This movie didn't live up to the other 2. His new suit seems much less menacing, and Venom gets like 10 minutes of screen time. The whole dark version of Peter was really corny as well.
Worst spiderman film ever! Totally lacklustre plot and acting!
This was crap, but why's the Goblet of Fire here?

Wow, I just kept waiting for something cool to happen, it never did! Primo waste of time.
The WORST movie ever made, destroying all of the typical and rich 'vampire' traits!
I enjoyed the books and I loved how Stephine Meyer changed the future for YA fantasy. So many writers have been discovered because she paved the way for the YA fantasy. But the movie sucked really badly. I liked the parody Vampires Sucks better. At least Vampires Sucks was suppose to be funny.

The first one was amazing and then they had to make this one - changing the mythology and adding completely ridiculous plot points that went nowhere.
This was, and probably still is, my favorite book series I have ever read. I picked it up before it started getting popular. Honestly, this was hidden on some shelf in the back of Borders when I found it and I had never heard of it before (the first book had just barely been published at that point). When I finished the book, I remember telling someone that it would make the most awesome movie. Instead, years passed and this came out. This was the biggest movie disappointment of my lifetime thus far.
In this movie, people died who weren't supposed to. Things happened all out of order. Saphira wasn't even the right character, nor did she even have her growing up phase. It was as though the creators of the movie were trying to make something with the littlest imagination, and with apparently the lowest budget, required.
Not only did this ruin my experience with the movie, but also those around me since I couldn't resist blurting out what actually did or didn't happen, such as the "Hey! The Ra-zac play a key role in the next book. They can't just be killed off within a minute of first being introduced to them here! " and things like that, not to mention that the ending is such that it is impossible to make the next movies.
To everyone who thinks this movie is even remotely OK. I say read the book, re-watch the movie, and see if you can try to not pull your hair out as you sit through it.
Needless to say, this is in serious need of remaking and whoever owns rights to this should be socked in the mouth, sued (just for good measure), and asked to hand it over to someone who deserves it.
THEY KILLED MY HOPES AND DREAMS OF AN AWESOME MOVIE! *choking sobs*
*runs away crying her heart out*

Scared the living day lights out of me and gave me a major headache... Pointless!
I remember all the hype about this movie. It was on TV everywhere, the trailer was attached to movies in theaters, and everyone was talking about it. Once it hit theaters, the buzz was gone instantly.

My heart broke. I was expecting to see the Ancient's reunion, and it never happened. Even worse, they made Armand into an ugly, blond fat-ball >_<
It's wonderful, said everyone. Yeah right... Wasn't bad, but wasn't worth all those Academy Awards it won.
ohright
How this one won best picture I will never know. I saw it in theaters and was disappointed when I left. It wasn't bad. But best picture? Really?

The movie had none of this. It was just scene after scene of random things that were seemingly copy pasted from the cartoon and stuck together, with way too much narration.
The first movie was an exhibition of groundbreaking effects making the movie monsters appear more tangible than ever before. The sequel thoroughly shattered that illusion with a mini heroine doing a gymnastics routine in the jungle.
I watched that movie and that is one and a half hours of my life I will never get back.
I thought I had missed something after watching the whole movie twice and not cracking a single smile once. And then it dawned on me. My friends are just stupid.
All the weed in the world still wont make this movie funny. It's not one of those cynical movies that requires a bit of intellect to understand, it requires a bit of retardedness and a lot of stupidity.

I agree with rorschach1011. They shouldn't have killed cyclops
Heman
They killed Cyclops, the best X-Man ever, so that pretty much ruined the movie
rorschach1011
As a maniac fans of previous X-men movie, I was so dissapointed with this one!
damn, why Bryan Singer didn't direct it.. it just look all dark, without any escent like previously made.. Bret Ratner suck!

I rank this one as more disappointing than Batman & Robin because after this one, you knew the fourth iteration was going to be a stinker. I had hoped for much more from a cast that included Val Kilmer, Tommy Lee Jones, Jim Carrey and Nicole Kidman.
It is still an amazing movie but I'm so deceived by it... Because we will never know what Kubrick has in mind for editing it! He was unhappy by this version before he died? Why? What would have been cut, changed and improved? Scorcese had written on this movie: This cannot be called a Kubrick movie because the final editing is what makes the entire tone of the film. A director must not die before completing it
I can't believe it that this is the last Kubrick's movie..So sad..
When I heard they were making a realistic interpretation of the stories of King Arthur, I was hoping for another Troy. Instead I got a dull, wannabe buddy flick with completely non-endearing characters and a weak storyline.
The scene on the frozen lake was the only good part of the movie. Oh, and I kinda liked Keira Knightley's war bikini. But as a "history" movie, and as a movie in general, it overall sucks.

