As we enter the US Fall film season, where releases are generally considered to be of a more adult, cerebral and award-worthy nature, today we want to hear your thoughts on the worst of the worst. What’s your most hated movie of the past few months – more easily identifiable as the American Summer blockbuster period?
Would you name obvious Razzie contenders like Grown-Ups 2 or The Host? Or was there an overrated hit that you loathed – like Iron Man 3 for example?
I don’t think there’s any entry in the Marvel Cinematic Universe as divisive a…
There’s something just magical about stepping into a game world and not knowing exactly …

Iron Man 3 was definitely overrated. Fast & Furious 6 was also a big let-down after the standard set by the fifth movie.

It’s weird how many people didn’t like the new Star Trek. I was ready to hate it, but it’s easily become my favourite blockbuster of the year. In fact, the more I watch it, the more I like it. The last time that happened with a tentpole movie was The Avengers.

Star Trek Into Darkness and Iron Man 3 were “meh”, but Man of Steel was just the worst. Literally. The. Worst.

I have yet to see it, but I’m cautious. It got a lot of positive feedback, but so did Dark Knight Rises…
