The 8 Worst Movies of 2014


  • I mostly get to choose which movies I see, and I mostly choose movies that I think have a chance in hell of being good. So I'm sure there were worse movies released in 2014. That said, the eight movies that follow are pretty bad, and the bottom three or four or five are downright painful. My comments for each entry are pithy, so if you want to read more click on the link for the (generally verbose) review. Onward and downward! 
  • Worst of the year: The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 1
    8. The Hunger Games: Mockingjay, Part 1: Never has so much talent created so little for so many.
  • Worst of the year: Divergent
    7. Divergent: At least Katniss looked like she could kick ass.
  • Worst Movies of 2014: Robocop
    6. Robocop: The 1987 original was brilliant. I wouldn’t buy this one for a dollar.
  • Worst Movies of 2014: The Other Woman
    5. The Other Woman: Come back to the 9 to 5, Dabney Coleman, Dabney Coleman. 
  • Worst Movies of 2014: 300: Rise of an Empire
    4. 300: Rise of An Empire: It’s less fascistic than the first.
  • Worst Movies of 2014: Sin City 2: A Dame to Kill For
    3. Sin City: A Dame to Kill For: Sex + violence isn't supposed to be this boring.
  • Worst Movies of 2014: God's Not Dead
    2. God’s Not Dead: I don’t know about God but godawful is very much alive.
  • Worst Movies of 2014: Tusk
    1.Tusk: Kevin Smith recently said he’s reached the “I don’t give a fuck” portion of his career. It shows.
  • Worst Movies of 2014: Kevin Smith
    What's that you say? You have your own thoughts? Feel free to include them below. And if you're interested in the worst of past years, here you go: 2011, 2012, and 2013. May 2015 stink a little less.