It wasnt horrible but I just expected more out of it.

Worst movie ever. There really is not much more to say, but I need more words. Mm, okay, I'm good now.
Does not hold up to the first two. Shrek 2 may be the greatest movie of all time.
Let's see here... Resevoir Dogs, Pulp Fiction, Kill Bill and Jackie Brown... which one is not like the others.
Decent flick but no way should it have won best picture against the likes of Pulp Fiction or The Shawshank Redemption. Tom Hanks given his 2nd consecutive oscar is a joke considering that all he did was act slow. Gary Sinise stole the film.
Worst movie ever so boring all he says "momma used to say " just like waterboy it gets so annoying!
Hype... hype... hype... then nothing but Tom Hanks pretending to be slow? Awful... just horrendous.
I liked this new Indiana Jones movie, but with Shia Labeouf, No!
How the hell this movie is so low on this list? This movie is the most horrible sequel of all time. This movie have horrible story line from begging to end, comparing to the other 3 masterpieces. Putting this movie on theater and putting this movie on DVD is more offensive to the Indiana Jones series(1~3) then putting all the Indiana Jones movies for the "worst movie ever".
I was so excited about this. Its not a bad movie, it just wasn't as good as I thought it would be.
Ok movie... but Best Picture? No.

During the whole length of the movie, I was waiting for something to happen, it took AGES. I could have fell asleep
God this movie was aweful! I watched it five times hoping to not be able to sleep that night but I slept like a rock! This is THE worst, most un-scary, and at best kinda funny (e. g. Katie being "dragged" out of bed.
fireinside96
This movie was awful, I thought it would be insanely scary and guess what... I LAUGHED at how stupid and cheesy and how un-scary it was, hype x 1000.
I like the concept and the feel enough to have tried to get through this multiple times in hopes that it will get better And for all I know, it might if I could stop from falling asleep.
The acting was 10x better in the first movie. The acting in this move is just terrible.
This butchers the jaws series with its cornball story. It's definitely safe to back in the water!
A shark seeking vengeance, swimming thousands of miles in only a couple of days, able to rear up on its fin out of the water and roar (yes, a roaring shark, urgh), the main character having flashbacks of events she didn't even WITNESS and the shark exploding upon being impaled.
I bet the shark was thrilled when its death scene came up.
ah yes and yet another potentially excelent movie ruined by the government just nuking the place.
I walked out after the first scene, should give some idea how good it was.
could be the worst movie of ALL TIME

all star cast with very lame plot. Not even funny for a comedy.

MAN was this movie a let down? I wanted to see it but ended up seeing Pirates of the Caribbean instead. Boy am I glad I went for that over Hulk?

The cheesy tv show was better.
For all I know, this movie has the best ending sequence ever. I just haven't been able to watch it long enough to find out.
Movie sucked BIG TIME....Some rappers need to stick to rapping
greatest story ever told...weak movie.
It was filmed in secret. In a secret location. With an unlimited budget by Costner who brought us "Dances with Wolves. " And what did we get? Villians on jet skies.
It was like waiting the summer for the Beatles and showing up for a Ringo Starr concert.
Just aweful.
People really don't understand how big a flop this movie was. Mostly because it was so bad every body forgot about it.

when I saw the trailer I go "OMG TINA FEY AND STEVE CARELL IN THE SAME MOVIE OMG", but when I saw it I go "... is that it? really? "
LucasMota
Was billed to be the best "sci-fi" film since "Jurrasic Park. " Yeah right. The dialog was worse than something George Lucas could have written. They had a chance to combine new special effects technology with an almost unlimited budget to create a film about what really might happen if Aliens landed on Earth. Instead, they went for the almighty buck and made a "Hollywood" film. After half an hour you knew the whole story; "The aliens will be voilent. Panick will ensue. Someone will die. Someone will become the hero and all will be well in the end. "
What a waste of time and film.
I went to that as a kid expecting to be swept away by Disney... Instead I slept in a movie threatre for two and a half hours...
This movie burned my childhood! Never let a spinosaur defeat a rex!

There are so many brilliant people in the business (directors, graphics artists, editors, writers, etc) that could have made a brilliant fourth edition to the Star Wars films. It just goes to show that George Lucas should have listened to the talented people around him instead of doing it himself once again.
That film had the worst writing and dialog of any film before or since. Way to ruin a franchise George.
