As far as disappointing? That easily goes to The Rover.

Although it got off to a good start, it ran out of steam quickly. Talk about a one-joke, one-idea movie. One of Jarmusch's weakest films.

I was coasting through this little snarkfest until your Malificent review. It's so off the mark about so many things that I can't trust the rest of the article. You say they failed to develop a loving relationship between Aurora and Malificent and that the feminist themes in the film are nonexistent. Not weaker than you'd like; nonexistent. I think you must have seen a different movie than I did. And now I can't know how many other mischaracterizations you make about the other films in the article. The clock has struck thirteen.

Hey lets write a bitchy article where we take mediocre movies and call them terrible for obnoxious non-reasons!
Spiderman 2 cost a billion dollars, so it should have been brilliant right? But it was merely "meh", therefore it is a cinematic abortion.
Lovers Left Alive is a critical darling, what if we publish some contrarian bullshit just to stir the pot?
Maleficent is a summer blockbuster instead of the fulfillment of my specific vision of feminist empowerment?

Many of us like movies for their diversity and imaginative fun with no standard in mind. BUT that's not your job, I guess… I liked Walk of Shame…and Maleficent tremendously. And I'm still going to see Million ways to die in the West… So there..

No one goes to the movies for gender politics. Go write a "think piece" for Salon or something.

Honestly wasn't a bad film at all, but out of all the films I've seen it was the lowest ranked, maybe tied with nympho part 2, which sucks the life from me.

Most Disappointing: Godzilla
I don't know what they were thinking with the little plot change up with Bryan Cranston's character, but they could have made a fantastic father son movie that would have given much needed character to ATJ's man. Trailers made it look quite arty and somewhat psychological, but we got typical action movie fair.

The new spidermans resonate with me so much and yeah the second was a bit messy but it was still better than a lot of films this year. For the life of my I don't know why people hate Dom Hemingway. I saw it at a festival and the entire audience laughed through the whole film, and I'm not exaggerating. Basically the entire film. It was hilarious.

Both were vastly overrated garbage.

Disappointing: 'Sabotage' – 'End of Watch' was very good. The plot sounded fun, but it turned out to be the third worst film of the year.

But I have to echo Rodrigo's sentiments on Edge of Tomorrow. I just don't see why that movie has been getting a pass from critics. In addition to the criticisms he named, I thought the ending was an absolute disaster! In the last five minutes of the movie, my star rating for it plummeted.
