It’s been a pretty good year for Movies, but as we all know steaming piles of celluloid, digital or otherwise make it onto the big screen as well. So we’re taking a look at our review archive for 2012 providing you with everything you need to know when it comes to the best and worst movies of the year. So let’s get going with a look at The Worst movies of 2012 and when you’re finished with the worst, check out the best movies of the year by clicking here
MOVIE: THE MAN WITH THE IRON FISTS
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: Avoid this and put on your Game of Death DVD…or even Kung Fu Hustle. Actually scrap that. Trying to break a plank of wood with your head in a cold shower for 90 minutes is a far better alternative!
MOVIE: A DANGEROUS METHOD
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: This film is utterly fogettable. It isn’t that it is bad, it’s just not good. I would rather it to have been shite, at least then it would provide some discussion.
MOVIE: THE RAVEN
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: When I first heard about it, I thought it could be good, given the talent involved, but with the contrived and excessive gore and special effects, ordinary performances and vapid screenplay, I wouldn’t recommend it if you want to see something good.
MOVIE: THE PIRATES! IN AN ADVENTURE WITH SCIENTISTS
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: The Pirates is a double edged cutlass. On one side, it is visually brilliant. On the other side, as a piece of entertainment it’s better off left lost at sea. A huge disappointment!
MOVIE: THE SITTER
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: Recommended if you are a solid Jonah Hill fan or looking for something to crack a few laughs and don't mind wasting a few hours in the process.
MOVIE: ON THE ROAD
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: I don't think this movie is for everyone, being that nothing really happens I wouldn't be surprised if many found it fairly dull. Still though there is a certain charm to it, just not much,
MOVIE: LOCKOUT
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: ThiS is watchable, solely from the Guy Pearce involvement and to be brutal about it, it’s more of a straight to dvd movie than anything else.
MOVIE: CONTRABAND
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: While not an absolute mess, there is a lot wrong with Contraband. It's good to waste two hours with, but if you want something substantial from a movie, look elsewhere.
MOVIE: FOR A GOOD TIME CALL
STAR RATING: 1
WE SAID: A movie that is just shooting blanks from the from the get go, best leave this one alone.... Seriously.
MOVIE: GHOST RIDER SPIRIT OF VENGEANCE
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: If you want to just go and see some very well done special effects by all means go and see this, but if you want to go see a movie that is genuinely worth watching then go to something else, it would seem comic fans will have to wait for the three films mentioned above in order to satisfy them this year.
MOVIE: THE HOUSE AT THE END OF THE STREET
STAR RATING: 1
WE SAID: Do yourself a favor and skip this one. We have more horrors coming in soon, maybe one will actually scare us.
MOVIE: JOHN CARTER
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: This is going to be a very tough sell on audiences. John Carter is incredibly disappointing, overlong and too complicated for its own good, which will bring you nothing but confusion and bewilderment. On the positive side, if you do fancy a movie that has a powerful ability to induce sleep, then..sadly this is it!
MOVIE: RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION
STAR RATING: 1
WE SAID: This film clearly had nobody caring about it at all, just seeing it as another cash cow and it shows in a big way. Nothing to see here really, nothing at all.
MOVIE: SAVAGES
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: Overall, this movie disappointed me. There is a strong story there, and it does have its moments, but the overall execution severely hurts it.
MOVIE: STITCHES
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: Shot through with a bit more sly humour and letting Noble's stage persona off the leash a bit, this could have been a lot better than it is. One for the gorehounds only.
MOVIE: TAKEN 2
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: Overall, if you fancy getting “taken” for a ride, albeit an incredibly unmemorable one, this is the movie for you. Granted you probably like the sound of farting into an empty bucket. Everybody else…ah what the hell. I can’t be arsed. JUST LIKE THE MOVIE!!!!
MOVIE: SILENT HILL: REVELATION
STAR RATING: 2
WE SAID: Another black mark against video game adaptions, Silent Hill: Revelation offers some unique and interesting visuals, but very little else
