Last Airbender comes in a close second for unbelievably terrible considering how good the source material is.

Yes and they apparently had full tanks of gas and fired up on the first try. Totally legit /s.....holy shit that movie was bad.
The book for Battlefield Earth was rather good (not great), but I only discovered later that it was written by the founder of Scientology. Fortunately, I was warned away from the movie long before being tempted to see it.

Shadowlands. Most boring movie ever.
I was all excited to see it, it had Anthony Hopkins in it who I love.
But both me and my wife fell asleep within the first 15 minutes. Slept through the entire movie.
We both still joke about it.
Anthony Hopkins is brilliant as usual but Debra Winger, holy crap she's a bad actress, completely ruined that movie and fine acting job by Anthony Hopkins
