Worst of the Worst says Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>\u00a0<\/p>\n

Ballistic: Ecks vs Sever<\/em> took top dishonors on Rotten Tomatoes list.<\/p>\n

See if you agree witht Rotten Tomatoe\u2019s take on the worst 100 films. Of these I have seen about 12; and not all were as bad as all that , e.g. All about Steve (2009). OK, it was pretty bad but it had its moments. It could have been,\u00a0and for the talent, time, and money, should\u00a0have been,\u00a0a much better movie.<\/p>\n

The reason I don\u2019t make up worst film lists is because sometimes someone will be touched or moved or even encouraged by some aspect of a poorly made film.\u00a0 It is hard to find people who appreciate Joe Versus the Volcano (1990) <\/em>, for example. But I know that this film touched one life so profoundly that it saved the person \u2013 who was a child. Sister Act<\/em>\u00a0 (1992) is another film that was reviled early on but has become a classic for its good heart and fun.<\/p>\n

I really like what Rotten Tomatoes\u2019 Editor-in-chief Atchity<\/a>\u00a0has to say about the role of critics \u2013 how they can give a boost to small movies. To me, small movies are among the best, for example the 2005 Adam\u2019s Apples (Adams Aebler)<\/a>. I don\u2019t think my review boosted it very much but what a great little film.<\/p>\n<\/body><\/html>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
